    Rios has a lot of power. I wonder if Pac would be able to take one of his punches :-(

    Rios would not be able to time him as well as Marquez, Pac still beats Rios easy IMO

    Even if Pacquiao's punch resistance is gone, he'd still probably beat the hell out of crude ass Rios.

    If Manny boxes as well as he did early against JMM, he'll win handily. Pacquiao would see everything coming at him.

    The Pacquiao from last night would absolutely destroy Brandon Rios.
    I'm talking serious punishment.

    Actually, I think he should take that fight next and then consider retiring. He'll get a big win and look great doing it, could retire happy. Unless the Mayweather fight is still possible, I don't see much else out there for him after that. Personally don't want to see he and Juan go at it again.

    Pacquiao will learn not to rush in like that and also Rios is not Marquez.

    Rios doesn't really possess one punch power. His power is definitely more of the accumulation variety; and his relentless pressure would work against him versus Pac.

    It actually makes more sense now than it would have had Pac won.

    JMM ought to fight Bradley next and the winners of the two matches at some point should square off.

    Pac also hits harder than Alvarado who pretty much hit Rios at will.

    Is a Rios fight a wise choice coming off a devestating KO loss tho?

    Only time will tell as to how Pac's faculties respond to such a devastating ko.

    Assuming that he can recover without a significant reduction in punch resistance, a Rios matchup would be ideal, IMO.

    Rios is tailor made for him. Good farewell fight for Pac if he takes it.
