    Below is from a previous post of mine

    Rios is going to be 160lbs plus on fight night against Manny who will be about 150lbs. Rios is going to be even stronger and his chin will be sturdier. I still got Pac by late rounds KO because Rios's defense is too leaky (he's not superman afterall) but whoever thinks this fight won't be fun while is last is on something... This will be a fight that even if in defeat Rios's Name will grow way bigger with a spirited performance and get him more money fights. I predict Manny will struggle in this fight and even be hurt multiple times but triumph in the end to win a thrilling FOTY!
    Thats what im saying. It'll be great. I was on my run today and for some reason it just hit me.. pacquiao vs rios? Thats a good fn fight. Yea, its far away but still..

      Rios is supposed to get destroyed, I don't see a barn burner in the making.

          don't get excited for fights until it's fight night.

            PAC/Rios will probably be the best action fight of all three though.
            Pretty much, its a good tv fight which Pac should win by a stoppage if he still has it.

              I'am sleeping on this fight if scum bag Arum doesn't put a decent undercard to this PPV. If Pac beat Rios who cares if Rios Ko's Pac then the Pacman was shot.

                I'm not sleeping on this fight..I'm actually excited for it,this really could turn out to be a FOTY or a more competitive fight then giving credit for tbh..Rios is not going to have respect for Pac,he's coming to win..That with in it self is going to be great..With both fighters styles..

                    This is a tune-up for pacman, but it will be an extremely entertaining tune-up. Make no mistake this fight is basically to see what pacman has left before he has another big fight.

                    Plus theres still like 3 months till the fight.

                      People have given up on proper matchups and are buying "entertainment". Pacquiao provides entertainment. Garcia-Matthysse is entertainment. Canelo-Floyd is not...that's why it's called an "event"....like the eclipse.
