    You're right, barely anyone will even be there. The tickets will probably be priced really low, it's in Macau. They don't give two shits about boxing. All they care about is gambling.

    They'll go watch the Shiming fight to cheer for the nation hero and give no shits about Pac. :deal

    Poll results show just how much of a mismatch this fight is. Can't wait to hear the official odds.

    can't see Pac losing this unless he's finished. This is a tune-up for a reason, albeit against a tough opponent. Should be entertaining while it lasts.

    This fight will either be the bounce-back fight for Pacquiao, or the passing of the torch for Rios..

    I hope the winner gets Mayweather.. :smoke

    its an exciting fight and worth the money if you like exciting fights. like someone already mentioned, there wont be anyone walking out mid fight even if its a blowout because manny is going to try and give you what you paid for no matter how the fight is going.

    I think Pacuiao is going to land at will. Pac does good against pressure fighters. Pac by mid-late stoppage.

    I don't know how boxing fans (including me) see a stoppage when Rios has not been stopped before.. :think

    I think they'll both land some bombs. This will end in a T/KO. I favor Pacman though. He's a heck of a lot faster than Rios, but Rios could POSSIBLY pull an upset. Low chance of it happening, but he could do it.

    rio's face is going to look a mess after this fight and he won't fight for at least a year afterwards.

    Who in your mind could he have fought that wouldn't have been a cherry pick?
