    Rios Said "I'm no Margarito, I'm no punching bag"

    Rios people were disrespecting Margarito going into the fight, calling him a punching bag.Who did better against Pacquiao? Did one come to fight more than the other? Who deserves more respect between Rios and Margarito, performance wise? Did you lose respect for one of them after the fight?

    Margarito did better, he actually did some halfway decent bodywork in the middle rounds. Rios never landed anything of note, not once.

      Margarito hurt Pacquaio and tried until the last bell.

      Rios didn't do much better than Joshua Clottey.

        Yeah, I think that was a very bad performance by Rios. The fight was supposed to be a war, but it was kind of a dissapointment. Manny did his part, but Rios looked like he was happy to survive, and didn't try to win at all.

          Margarito tried to win. Rios just believed that surviving would earn him the "no punching bag" moral victory.

          More importantly, Margarito folds Rios like a lawn chair.

              Both were easy work for Pacquiao. I thought Margarito tried to win more though, Rios went quickly into a shell and hardly threw a thing.

                  For me to say Margarito is a better fighter than you, you must really suck. Rios really sucks.
