    Rios was made to order for Pacman. To be honest, we won't know for sure after the Bradley fight. Bradley is an elite fighter. Rios was, but at 135. Bradley, tho, Imo was the best of the 140lb batch of the last 5 yrs (Bradley, Khan, Garcia, Matthysse, Maidana, Prov). So it could be that Pacman stylistically is already facing the toughest opponent out there for him not named Marquez or Mayweather. Against anybody else, as good as they are, wouldn't be considered favorites against him, I think.

    I think Floyd would beat the crap out of him if we're being honest. He's essentially pacman's kryptonite- he's bigger than Manny, longer reach, best defense he'd ever see and the most accurate counterpuncher in the history of boxing.

    I never favored manny against Floyd, even back in 09-10, Floyd is just too good on a technical level.

    I'd imagine Manny would be favored against almost anyone between 140-147 but some interesting fights in those weight divisions would be against Thurman at 147 and possibly Lucas at 140.

    Manny never fought a true 154 lber, but if he did decide to venture up to that weight division, I could see Canelo and Lara both having their way with him, especially Lara if he's on top of his game.
