    It would look like Rios Pacquiao, Manny wouldn't be trouble by Maidana in the least.

    I know styles make fights...but, you do realise Maidana's own trainer says Pacquiao beats Mayweather. The same Mayweather that Maidana couldn't beat twice and got easily beaten in the 2nd fight?

    Since when did Robert Garcia change his tune on this? He's on record repeatedly picking Mayweather over Pacquiao.

    If pac beats maidana, I'm sure Floyd would brag and say "Oh pacquiao is beating guys that are my left-overs that i beat him twice already. There's no need to fight him."

    All Pac would have to do is use his movement to offset Maidana's rhythm ..

    The difference in all facets of boxing skills between Maidana and Rios is WIDE. Very wide. And in favor of Maidana (except for chins). While it may look like Pac/Rios, I doubt it be quite that one sided. Maidana won't simply walk into shots with Pac backpedaling as a few of his recent opponents have done.

    I know, but its the closest example. Maidana has more versatility in his attacks, Rios very very predictable.

    I know there is a Seckback video where Robert Garcia says that "Mayweather is the greatest fighter ever. Ever."

    So citing Garcia in this argument wouldn't be very smart for the guy who you quoted either way.

    Garcia is the one changing his agenda. He had previously said Floyd is the GOAT. So, you should "keep up kid"-O!

    What?

    Garcia has had experience with both Mayweather & Pacquiao in the last year (Rio's & Maidana).

    Much has changed in Mayweather's fighting & so has Pacquiao's.

    Because he believed he would beat him at another time doesn't discredit what he believes now?

    As an example, I believed Pacquiao beats Mayweather in 09, Mayweather would beat Pacquiao in 2011/12 and I believe the fight is very close now.

    That doesn't mean anything. Jesus christ man, let up with the nut huggery.

    Just because a trainer (or fan for that matter) changes their tune on how they think a fight plays out, or how much a fighter has gained/faded over time does not mean they have a "personal agenda". You are the bloody cancer to this sport kid. Grow up. Your posts are pathetic, your opinion on anyone elses viewpoint that is different than yours is pathetic and you are nothing but a worthless agenda driven troll to any thread you enter. You are worse than MVC! ffs.

    Again, grow up, go do something more creative with your life.

    yeah but Rios's footwork isn't just ****, it's nonexistent. Maidana can cut the ring off better than Rios and throw punches from long range and while on the move.
    He'd still lose to Pacquiao, but he'd do better than Rios

    That's also because. Rios is a head first brawler ...At least Maidana can work of the jab
