HBO/BOXNATION- PACQUIAO v RIOS -The Clash in Cotai-SATURDAY NIGHT CHAT THREAD

[greynotsoold]

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

I did. He never made a move to "close to show" with Rios, content to just land a few shots and move. And when I think about other Pacquiao fights, he has always been a more methodical finisher, letting fighters wither from the accumulation of punches whether than just throwing the kitchen sink at them after landing a good shot.
