    :lol: And? They were just wins. Not good wins. Being a career featherweight that struggles with Aydin and beats an overrated, damaged Berto does not suddenly qualify you as a decent opponent just because you're coming off a 'win'. Quality, talent, styles, etc, play a role, too. And when you consider them, Guerrero offered nothing (nothing!) to trouble Floyd.

    And if coming off wins and losses is so important, why aren't we looking at the fact that Pacquiao himself is coming off almost three losses in a row? Fact - Pac vs Rios is more competitive and closer matched than May vs Guerrero. So if there was ever an opportunity for you guys to **** on a matchup, it would be for the latter - as evident by what we saw on Sat night. :good

    Why dont you stop talking utter **** calling Rios a bum then?

    Some real idiots on here. I appreciate Floyd and Manny, Rios is arguably better than Guerrero, and Manny has lost his last two fights yet Floyd is the pound for pound king.

    You might think its funny abusing fighters for no reason but real boxing fans do not, so cop yourself on son.

    Yes, he should have fought a great boxer like guerrero who was fighting at lightweight 2 fights ago or ortiz who has destroyed everyone in his path LOL

    Rios is better than guerrero and ortiz, guess who fought them?

    you call bam bam a punching bag but what the hell are ortiz and guerrero? some slick boxer? they beat a bum in berto to get the floyd fight? seriously?

    the guys floyd fights also have no movement and are easy to hit as they stay stationary and just move forward like fools

    type some sense before you make a thread

    Alvarado won but he got ****ed up yo! looked like he loss judging by his face yo! his face was a mess. Rios is a bulldog that comes to fight.Alvarado ran like a sissy. Rios is stronger and WON by KTFO over alvarado anyway in their first fight. Alvarado just fought like a slick boxer in the rematch. Moving, running and slugging at times.
