Even Arum told yopu this was a cherry pick

From a neutral standpoint, I wouldn't find a one sided beating to be "entertaining" per say whether it's Mayweather-Guererro or Pacquaio-Margarito, for example. Neither were entertaining fights IMO.

If Pacquaio's declined then it could be entertaining but I doubt he's declined enough to let Rios be competitive with him.

when im bored, i pop in PAC-Diaz...



but to your point, i'm hearing/reading a lot of bad things from PAC's camp...there's a lot of smoke n mirrors going on right now so you just might be in for an entertaining fight

yeah he is. he's also -$450 and a 4-1 favorite. this fight, on paper, is a blowout. if you don't like watching blowouts on paper-be consistent.

I guess if pac is winning on paper then theirs no need for the fight. I mean on paper Floyd beats Martinez then Martinez should just hand over the middleweight crown to him, cause Floyd wins in paper.

Pac is coming off a KTFO loss... You don't come back from those. Watch RJJ vs Johnson. So for you, it should be entertaining

Sometimes you do come back.

Some people recover from bad KO loss's, some don't.

We'll find out next week. I'll be watching for sure.

This is actually not a bad fight. It just should not be on PPV.

Pac is coming off 2 losses and one of them was pretty bad so i have zero problem with him taking a tune-up but people should not have to put up $50 to see it.

Pac/De La Hoya was on PPV as it should be but De la hoya/Forbes wasnt and that was the right thing to do. It wasnt a ppv fight just like pac/rios isnt. This should only be a ppv if manny was rematching bradley or jmm.

Add to the fact that the undercard is crap it should not be a ppv. If you put it on regular hbo then no problem. I would hope it did 2-3 mil views but when you start paying extra for crap then guess what? The promoters will think it fine to charge for more crap next month. Then next thing you know all alvarado/prodon type matches will be on ppv and thats not acceptable.

thats exactly why pacs fans are buying this fight -to see pac win a one sided beatdown. why cant they just admit it.

No one comes back from a KTFO loss. No one, not even RJJ

[-PBP-]

so you wanna pay to watch two fighters coming off loss?

I am but i dont want to and would prefer to pay for winners

So if Canelo fought Angulo next you wouldn't prefer to pay the PPV?

Really? Like what?

I haven't been following closely. I've seen Pacquaio on the pads and he looks fast and sharp but we know that doesn't really mean much.

I'll be watching most definitely. I always watch Pacquaio's fights even if I think it's a joke of a fight, haven't missed one of his since, I don't even know.

Definitely not going to miss this considering no one has a clue where he's at in his career, is he done? Or isn't he? I'm looking forward to it.

Luckily it's on Boxnation here too so we don't have to pay the usual extra £15.

So if Canelo fought Angulo next you wouldn't prefer to pay the PPV?

No i wouldnt. I would as i am for this one but i wouldnt want to and would be here complaining that it shouldnt be on PPV. And im a Canelo fan

Of course they do.

There's been a lot more KO loss's in history than Roy Jones Jr.

Or maybe their buying it because they're a fan of his?? U ever thought about that? What's with u people trying so hard to discredit this fight? Don't like it, cool, just move along. U made ur point about how u feel u ain't gotta go in every PAC thread to express your feelings over and over. Sure rios may be made to order for PAC but don't like like rios is pillow fisted or has a glass chin. This won't be easy for manny regardless of how u feel. Out of the opponents that was given to PAC rios was the best fit, this doesn't mean he's the easiest.
