Rios got wobbly legs when Pac caught him with a solid right hook then followed with a straight left. That's for sure. There were also some solid left straights to the body that backed Rios. And there were times when Pac countered Rios with a straight left that really put the brakes on Rios' assault. And everytime he got caught we a right hook he would back up a bit. So no Rios, you got hurt multiple times and was even wobbled in at least 1 situation.
He's in denial. Pacquiao rocked him a few time. But Rios is not an easy opponent for anyone. This is what I said before the fight. YES! He might not be fast and slick. But the guy is tough and strong and is not easy to do combat with.
not true. he couldn't go for the ko cause he was getting a good old fashioned FLOGGING!!!!! he just can't bring himself to say it, that's all.
thats your bodys response to the pressure of a punch ?.... i think you need to step between the ropes mate..
his face was way too swollen to say he's not hurt. if he was fighting malignaggi sure,but not when ur face is all bruised up and eyes swelling shut can you say u didnt feel anything.
He also became gun shy in the 12th and his legs looked a bit unsteady for the entire round. I'd say he was on his last legs, luckily for him there's no 13th round.
Pac could have stopped Rios if he had wanted to. It so appears that Rios is a liar......................Rios was hurt and was ready to go in the 12th round!
