    Eventhough it looks likes Pac is going to get this one, the fight to me is getting very exciting on both ends. I keep reading articles how both camps are training very hard for the fight.

      Both camps training hard? I read Pacquiao looked horrible in sparring and has been really distracted lately because his movie just came out.

      Freddie Roach even admitted that he's already looking past Larios and he's already planning Manny's strategy for the rubber match with Morales.

      Things are not looking good in the Pacquiao camp and this fight has an upset written all over it.

          Pacquiao better stay focused on the task at hand, I hate when fighters overlook guys and look to the future. Pac is one of my favorite fighters in the sport at this time, he has been since I saw him fight Juan Manuel Marquez.

          He may have some ring rust or be distracted but Larios is still going to be on the end of a "Pacman Storm".

            I don't know, it's a hard call because Larios conditioning seems to be on par with Juan Manuel Marquez. They both conditioning freaks and that's what let Marquez survive the opening round. Manny on the other hand started nearly 1 month later in training than Larios and has looked sluggish in the ring as of late they say. They also blame that on the movie and distractions though say he will be back to normal within a couple of days. I really hope he doesn't get upset by Larios because he's got a lot of great things in the future to come though Manny is the kind that can lack after a big win. He did it after Barrera against Marquez, and then he barely prepared against Fahsan 3K and was completely exhausted by the 3rd and 4th round. He won against Hector though looked really tired following that final fury on Hector at the end of the 6th. I hope he gets Larios outta there early if he has any chance of winning.

              Bigger than tyson/douglas, you're kidding right?

              I'd say Larios will be a 3-1 underdog(5-1 at most) at the time of the fight. On the other hand, Douglas was a 40-1 underdog. Pac doesn't have the aura of invincibility that Tyson had, not even close. Trust me, Larios will put up a good fight, he will be a lot stronger @ 130 compared to 122 where he was killing himself to make weight.

              About my sig, Larry tried to kiss JCC and when JCC smelled the alcohol in his breathe, he cursed him out.

                Larios is a good boxer. But he won't be able to withstand the heat that Pac will bring. He's just a little too small.
