    Rios, in all previous fights, was an all-action fighter. He turned Clottey for this fight and turned into point -blank, survival mode!!!

      I thought it was a decent fight. Pacquiao was just far superior. It was a good comeback fight. People seem to forget that Pacquiao hasn't fought in a year.

        Rios just isn't on this level.

        When you lack skill your "all action style" won't do you any good on the elite level.

          It's only boring when the fighter you're strongly rooting against is dominating all night and his opponent can't do anything offensively. That's why so many people think Mayweather is boring. You end up discrediting the overmatched opponent and forgetting the superior performance of the fighter you hate.

            Most wide UD's are boring to some extent because the nature of the fight has one direction and no flow from round to round, but consistency.

            Pac made Rios look like an extra bum that he is. Robert Garcia looked like a Mcdonald's worker and Team Rios are quiet which is good.

            Personally I enjoyed it, like I did May Canelo, Rigo Donaire but of course it could have been better with a few KD's etc...

                I wouldn't have had a problem with the fight as to anyone with a brain it was already known what would go down, but the undercard was complete boo-boo. Should have been on free HBO.

                    But I thought Rios was suppose to have this "EXCITING STYLE"? Nothing is exciting about a one sided fight, it takes two to put on a good fight REGARDLESS of certain fighters "STYLES"

                    Even the fighter with the most "BORING STYLE" can be in a exciting fight if you match him up with someone that will bring the best out of them

                    Rios was a Heavy Bag basically, it was like watching Pacquiao punch on a Heavybag for 12 Rounds

                      Absolute snooze fest. Sparring that they called a "fight".
