    I think it is.

    The KTFO6 loss against JMM was as devastating as a loss could ever be. For a moment many people thought Pac was dead. Defeats don't get any more crushing that that.

    That was the kind of defeat that could truly ruin a fighter, both physically and mentally, so a lot of question marks were around Pac's comeback, many people thought he wouldn't be the same again, that post-KTFO6 Pac would be a much lesser version of himself, if not totally finished

    but Pac proved once again how great he is, by winning every minute of every round against a young strong, tough as nails and borderline undefeated Brandon Rios (who was roided up to the eyeballs on top of that).

    If Rios' head wasn't made of concrete, The Man that Floyd Fears would have gotten a KO win no doubt. In short, when it comes to comeback victories after a brutal loss it doesn't get any better than this. Pacman proved he still has plenty in the tank left, no wonder the ducking diva wants none of that

    Pac-Rios is the greatest comeback W after a brutal L do you agree y/n?

    After Broner's loss to Ponce De Leon, he found the right opponent in glass jawed midget Jason Litzau and stopped him in the 1st round.

    That's at least an honorable mention.

    Broner's loss to PDL wasn't really devastating

    I mean, Broner's fanboys and the judges of that match still think he somehow won

    I don't think they really think that.

    They are just trolling. Including the judges.

    he was the fav by a decent margain so that right there should ring alarm bells to it being ATG.

    simply no. Rios was handpicked,lost his last fight and was moving up in weight.also Rios can't box and is slow as a turtle and has been exposed multiple times in lighter weighclasses against mediocre opposition.what is great about pac victory?

    I don't think he actually meant for anyone to answer his question. I think he just wanted us to know how much of a Pacquiao fan he is.

    I'm sure there's a bunch better than Pacquiao's comeback victory against a C level Rios.

    Here's one just off the top of my head..........
    Hearns KO 1 right after being stopped in ferocious fashion by
    "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler.

    Lewis, Tyson, Hearns, Duran and many more had far better come-backs after their devastating losses.
