    Even current Sugar Ray Leonard would probably still handle Rios...

    I don't see Rios cracking the Top 10 at Welterweight anytime soon...

    That's the old punching bag. These new ones use different type of sand, they're much better and improved.

    I would have given it a chance if he said "might".


    Honestly though, there could be 2 Brandons in there swapping each round and Pacquiao would still tap their asses.

    "I'm back, I"m back, I"m back!!!"
    Brandon Rios was exulting atop the ring ropes having just stopped a fighter he knew to well had zero in the tank.
    A complete punching bag was Mike Alvarado and Rios knew that from the first minute of the fight.

    Rios knows damn well he's not at that level to compete against the best. Of course its in his best interest to hype himself and land a big fight. However, shame on those that fall for the bait.

    A win over a completely shot Alvarado should'nt land one a big fight, but this is boxing and it more than likely has. :nut

    Brandon's right though. Pacquiao would have much more trouble with his fists because they would be all sore and a bit swollen from repeatedly connecting with Rios' face.
