Pacquiao vs Rios, Marquez vs Bradley........thoughts?

What are your thoughts on these two fights?

Good fights? What will the outcome of each fight be?

Also, what do these fights lead to for the winners?

if that KO from jmm awakened pac from his deep slumber, maybe rios will get the worst beating of his life.... if not, and pac continue to decline, maybe pac will get another KO... seems to me there are forces out there that really doesnt want pac's brown @ss getting back from the top... i got a feeling if pacs fails to KO rios, he will lose.

marquez/bradley.... i hope this two will subject themselves to random blood test just like pac and rios... if that happens, i dont see jmm winning against the younger bradley, man jmm's age made me question that fu
Pacquiao should beat rios because he knows his style can beat him easily. rios is a flat footed fighter one dimensional who came a recent loss and he has gotten a gift decision in the past. Typical pacquiao move. Pacquiao Tko 10th round.

Marquez vs Bradley is a difficult one because Marquez should know he doesn't have that style that ruslan uses and freddie roach almost wanted to stop the fight because ruslan was taking too much punishment in the mid rounds. Anyways Very difficult to score but I lean more towards bradley because hes a mover and boxer not like pacquiao or ruslan. Marquez is pretty old now while bradley is still young. AND I don't think ruslan was robbed I had bradley winning. I see it going to a decision. So yeah thats my thought.

If Manny Pacquiao is the same fighter that he was before he got KOed by Marquez he should beat Rios and perhaps beat him pretty bad if Pacquiao goes for the KO.

Manny Pacquiao can beat any fighter out there that is one dimensional and stands right in front of him like Brandon Rios will probably do.

both fights should be good. in my opinion pacquiao should beat rios i do not think pacquiao will knock rios out cold i think the referee will stop the fight because rios will be getting hit so much but then again you never know how pacquiao is going to look after his devastating knockout against marquez the type of knockout pacquiao suffered against marquez is the type of knockout fighters don't usually come back from so we will see how he looks. marquez bradley fight should be a chess match with both fighters looking to counter punch bradley is no doubt quicker on his feet that marquez but marquez has the ability to knock bradley out but more importantly has the ability to box bradley i really can not tell you who wins between marquez and bradley i can see both guys winning but if i had to say who is going to win i would say bradley by decision because he is much quicker than marquez and will have the speed in his hands and feet to hit marquez and then step out of range but it will be a close fight

Pacquio vs Rios:

Very simple fight, should be exciting because Rios doesn't have any brains at all but he has a good chin. He will stay in the way of every Pacquiao punch, fans will love the violence. It will be a terribly exhibition of boxing skill, but at least it won't fail to put fans on their feet.

Outcome- Pacquiao by KO in the 12. Rios has a great chin but he was actually getting hurt with Alvarado. Imagine Pacquiao :P

If Pacquiao does not massacre Rios, then I will support 100% that he retire. This is just way to easy for Pacquiao

Marquez-Bradley:

Oh yeah, it's on now! This fight is definitely what fans(at least I want), Bradley failed to impress with Pacquiao but his battle with Provodnikov made me realize that Bradley is definitely on an elite level. You don't just win(I strongly believe Bradley won) a decision after getting with bombs just like that. Bradley is definitely a high quality fighter. He just needed a wake up call. No need to speak about Marquez right?

I honestly have no idea who will win this fight or how it might go. The only obvious thing is Marquez being the heavier hitter. Bradley will have to use his "weird" tactics to his full potential if he wishes to beat Marquez. Marquez has to be careful Bradley does enough to secure a decision.

Both fighters have will, heart, hunger, skills(Marquez has a lot more though), etc... This may be one of the best fights this year.

I think Marquez will win by decision. Bradley will not be as easy to figure out like Pacquiao, for starters, I don't think Bradley will lunge in with his hands down. Marquez might KO Bradley if he can figure out his pattern but like I said, Bradley will definitely work on not being repetitive. He can't afford Marquez to figure him out or it's over.

Outcome for the winners: Well, this could Bob Arum's version of an unofficial tournament(like Dela Hoya is doing with the 140 division). Maybe the winners will fight?

Individually:

If Pacquiao wins- Nothing much will happen, a victory over a weaker version of Margarito, Pacquiao will get a confidence boost, nothing more. Maybe he will Bradley or Marquez or another tune-up fight but against a smarter foe(Alvarado, weaker chin but way bigger brains).

If Rios wins- A victory over Manny Pacquiao? Yup, Rios hit big time, every high level fight is available now. He should fight Provodnikov though, just for the fun, with the level he will achieve after a Pacquiao win, he will probably make lotsa $$$

If Bradley wins- The (second) best 147 guy, duh. Beat Marquez and Pacquiao, what better accomplishment than beating the two men who go through wars in each fight? Bradley beats Marquez and he should immediately quit Top Rank and go with Golden Boy. CHASE MAYWEATHER. His fame level will be so high after those accomplishments that a Mayweather fight will bring $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

If Marquez wins- Retire? Not much left for Marquez other than securing a nice paycheck. Provodnikov, Alvarado, Rios or a Pacquiao rematch are the only interesting things to be done with Top Rank He could also quit Top Rank, sign with Golden Boy, then go down to 140(if possible), fights with Danny Garcia, Lucas Mathysse, Zab Judah, Amir Khan, etc... Big fights for Marquez with big $$$$. Even at 147 with GBP, he should do better than with Top Rank.

pacquiao beats rios easily enough...marquez beats bradley pts/rf stop fairly comfortably...
