It's always entertaining seeing know-it-all kellerman proven wrong time-and-time again with fight predictions and whatnot.
His kind of knowledge comes from basically remembering facts from Boxing stat-books and regurgitating them.

This is the kind of fight where I miss 15 rounders.
Pressure-fighters run out of time in 12 rounders.
"Don't make mistakes but I want you to be more aggresive" going the 12th round where your hopelessly behind...great instruct Garcia.
Go hard or go home!
I think Rios expected Pacquiao to just stand in front of him and throw punches for however long the fight lasted. He wasn't expecting to have to actually box tonight and ate shots because of it. He spent most of the fight trying to find Pacquiao, walking around and getting hit. He didn't even try to cut off the ring, I really didn't understand his game plan.
a 12 rounds one direction total mauling, Rios barely landed more than one interesting/meaningful punch per round.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
The shopworn near-35 year old fighter with 19 years as a pro completely outclassed the prime 27 year old elite fighter. The younger guy showed Heart, but he was humbled; hopefully he'll learn some respect regarding all his loud trashtalking about his opponent for the past 3 years or so. Rios is still a winner though: biggest payday of his career, and his name gets out there.
Rios has never had a game plan, he's just a really tough guy. I'm only surprised that he took so many flush shots tonight.
Rios picks a fight with Kellerman cause he couldn't pick one with Manny. Dude, Come on.
prisint!
was really nervous watching him. back then i dont care if he gets hit i just wanted a brawl. but since the marquez great KO its different for me.
i kinda like the new pacquiao, well he is still the same but is now very cautious. the long break did him good and was able to be active all thru out.
i know rios is tailor made for pac and i knew he will lose to pac. i was still glued watching cause i want to see if pac became permanently damage but that jmm KO.

I guess people here talking on the demise of Manny may not have been accurate. Granted Rios isn't top tier but I didn't expect Manny to look as good as he did, I expected him to win I just didn't expect that domination.
Very pedestrian fight actually. Entertaining, but far from a classic.
Quite workmanlike for a Pacquiao fight actually.
Pacquiao is clearly not as fast as he once was, Rios is really slow.
Tough guy.
Excellent cardio on both of them. Machines.
