A punching bag with a great chin. Who exactly has a history of stopping Brandon Rios? Pac has fought guys with excellent chins and those guys don't go down. Some fighters know where to keep their hands or else know how to take it. If the chin isn't so great then you are getting knocked down because of the speed and if you aren't ready then he might flatten you like we saw with Hatton. Opponents are studying Manny and all they are learning is how to survive.


The fight should at least be going to a decision. While Rios has a great chin, I think Mayweather's chin plus defensive skills should at least ensure against getting KO'd if Rios can manage it.
