Pac just got ktfo in his last outing and honestly has not looked too spectacular since the margarito fight. Obviously this isn't the most dangerous option out there, but hell he is facing a good puncher with an iron chin. This fight can really go one of two ways. Either pac looks great and essentially margaritos rios, or he is indeed done as an elite fighter and gets sparked again.
That wasn't too bad of a fight, there really wasn't much out there not to mention he looked as though he lost a step against cotto. So he himself, like pac (though not as extreem) needed to test the waters. I will say his next opponent can't be one of Robert's skill level since he has proved that he has plenty to give these days.
Nevertheless, a guy coming from a KO loss has a right to test his groove and not go all out that soon. A lot of guys have been ruined that way.
:rofl and you are on the other thread talkin **** about Burns and saying he was exposed, if Burns is no good then Rios is **** and people rate Abril because he schooled Rios as if that is difficult :nut awful opponent for Pac, will be a massacre in Pac's favour
