    You have the word bum in your title, you're just another sad troll abusing people anonymously on the internet. Grow up kid.

    this is a perfectly acceptable comeback fight from that ko. hes getting in the ring with a big puncher/brawler. dont give me the hes a 140 fighter, we all know rios can hardly make 140 hes really a welter. i believe we will see a good version of pac being hes got a little motivation due to the footage of rios busting on roach for his disease. i give it a B+ for a comeback fight

    They both coming off losses . Manny was knocked out cold in his last fight . He suffered a worse loss than Rios did . I dont see whats the problem with this fight . Sure Mayweathers fans calling Rios a bum now , But come fight night they going to cheering , rooting and praying for him to give Manny another knockout loss .

    Rios isn't a bum...... Seriously, people need to have a little more overall respect in general for these guys. (professional boxers)

    You sure about that? I think many would agree that's a good fight and Robert is more than capable of beating Brandon. And I have no problem with the Rios fight, just FYI.

    Let's not let your dick riding get in the way of reality, ok?

    Ive never been a ******* but this anti Manny stuff is getting a little rediculous

    Manny is 0 for his last 2, cut the guy a break, also who in the Top Rank stable is a much better fight at 147 or 140, GBP has all the big guns

    Rios is a little better than you give credit for and this should turn out to be fun while it lasts

    I think its fair he selected someone coming off only 1 loss

    wankstain how is it 3? if you're including the marquez 3 fight as a loss then with that logic the bradley fight is a pac victory :patsch:patsch:patsch

    Let's not forget that Pacquiao is coming back from a brutal KO. Most fighters shy away from anyone with anything resembling power in their first fight back.

    Of course it's a mismatch on paper but he could have done a whole lot worse than Rios.

    Who the hell is Pacquiao supposed to fight? GBP has all the 140 guys and a lot of good 147 dudes as well. Pacquiao can't do a Mayweather fight because May is scared, he can't fight Bradley because his losses doesn't warrant an automatic title shot, he can't fight Alvarado because he's hurt for the rest of the year, and he can't fight Marquez because Marquez has refused.

    Pacquiao was always going to fight the loser of Rios vs Alvarado 2.

    Because Pacquiao is coming off a loss himself. Who knows what Pacquiao has left.
