Who performed better vs Rios: Danny or Old Pacquiao?

[Outworn]

Definitely Pacquiao and he beat an enhanced Rios while Danny The ****** struggled with a past prime Rios.

so much eastern euro and pac fart bias in this thread LOL

eastern euros going crazy.


of course danny performed better. took the heat rattled rios and stopped him. can be argued that pac faced a fresher rios but who cares. rios is only 31 and looked to be in the best shape of his life. even in the pac fight he looked drained.


garcia doing better and stopping rios doesn't mean danny is a overall better fighter then pac whats so ever. just means danny laid a a** whopping on rios and pac didin't. just to get things clear with the eastern euro crowd.


christ.

Danny looked like horse crap in that fight, he was getting hit way too much and trapped on the ropes by a sluggish ass war torn damaged Rios.

The one thing that was weird is Rios didnt fear Garcias power until he landed that sneak right that dropped him hard, with Pacquiao Rios was the one who didnt really go forward and Pac even had him going back in the fight a few times, Pac was turning Rios, while Garcia was running back and going back to the ropes.



Pacquiao coming off the most vicious KO of his career boxed circles around Rios and didn't even get touched it was a masterclass, although Rios didn't get to eat his Quaker oats that morning, you have to give Pac the nod here

Garcia only looked good with that KO.

Garcia is strong though, the guy has an iron chin and serious power and great conditioning.

garcia almost tooks rios head off. pac pott shotted his way to a UD. garcia went in a battle tit for tat & almost took his head off. as i said. eastern euro fans run with what ever u think. inflate the votes. no one cares.



respect to rios regardless.

Rios came to fight, he been a scrub anyway. I thought Rios died for a second --- Garcia shellacked him!

The performance was horrible if the ko never happened and it went to the cards it would probabaly be laughed at that garcia struggled with a basic plodding slow come forward war damaged rios, only thing That saves garcia is his ability to take a shot and his one punch power. Rios was touching him up and making him run and trapping him, pacman put a clinic on rios rarely letting rios trap him, pac would spin right out and throw his combos.

1. Pacquiao is better than Garcia.
2. Pacquiao's style is different than Garcia's.
3. Garcia is just coming off his first loss.
4. Garcia had some ring rust.

I think those are reasonable things to mention.

People are forgetting Rios was juiced to the gills in the manny fight.

Old Manny wasn't being hit so... I guess maybe you say him?

rios was suppose to be a cherry pick fight for manny but the truth is, manny was the cherry pick fight for rios! at least that's what team rios thought.

team rios came into that fight with so much confidence. they felt they got manny at the right time right after that ko from marquez.
