    Hell both are coming off of loses,but to make it at 147 would be a joke as Rios has 0 fights there.But **** it,would be a entertaining fight

    Rather see Pacquiao Vs. Alvarado
    (Better for Pac's health)

    would rather see it than pac alvarado.

    more entertaining, better build up.

    Would be an awesome fight.

    TO people complaining about weight, i wouldn't. Weight won't be an issue. It wouldn't suprise me if Rios was bigger than Pac on the night.

    if rios was a smaller guy there would be reason to be mad about him fighting a 140 pounder at 147. but the fact is rios is bigger then pac and will out weigh him. I think this will only benefit rios as he wont havt to drain 7 more pounds.
    This fight scares me as a pac fan. If his chin isnt cracked i believe pac picks him apart, that is if it can hold up to what rios has to offer..


    Who do you guys think will win?

    Figured this was coming for a while now... It'll be entertaining and will let Pac look amazing again. Wonder what weight it will be.

    If Rios has to face Pac for his very first fight at 147 it's okay, he's big anyways. :lol::lol::patsch

    Pac wins this.

    Rios might win but, he takes way too much punishment for his own good. :patsch

    This fight might be one of his last.

    To anyone who complains about this. Yes i get it's not the toughest challenge, and i'm sure hater will love complaining about Pac fighting a fighter coming off a loss.

    But the plus side, this fight has fight of the year written all over it!!

    As Boxing Fans we can't ask for more than that

    I hope Pac moves down to 140 I think it will be better for him he has weighed in at 147 on the dot in his last two fight an lost (I no he beat Bradley but he didn't look good) but when he went to 140 to fight Hatton he looked great I think its the best weight for him an he should fight Rios there also Alvarado deserved the fight more but I will be happy if Rios gets the fight because am a fan of him an Pac an it will be a exciting fight.

    Considering the amount of crying *****s have come out with regarding Canelo's fight night weight, then Rios comes in at 161 and Alvarado at 158 - so I hardly think weight is an issue. If anything these guys will be stronger at 147 as they won't have to drain as much to make 140 :roll:
