Problem is, Manny has one foot out the door. He really isn't even an active fighter anymore. Plus, the first two fights clearly showed Manny is a superior fighter. I just think its time to move on from Floyd and Manny both. And if they choose to return, which I'm sure they will. We can cross that bridge when it gets here. But personally, I honestly haven't considered either an active fighter since May 6 of this year.I prefer Pacquiao 3 personally, because I'm sure he'd eat Thurman or Porter alive, and Brook is 0 money and 0 legacy. Tim has been proving himself forever, so I'd personally like him to collect some more checks and let the new guys prove themselves a little more.
Pacquiao is a bona fide legend who will make Tim solid scratch, and is still a very good fighter. People like to say he's shot to excuse him from losing to Mayweather, but IMO Manny and Tim are the 2 best guys currently fighting at 147.
Its time for new blood. And for me, Timmy is kinda the last remaining of the old guard. And to me, in order to be considered the best welterweight on the planet, you need to go through Tim Bradley. Its time for all these young guys to step up and try and take hold of the division.Comment

In the lead up to this fight, alot of posters on here were picking Rios to not only win but KO Bradley, which surprised me. they underrated Bradley while overrating Rios..why? Rios has never showed the depth to compete..let alone defeat a fighter of Bradleys class.
Ive gotta start tracking my picks, been doing well with my breakdowns. I predicted a Bradley win just not by KO..i mean wow. Good win for DS. My original breakdown i had Bradley out boxing Rios early to mid with Rios coming on late while Bradley fades...who saw Bradlet KOing Rios? i think that surprised alot of us.
Had nothing to do with Rios being the better fighter but had everything to do with Bradley's propensity to fight his opponents fight by getting into slugfests.
The probability of Bradley forgetting to box and engage in a brawl is quite high and probably will always be.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves Richard. He beat up on Rios...not a top WW, give it a fight or two more then you can start approaching that. Let's actually see if Atlas can drill some shhh out of Bradley first, hopefully they do away with the going rambo mentality Bradley has when he has better tools.Comment

A lot of people are this site are just fanboys who don't watch boxing unless their favorite guys are on. According to them 99% of all boxers (in other words, not their favorite boxers) are bums, duck other people, are on PEDs, and/or pay off fighters. Just ignore the trolls. Anyone who picked Rios to win was either a fan, troll, ******ed, or combination of the threeIn the lead up to this fight, alot of posters on here were picking Rios to not only win but KO Bradley, which surprised me. they underrated Bradley while overrating Rios..why?
