Im glad you think so. As a Pac fan, Id like it if people thought stopping Rios is an achievement in some way for Pac. I know much better though. This is ATG vs. B level fighter.
He could not beat prime Pacquiao, a post-slept Manny? Who knows? Brandon Rios isn't on Manny's level, but things might have changed drastically since the Marquez KO.
Rios has two fucntioning feet and hands, so yes he can win. If Pac get caught sleeping it could be an upset. I do believe pac is the better fighter in every way, but stranger things have happen.
The possibility exists, but in all probability Pac will destroy him with his speed. Now, if Pac has trouble taking a punch, then the odds change dramatically.
Even a PDS PAC will roll over on Bam Bam. I think the speed of PAC is going to shock:shock: Bam Bam very early:smoke
You beat Pac by taking away his speed. You out muscle him, hands up, triple jab your way in, throw him around and walk right through him. When he sees his punches have no effect, and that his opponent is getting stronger, he will panic. You panic, you get tired. Show him no respect whatsoever. Thats how Rios can bring the dog out in Pac. The worst thing that Rios can do is wait and pose. You cant give Pac time to get into a rhythum.
I still say Bam Bam will be shocked by the hand and foot speed of PAC:shock: Game plan goes out the window:nut Bam Bam goes to pressure with walking into shot after shot until the bell rings inside his skull:rofl :smoke
Only if Pac has nothing left, Manny holds advantage in power, speed, skill set, activity rate, defense, possibly chin (he's taken some hard **** from much bigger guys). Pac should win but if he's over the hill the fight will get interesting.
