Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios on Nov 24 in Macau China

[Tam Seddon]

Who's Alvarado going to fight?

When are Provodnikov and Bradley due back?

Bradley is fighting Marquez

I think it's a solid match. I don't give Rios much of a chance though.

I think we're going to see a more conservative Manny, and if he wants to I think he can pot-shot Rios all night.

You can't take the fighter out of someone like Manny...once the bell rings against a volatile guy like Rios...I highly doubt Pac is all of a sudden going to fight a conservative gameplan. Even though Manny should on paper beat Rios with relative ease...Pac has been on the slide for some time and he is coming of a vicious KO. It will be interesting.

[El Kabong]

This is a ballsy move, but I suppose Rios is a 1 gear fighter so Manny won't have to watch out for tricky counter punches. I would be shocked if Manny wins via stoppage

[roberto duran legend]

Pac V Margarito all over again

You forgot the D.

Strange choice I would have thought Bradley would have been his warm up before JMM but it certainly will suit Manny to fight someone that is aggressive so that he can utilise his speed.

[Fenster]

Considering Pac is coming off being completely ironed out it's a great match-up. However long it lasts it will be exciting. Respect to both guys, either Pac is gonna get the nail in the coffin or Rios is gonna take the hiding off a lifetime.

[Beanz]

Rios always gets a hiding even when he wins. The guy moves less than a heavy bag, gets punched just as often and probably shares about 95% of it's D.N.A. Just hope Manny hasn't shot his bolt, it would be a great shame for the door on his career to be shut by such a douche. Even a faded Pacman makes a mess of Rios. Stopped on cuts, middle rounds, or KO .

[Master]

If Manny had to hand pick an opponent, this style of fighter would be it to make him look good.

Rios is tough as nails and I worry about him having too many wars at such a young age. If he continues like this he will be finished in a few years. Prime Manny ruined Margarito in a brutal fight.

[Rantcatrat]

Ballsy choice. It doesn't seem like the best idea to take on a puncher when you were just knocked out.

well atleast when many gets punched in the face we will find out if he is back or not

[DavilaJones]

I wish them both luck, this could be a bloody fight. I do want to see Pacquiao fight Bradley to avenge the "loss." Hey who knows maybe Bradley could legitimately beat him this time.

[IamInuit]

The winner of this meets the winner of Marquez/Bradley. Marquez is going to school Bradley and I think Rios will beat Manny. I'm sure Arum will have Bradley/Manny 2 anyway.

[walrus]

Hmm, you think Rios can beat Manny. They way they both fight it could be a slug fest. Rios excels in those toe to toe bouts. He doesn't seem to taking 200 head shots a fight.
