Nothing less than a fighter. He could have, should have fought this spring IMO against lesser competition...a light puncher maybe to restore his confidence. A tune up. While not too many are giving Rios a chance, he's a fighter and a relentless attacker who will be there all night in Pac's grill. Some people see it as an easy victory, but unless he sparks him like he did Hatton, he will get some wear and tear. That's what I like about Manny...even though some people don't like what became of his and Floyd's match up that did not occur for whatever reason, he has remained a true fighter. If you don't like Manny something is wrong with you.
I dont like manny for who he is. The nice guy act. When he cheats on his wife an ****. It goes against my morals but what really shits me is manny being a wolf in sheeps clothing But i hate manny as a fighter because of how much hype he has recieved for being so god damn carefully matched! Now u can blame his promoter and team but at the end of the day manny has the say on who he fights and he sat back and decided to follow his promoters wishes.. For me pacquiao goes down as one of the biggest dissopointments. I honestly feel he could have breezed through the same opponents if they were prime and not weight drained (with the exception of maybe one or two) but he dident... I deal with facts and they tell me a sad story when it comes to pac That being said the rios fight is a gutsy move and anyone who shits on it is a blind hater, pac has trouble onthe inside and his power might not shock rios becuase he has a great chin...and then you consider pac is also coming off a brutal KO loss... This fight is very competitive for me
Here we see an alt of a most likely banned poster who clearly hasent learnt He is also padding his profile with as many posts as possible to seem more legit Personally i think he is trying just a tad to hard
Rios is tailor made for Manny. If Manny loses that fight, its all over for him.. then he really should retire. I'm not even sure I like to see him fight on, considering he's a legend in the sport and we know what father time does to legends.
He's tailor made, but he can still inflict damage. Manny is coming off of a devastatting ko...it's a gutsy move. And I'm not talking bout personal affairs.
Manny's fans ruined Manny. When you have the most awful, ignorant and obnoxious fanbase in the history of the sport it will make people dislike you. Hopefully he gets KO'd by Rios and retires.
:deal - Rios can inflict a lot of damage potentially to a guy whose chin is in question. It's a gutsy match-up but against a style that a confident Pacquiao will relish...we'll have to see whether this Pacquiao relishes it
i ve been bashing manny a lot lately, but we all know he's a very special fighter. i love manny. i m a big fan of his.
I don't see Rios as a tough test, Manny is far too fast both hand speed and foot speed, rios won't be able to hit Manny. Furthermore Manny will pepper him with shots on the way in, this is an easier Margarito fight, IMO.
Rios is tailor made for Manny. Yes he's a tough ******* but so was Margarito. He was also tailor made as well and look what happened to him. Technically Manny should blitz through Rios if he's still the Pacquiao of old. But I'm rooting for Rios to give Manny another face-planting. I can't get over that drug testing bull**** he pulled which robbed us of the greatest fight this decade.
