I got to see it live for Rd by Rd thread so YES Plus all my Mexican MOFO friends will chip in just like my white & Iran MOFO friends:rofl :nut :smoke
This quote from Freddy Roach pretty much sums it up; "Coming off two losses, he knows he has to be impressive, and being impressive is not winning by close decision, being impressive is winning by knockout. I don't feel Rios can go the distance with a guy with the talents of Manny Pacquiao. It's a world-class fighter going in against a guy who is a journeyman at best," You have a glorified journeyman against a world class fighter. This really isn't a ppv caliber fight. Pacquiao trying to overcome that devastating KO is what they're banking on to sell this fight.
I ordered it a long time ago and so did many of my friends. After the Roach-Ariza incident, some of my other friends ordered it too.
Of course......I'm a boxing fan and this is a boxing fans fight. It's going to be one sided but exciting and action packed. I even bought Floyd vs Guerrero and the outcome was as predictable as this one. But I know that this main event will be more exciting based on the track record of both combatants.
I was supposed to go to my brother-in-law to watch but I'm ordering it to support Pac cause I'm a *******. I'll cry if Rios KO's him
No different than Floyds fight with Guerrero or Ortiz.....but Pac was starched in his last fight. He's supposed to get at least one confidence builder before jumping back into the elite level opposition.
beer... steak and oysters.. my fight night ritual ... i suppose i could have spent that money on the PPV but its enjoyable watching it in the pub with screaming fans drowning out the bias commentary (i only wish they would shut the **** up for the post fight interview)
I love boxing, but I am not paying $50+ or whatever it is for ONE fight. I say one fight because the under card stinks. Don King, as crooked as he was, put on great under card fights.
