Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios Prediction and Discussion Master Thread

[NearHypnos]

I really do think turtle shell Clottey, one-eye Margarito and grandpa Mosley have put up more of a fight than Rios

Mosley was a great fighter...Rios is a less effective, fatter yet smaller Margo with less skills (Marg could at least put his hands in you) and Clottey at least... was semi effective when he threw those 4 times. Whatever thats worth...

Rios isn't in this league of fighter. Not even close.

Exciting fights. Two fighters with crowd pleasing styles. Expect fireworks. FOTY candidate.

[Hougigo]

Does Rios really think e's going to win a cision like this?

[WESS]

Like I said, **** fight. Bob did his job in making a fight where Pac would look good. However nobodies buying into this bull****.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

This fight is smoke and mirrors. Talk about tailored made. Jesus Rios.


8-0 Manny....

Easy people, Pac just came from a very long lay off and a brutal KO loss, what do you want him to do? Be aggressive as **** and get KOed again?! You're saying he's past it AND YET HE'S DESTROYING A YOUNG PRIME FIGHTER IN RIOS! How about that?!

Let Manny enjoy his comeback fight, let him get into his groove, he can KO Rios if he wanted anytime for **** sake! What's important is, he's back fighting! And right now you're watching a 'retireable' legend toy with a young gun!

lol this just looks like a casual heavy bag session for Pac. Rios should just change his name to EVERLAST

Exactly. This is a "get better" fight for Manny, and it's been perfect so far. Let him get the rounds in and feel comfortable. He's cruising to an easy UD and I don't blame him.
