    This reminds me of Roy Jones' fight with Glen Johnson after his KO against Tarver. I think Manny and Roy are similar because they both depend on their physical gifts and not pure boxing skills. Plus, that aura of invincibility is gone. Like Johnson for Roy, Rios is all wrong for Manny as a comeback fight. This kid hits hard and is relentless. Plus, he has a very good chin. I don't see Manny being that same hungry lion he was 4 or 5 years ago. This is an opportunity of a lifetime for Brandon and he will be extremely focused. That is a dangerous situation for Manny. I guess the question is, can Manny's chin hold up? It will definitely get tested in this fight.
    Finally a sensible non biased post

      Sorry man, I meant to say "Didn't you pick". My mistake must have mixed you up with someone else.

        yeah man lol, thats an insult, Guerrero is slow as molasses and tailor made for Floyd. Canelo is tailormade but at least he has a punchers chance.


        I picked Marquez to KO Manny while all the Pac haters were saying I was just trying to hype up the fight, and they said nobody wanted to watch it, yet it turned out to be worht more than 100 bucks in terms of action for big fights so it lived up to the hype.

        This fight with Rios and Pacman will be exciting as long as it lasts, but the moment Pacman gets hit I fear he will fall asleep again. Rios is no joke, you never take an aggressive hungry puncher with an iron chin in a fight after you get knocked out.

        Roy Jones Jr took on Glen Johnson because he wasn't a known puncher and he was tailormade for Him, Jones got knocked out by Johnson. Rios on the other hand is more aggressive, has faster punches than Glen Johnson and hits harder than Johnson for his weight.

        This is a dangerous fight, and my predictions are usually never wrong, whenever I make knockout predictions I am right, most of the time.

        I said Mattysse would KO Dallas Jr as well.

          pac always comes off as having that carefree attitude lol...but i think he's 100% focused for this fight knowing his career might be on the line...at least i hope he is.

            Its offical. Rios is punch drunk. He said that Floyd took a two year lay off and came back on top. :AYWOoD:

            Finish Him Manny!

              thats because they dont know anything about boxing! i hate when these two bozos talk about boxing. they talked about floyd more than the actual fight.

                Pac wins by descision but wouldn't be surprised if he scores a k.o. somewhere in the fight.
