Comments Thread For: Pacquiao, Rios Trade Words Over Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[KaL-EL]

Did anyone actually watched the interview?

When pac said "He's happy because hes cheering for floyd"...he was talking to Steven A. Smith not Rios.

Here's the vid if anybody missed it.

Stephen A. Smith can't keep Floyds name out of his mouth as usual.

Mayweather has never officially been knocked down. Pacquiao has been knocked down a number of times, and he was knocked out cold by a single punch from a fighter that Mayweather practically shut out. Since Mayweather so easily beat Marquez, and Pacquiao struggled and failed to put Marquez away in four fights, I think Mayweather would give Pacquiao a lot of problems.

See how easy it is to twist logic to justify what you want to happen in a fight?

How many times did Roy Jokes taste canvas before Tarver knocked him out?

I thought he was saying that Stephan A. was happy because Rios was cheering for Floyd cause Stephan is Pro Floyd over Pac.

Pacquiao seems more vocal about Mayweather now.

Good interview and thanks for the vid. I want bam bam to win but Mannys a good dude. Had me rolling with his reactions towards Stephen a. It's funny that the fighters who look like straight "dorks" in manny p and triple g are some of the fighters who "bring the pain" the most lol

[JOM'S]

lolz both mayweather and pacquiao using the other's name in promoting their fight...

IMHO 2 years ago PAC-PBF would have been a better fight, manny at his peak and floyd just coming back ....

[hyeduk]

its funny, but Rios wont go past the 7th round !!!!!!!!!

Everyone's always talking about Floyd taking easy fights but they're practically begging for him to face what could possibly be his easiest in Pacquiao. I never thought there was anything that Manny brought to the table that would trouble Floyd, nothing. Rios is giving his honest opinion. Pacquiao's a good fighter, one of the best in this era, but in what world does he ever beat Floyd in? (waits for *******s to attack me)

In what world would Floyd have took that risk?

[A-Wolf]

Floyd doesn't seem interested in giving up his footspeed advantage. Maybe that's what Pacquiao might have been trying to say. "Running" is code for various things. Rios is correct however. Floyd has stood his ground the last few years.

He figured out he can be effective - no, imposing when he wants to be. Floyd has become a more consistently punishing fighter. He still jumps back halfway across the ring on defense that said. Maybe something else Manny was trying to say. Floyd "runs" all over the place even in these fights he's unleashing from the center of the ring.
