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

[Beanflicker]

I don't blame Rios for getting angry with Kelllerman, because the subtext of the question he asked was "tell us in your own words why you weren't just a punching bag out there, because it sure looked like it to anyone who was watching the fight". Rios was little more than a heavybag out there, but it is disrespectful to bring it up to a guy right after a fight.

Fight went just like I figured it would (minus a stoppage for Pacquaio). Rios could have had Angelo Dundee, Ray Arcel and Eddie Futch training him, it wouldn't have made a difference. He isn't equipt to deal with a Pacquaio. He was a carefully selected opponent for a gaurenteed impressive Pacquaio performance. A highly ranked guy who was tailor made for Pac. No big surprise.
