    Rios freely admitted he didn't throw more punches, he felt, if he had, he would have gotten KTFO! said it in the post fight press conference.

    just like all the other oppoenets like Mosely and Clottey.etc even Bradley was running like a dog. The only guys, and I give them the ultimate respect, to go in there and honestly try to win, vice just survive are, Margarito and Hatton, and look at those outcomes. and of course. Marquez.

    so maybe it was the right choice for Rios to pack it in, but he was basically a punching bag looking to go 12.

    Manny has nothing else to prove, he should seek out a fight with Mayweather and retire, if Money hasn't got the balls to accept the challenge. Pac is the greatest fighter of this generation. I'm going to miss him, we wont soon see the likes of a fighter as great and as exciting as Pac. Manny Pacquiao has done what we once thought was the impossible so many times that we now take it for granted, truly the greatest fighter Ive seen since the days of Duran, leonard, Hearns, Hagler on that level of greatness and its been my great privilege to have seen him in his prime.

    hey ******* how long have you been watching boxing? I know greatness when I see it, I have the comparative advantage of having seen true greatness, in different eras and at various levels, so please shut the fuk up or come up with a little more than this bull**** FFS.

    And all of the guys you mentioned have cast iron chins, Margarito too

    that's the only reason Pac hasn't KO'd anyone in a while

    he only takes iron chinned mfers, these guys cant be KO'd so he turns them into survival-mode punching bags for 12 rounds

    if they were like Khan they'd all get Hatton'd

    Mosley was 108 years old when Pac fought him, so take him off that list. The rest of those 3 to did put into a shell.

    Many guys throughout history who had a mix of handspeed, and power tend to make guys gun shy.

    An older Mosley didn't get dropped or go running against Alvarez, at the weight Mosley didn't belong, after getting emasculated by the midget.

    Pac's power made Mosley gun shy, that was a first

    He's NEVER been as timid as he was in the Pac fight

    one match later against Canelo he was fighting his heart out, same against Cano recently

    Pac's power is no joke, now combine it with his blistering speed, explosivity and awkwardness and you know why Floydette wants none of that

    Was Marquez in "survival mode" for all 4 fights and right before he put Pacquiao to sleep in the 4th fight?

    Except Pac is really 1-3 Marquez by most people's opinions.
