Pacquiao vs. Rios result/predictions

[broblin]

Pac hasn't had a KO in 2 years, has none at 147, and Rios has never been knocked out.

Why on earth are so many betting on that?

UD.

A fair point. I was originally going to put UD as well, and it wouldn't surprise me in the least if it went that way.

However, Rios is far too easy to hit and Pacquiao is a big step up in class for him. I'm going with late round stoppage on this one.

Pacquiao wins this by late KO/TKO. A fighter of his caliber shouldn't lose to someone like Rios. If he does it's game over for Manny. Rios is very tough, but his style is perfect for Pacquiao.

I know what's going to happen. If Manny wins by decision, he'll refer back to his post in this thread, where he said "Rios by KO, or Pacquiao by decision" and claim to still be right.

John you are silly.

I picked JMM by KO with the same right hand.

I said before I study fights, I made a bold prediction Rios by KO.

I also said Rios will beat Abril by decision and he did.

Listen why I said Pacman by decision because I was showing you a possible outcome, do you understand how to study and analyze a fight?

The only way Pac can win is by decision, his power at 147 is nothing, Margarito said it himself. Also Marquez was never hurt at 147 by MAnny, while Bradley wobbled him.

How can Pac KO a guy with a granite chin much bigger than him? so if Pac were to win its by decision and he would have to avoid getting hit, and we all know Pac always gets hit.

My prediction still stands Rios by KO.

So don't get it twisted, some of you guys are pathetic always trying to attack me, look at my record.

just a few more to refresh your memory:

JMM KO Pacquiao with the same right hand before 6 rounds I predicted it.
Lucas to KO Dallas Jr
Danny Garcia to beat Lucas
Rios decisions Abril
Wlad over Povetkin
Floyd over Canelo
Bradley outboxing Marquez
I think I even picked Marquez by KO over Likar Ramos a long time ago.
I also said that Canelo would beat Austin Trout.

I have only been wrong a few times the last time I was wrong was Nonito Donaire KO over Rigondeaux.

Manny. There is no way Rios wins this. He doesn't have the punching power to KO Manny either. The shots Marquez hit him with were perfectly set up.

Rios doesn't have that RING IQ or the speed/accuracy to pull this off. People confuse Manny with being some come forward brawler but really he prefers to fight at range and only fights in close for a second or 2 and then gets out. I will be SHOCKED if Rios wins.

[sugarsmosley]

Rios by KO or Pacman by decision.

Pacman has no power at 147. Rios has the size, the power, and the chin and youth advantage.

Pacman only has experience, his chin is done, he is tiny compared to Rios, and he has no power at 147 even Margarito laughed in the corner and said he doesn't hit hard.

But my main bold prediction is Rios by KO via jab in the 3rd round.

I predicted Lucas to KO Dallas Jr, Danny Garcia to beat Lucas, Wlad to beat Povetkin, JMm to KO Pacman, Bhop to beat Cloud, Stevenson to stop Cloud, Bradley to beat Marquez, Floyd to out box Canelo, and a few others.

put your money where your mouth is and put something down on rios then.

put your money where your mouth is and put something down on rios then.

I already got a bet with someone here.

[Boxing Goat]

Assuming Pacquiao is the guy who fights like he did before he planked vs. Marquez, he should stop Rios in an all action fight.

Pacquiao will want to defend Roach's honor.

[Bull24]

If Pacquiao is fully recovered from the last fight I expect him to win a dominating decision, like he did over Margarito.

[avnikuka]

HAHAAHAHAHAHA Pacman couldn't even hurt Marquez in the 3rd or 4th fights, while pillow fist Bradley had JMM hurt a few times.

I can't wait to laugh in your faces. You guys all better put in your sig that Hectari is the man on predictions never doubt him.

What is this ****** talking about. Pacquiao not only knocked him down, he totally had him punch drunk with the right hand, and he also destroyed his face. You don't know what your talking about.

Rios is going to get the beating of a life. I saw you saying Pacquiao "has no power at 147" All the while he Ko'd Cotto, Hit Mosley with the hardest shot he's ever been hit with, and totally ruined Margarito.

As a matter of fact, I feel that if pacquiao didn't (Willingly) slow down on Margarito, he might have killed him. That's how I feel.
