    Manny Pacquiao would be fighting a lightweight coming off a loss. Just needs a catchweight and a vacant paper title to make it the real deal.

    Pacquiao is going down now but I think that he can handle Rios.

    Pac can't afford to lose this fight. If he loses, he's done!

    Pacquiao UD, 118-110's and 117-111's

    This is a horrible fight. Rios just came up from LW not long ago after getting his ass kicked, and has fought only twice at JWW, getting his ass kicked in his most recent outing. Nothing about him will get more effective with the increases in weight up to WW.

    Rios by KO. Rios stronger, the harder puncher , and has a better chin. PAC has no chin. Rios will bring the DOG out in Manny.

    Should be a fun and exciting fight. Rios is exactly the type of fighter Manny needs.

    Unless Pacquiao's chin is in decline he should stop Brandon inside of 9.

    This win could look good years from now if Rios does great things at WW.

    But as of now, he is coming off a decisive loss in one of only two fights he's had at JWW.

    Lets be real here. The only chance Rios has is if Pacquiao either:
    a) was one of the most overrated WW fighters ever
    or
    b) has taken the biggest fall after a KO loss in boxing history

    This is Manny's worst opponent since Jorge Solis or Oscar Larios in 2006, ignoring Margarito because that clearly is the worst of the stretch.

    Exciting doesn't equal good. This is a very bad fight for a "ATG and still P4P ranked" fighter.

    Give it 2-3 rds, Manny goes down.

    Rios' level is still up there, Manny's level has gone spiral downwards already (just paper elite left).

    For those who mock Rios' skills based on his prev opponents, here's what I can say - MANNY AIN'T BOXING SH*T

    This fight will bring up an end to Manny's storied career.
