I Hope Pacquiao Comes To Fight In The Rematch

rios wants a toe2toe fight. Pac never gave him that, rios couldn't let his hands go because pac just used speed and angles to bewilder rios.

For all those saying rios covered up out of fear of being ko'd, pac also admitted to being hurt once during the fight... and i mean can you imagine if floyd moved like pacquiao did in that fight? jesus he'd be getting slaughtered for running and moving all the time and not fighting... lol

 

Pac is an exciting fighter, Bradley puts me to sleep. Pac has already beaten Bradley once and Provodnikov left Bradley on the canvas only to be cheated by biased judges.............

 

You're selling him short. Bradley is elite level. His resume speaks for itself.

 

pac is 'one fight away' from starting the downward spiral for me, and that has nothing to do with the outcome of the JMM fight
he's been a pro a long, long time, and his style of fighting isn't conducive to 'middle-age heroics'. those tenths of a second are about due to start showing through in his fights

 

These are the words of Rios. He came to fight but he got mind-f*cked because he gets countered everytime he throws! LOL!

“Honestly, it was speed, man. The speed really got to me. It was really a factor. I had some guys in sparring with speed but this guy had tremendous speed,” said Rios. “I think also too it had to do with the southpaw [style]. I hadn’t fought a southpaw in a really long time. I was never used to a southpaw until Pacquiao. So sparring southpaws in the gym, they weren’t as great a southpaw as [Pacquiao]. He’s not only a unique southpaw but [the most] awkward southpaw out there and that what was had a lot to do with it.”

Rios said he was mesmerized by Pacquiao’s speed to the point of being “mind-f*cked,” which he explained was a kind of tunnel vision.

“Because honestly, after the second round, I got frustrated I just, like…once you get mind-f*cked in a fight, you lose the fight. You lose everything you have to do. You forget about the game plan; you forget about everything because you’re mind-f*cked. I was just like stuck, so that’s what happened,” explained Rios. “We had a great game plan going in. I was executing it in the gym. I was doing everything. I was doing a great job. Then all of a sudden and I get to the fight and we were doing great out there. We were out there for two weeks and I was still sparring and everything. I was still doing a great job still and then on fight night, I fought him; after the first round, I got a little bit confused. And then the second round, I was just totally mind-f*cked. I just, it just seemed like everything I’d throw, I was going to get countered. Every time I tried to do something, I was going to get caught. I really got mind-f*cked. It’s just one of those things. I fought one of the best southpaws in the world and not just a southpaw but one who is one of the best in the world, so f*ck it.”

 

Rios trained for 5 months and was looking Margarto ese by the 6th round. Bradley has a tough skin on his face. I think his chin is suspect though. But he'll be hiding that all night and staying away. It will be a tough fight. Because Pacquiao can't fight a runner that well. He's ok when they come to him.

 

To be honest this has the makings of a great fight

Bradley has said Provo hits like a monster compared to Pac, and he suvived that without running

Pac will really come to fight this time too. I expect fireworks then Pac by KO

 

Styles make fights and Bradley doesn't fight like DLH or Cotto. Bradley is one of those fighters that's impossible to look impressive against.

 

Maybe you're right but Pacman has his own attributes that makes him one of those so called elite boxers. It is honest to say that Pac is not very good when it comes to cutting-off the ring, but I don't see it as his weakness. We have seen Pac's opponents dance around the ring trying to get away from Pac's range to survive the rounds and hope for a lucky break. But Pac is an explosive type of boxer and that why he is an exciting boxer to watch. Even if he is winning the fight, he does not stop coming.

Coto, Clottey, Mosley, Bradley, and Rios did not want to engage with Pac on the later rounds. They were losing the fight and just trying to survive--and yes, I included Bradley. De La Hoya did not want to run, so he quit atsch. Margarito did not want to quit, so Pac continued to punish him ( the ref looked like he's enjoying the scene so the fight continued until the end and Pac had no choice but "carefully" punish him :rofl ).

Once Pac felt that he is losing the fight, cutting the ring is not a problem to him. During his last encounter against his nemesis, Marquez, Pac made a biggest mistake that he will not ever forget.

 

Time will tell. My cash is on Timmy though. he's got a certain swagger to him now. He knows how good he is. Timmy 116-112.

 

Agreed, his recovery ability, along with his workrate, awkward angles, and weird combinations, its hard to look great against Bradley.

 

I can see it goes either way. I want Pac to win and knock Bradley out because that is what he needs at this point of his career but I'll be content if he can box Bradley to a UD. A good possibility that it goes into distance because I know Pac wouldn't want to make the same mistake, and he knows it because that memory is still fresh to him.

 

I think Bradley will take the rematch too

 

yea even freddy said provo hits harder then pacquaio not realy suprised

 

Tell us how you really feel.....
