    Margarito was a long time ago in Ring Years.

    I have said it before and I will say it again...Pacman is going to get knocked out and finished by Rios.

    Its not because of skill... its because of heart, fire in the belly and determination...the world will be shocked by how much Pacman has declined come 24th November.

    It was all fun before when he was 29 and 30 and running around in a whirlwind doing a million things..that life takes its toll and the guy is 34 now and coming off a massive knock out (from a 40 year old no less, as great as JMM is).

    The desire is gone...this represents about 30% of what is happeneing in Mannys life compared to the single biggest event of Rios entire life pre or post fight...he is hungry and this is his only moment and he knows it....his hunger will me massive whareas Manny is there to pick up some cash to fuel his political ambitions.

    I love Pacquaio and dislike Bam Bam but I am just saying it how it is.

    I dropped close to $3,000 on thr tickets and trip to Macau to be at the fight and I will be betting big on Bam Bam

    retire. rios is tailor made for pacquiao in his prime. if pacquiao doesnt have the fire anymore and can't be at his best physically (margarito, de la hoya, hatton) anymore, then he should retire.

    PAC has become a Gatekeeper. Rios will knock him out. Glass chin.

    People who say such foolish things about Rios, know nothing about boxing.

    It depends how Pacman loses. If he's dominating Rios then get's ko'd means Pacman still had plenty in the tank and simply got caught. I hope Manny doesn't think Brandon is a smaller version of Margarito cuz Rios is more skillful, craftier with some tricks up his sleeve. Pacman looked lethal and faster than ever before getting ko'd. BUT if he gets dominated and/or gets hurt by shots that usually wouldn't faze him or simply isn't the Pacman we're used to seeing, he may be done. You need more than speed and power to beat Rios. Without defense, a good one, you won't beat Rios. Period.

    PAC has no defense either. Can't fight backin up. His hands down by his waist when JMM knocked him out. And he is not strong enough to push Rios around. Should be very interesting.

    Take a farewell fight and then retire. If he cant beat Rios, then its time to hang em up. Hes taken a lot of punishment in his life.... Id rather just see him retire while hes still with it.
