    Easy work for Pac! a guy with no defence who wont even run but just stand in front of Pac is going to get KTFO 100 times out of 100! Pac will KO this fool no doubt about that at all!

    I know Pacquioa is the heavy favorite but I didn't expect the poll to be this one-sided..

    Rios is made to order for Pac.

    That being said, Pac is on the slide so it will be a better fight then it should be. But if he cant beat Rios at this stage then hes even farther gone then previously thought.

    Should be a good, blood filled fight, but reality will set in on Rios and whatever fans think he will win when Pac is beating him up badly in rounds 8, 9, and 10, until the ref or corner save Brandon from Pac and himself.

    Rios is a good comeback fight for Pac. The perfect opponent actually.

    Rios is incredibly tough with an iron level chin

    I think this fight will be similar to the outcome of margarito vs pacquiao

    Pac is the favorite and I believe he will win because of the styles here. But there are way too many questions to answer about him for the numbers to be totally lopsided. Hopefully he takes care of business, but I have seen a lot of fighters not bounce back well after a K.O. like he suffered.

    Pacquiao vs Margarito 2.
    I was watching Rios vs Alvarado 1 & 2, Rios got no defense but his face. Rios said he will change his style and not fight the same way and be smart but you cant change the way you fight in a short period of time.

    True.
    Bam Bam is like Maidana in a way to me. He brings excitement but the fundamental aspect is left often in the locker room:smoke

    Do you guys think that Alex Ariza working with Brandon Rios full-time now will have any impact? I think Rios will come in much more in shape and ready as I do think Ariza does a good job with S&C. How about the fact that Ariza knows Manny's ring tricks and faults after being around him for so many years?

    Might give a small edge but you can have the combination to the vault but you still can't just walk in and take it without resistance bro:smoke

    BAM BAM in for a tough fight.....believe that!!!:hey

    ariza is overrated.

    pac hasn't knocked anybody out since ariza became his sole conditioner.

    The one I'm worried about is Rios. Dude is already slurring his words. If Manny shows up 80% of what he was fighting JMM, it's gonna be a brutal and protracted beating Brandon's gonna take cause he's such a tough sumbitch.

    Rios is a horrible opponent. 1-1 in his only fights above Lightweight. Never before fought at Welterweight... **** opponent. Pacquiao's worst since probably 2007 (with the exception of Margarito).

    Pacquiao could beat him 117-111 if he tore one achilles, cracked a rib on each side, and dislocated his shoulder moments before walking into the ring.

    Two different levels. Pacquiao easy, wide UD.
