    He really hasn't done anything to maximize the time he already had though

    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.

    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.

    Cant believe they gave Rios a few rds when tallied. Rios looked like both his feet were nailed to the floor. Like watching oil pour at -30

    I had a clean sweep. Contgrats to Pac he clearly exposed Rios for what he is ... a tough mid level caliber knuckle head fighter with little skills / movement and a trainer that took a vacation in Macau. Impressive show but it "DOES NOT WARRANT" a Mayweather fight. It warrants a Prod, Bradley or Garcia match. Only a win over Garcia will earn Pac a match with Money despite a desperate HBO clamoring for the fight. Besides if it ever does take place it will be on Showtime.

    Sad but true, it's likely we never see Manny vs Floyd. Boxing is a business, so there is always a chance the fight could happen, but don't hold your breath.
    Manny has to keep winning--hopefully not a problem for a refocused Manny--and there is always Arum to deal with, so the chances are slim and none, in my opinion.

    DOES NOT WARRANT" a Mayweather fight. Do you not know what warrants means ........ appears you have no brains. I am bascally saying time has passed I agree. But we do not make the matches ir get a slice of the $$$$$

    a 12 rounds one direction total mauling, Rios barely landed more than one interesting/meaningful punch per round.

    Kellerman should have just been honest with him. "Do you think I was a punching bag?" I think if you were a rock em sock em robot your head would have popped up by now.

    Great fight. But the difference in class shows up AFTER the fight. Manny goes around and congratulates the entire Rios camp on a good show. Then he does a classy interview. Rios and his puffed up face claims he never felt Pac's power, and decides to pick a fight with Max instead.

    Par for the course.

    you guys are a bunch of dicks!
    lets see one of you take flush shots to the face for twelve rounds and feel jolly and good at the end.
    max's question was condescending and rios called him out on it. max showed no respect and didn't have the balls to back his own words up.

    i picked pac to win by ko so i'm impressed that rios went the distance taking all that punishment.

    We don't get paid what Rios got paid. Getting interviewed is part of the job description.

    Did anybody else notice that, while Pac has some pop in his punches, he never sets down and really turns on anything?
