    If PAC fights Rios from the inside --- he loses. Not strong enough, not tough enough, plus doesn't have the stamina for a long grueling fight.

    Brandon Rios style requires a close quarters brawl Manny will brawl with guys but doesn't in fight

    Expect Manny to dominate early, if there is no stoppage Rios my come on late when Manny might slow down

    Outside chance Mannys legs or conditioning aren't there and Rios gets the geography he needs and it's a good fight, doubt it

    It shouldn't be. Pac is levels above Bam Bam as a boxer, imo.

    However, if Manny is seriously diminished from KTFO6, Rios does have some pop, a lot of stamina and the killer instinct. :bbb

    For the record: I think Manny is gonna put a severe beating on poor Bam Bam and I hope his corner will throw in the towel when the obvious class difference begins to extract a very high price from him.

    any fight after a brutal KO like that is dangerous - i think this fight, however, is taylor made for pac

    if he gets KO'd i want to see him retire

    Yeah because Rios with no footwork will catch Pac to land body punches, i got news for you if Rios is close enough for body punches Pac will land 3 4 punch combo on him and get out, only thing Rios can do is cover up he doesnt have the speed skill timing ring IQ or footwork to fight Pac, Pac will get in land combination and get out before Rios even tries to do anything, until referee stops it.
