ESPN's Debate Desk Featuring PAC and RIOS

[FinitoElDinamita]

This fight should be a walk in the park on paper but we have to take Pacquiao's current state of mind into account. History has shown that fighters who suffer devastating knockouts, the ones where they fall face first in particular and put to sleep for minutes , do not ever fully regain form.

Take Paul Williams and Hatton for instance. They were knocked out in the same fashion and both left a part of themselves inside that ring.

Pacman is no superman and he too can be effected the same. There is a high chance that he might not be the same fighter physically and psychologically..

With that said, Brandon Rios is more than respectable as his comeback opponent. Pacquiao showing us what a true warrior he is..

He could have easily chosen an easier route like Josesito Lopez or a Mauricio Herrera type and nobody would have blamed him but he would rather fight a battle tested young gun in Rios..

This is a bold move..

I’m not going to scrutinize a guy to death with about a grade 2 command of the English language who possibly chose the wrong adjective to describe an upcoming opponent on a live show to promote their fight. And I don't think it will be a walk in the least.
