Manny will land a big fight between either Rios or Bradley. Each guy will bring interest but each guy will be coming off a major ass beating. Rios is already starting to slur his words and is looking war torn. I know his fight will leave him bloodied and bruised. Bradley just came off a War World III type of fight and I doubt he will ever fully recover from the war he just had. Manny needs to look like Superman and The Hulk in his next fight to regain some momentum with his fans and himself. Both men will be soft targets for him. If Bradley fights Pac the way he fought Ruslan, they fight would be called off in the 6th round (which will be great for Manny). If he fights Rios then we will have an action packed fight for at least 9 to 10 rounds. Rios does not back down and he does not believe in head moment. I think this fight happens in September. Either way, Manny will most likely come out the victor. If Bradley fights he may be a little different but I think he will want to prove that the first fight wasn't a gift but a well earned decision.

You been hacked or something?

sounds about right, problem is I wonder how Bradley will look? Like they said something of Bradley was left in that ring and Ruslan took it as his trophy. If Pac decimates him people will say Ruslan softened him up. I'd rather he fights Rios when Rios seems fresh over a KO of Alvarado and then Bradley so Bradley has more time to recover, or look good in a defense.

I think I'm more concerned on how PAC will look after being KTFO cold. Though he was once considered to the now muted PAC-FANS as this unstoppable phenomenon, let us not forget that he's been in more wars than the both of them.

Is Alverado out for Manny should he beat Rios in the rematch?

Odds are he fights Bradley after the type of fight he had. If I'm Bradley I say something to the extent of "fuck that, I'm a world champion, undefeated, you have just lost two fights in a row one of which was to me. You need to get to the back of the line and get some wins".

I'm no promoter, but if we look at the big picture concerning Alvarado-Rios(winner), Bradley, Marquez and Pacquiao. I would assume since the Rios-Alvarado rematch is carrying more buzz than Bradley's last fight I wouldn't see why not. Even though Marquez KO'd Pac, Manny still has the broader fan base and if Arum can't get these two back in the ring anytime soon, I would assume Arum would put fighter against fighter(Pacquiao vs Rios-Alvarado winner) and both action styled boxers against each other Marquez vs. Bradley "the 2 who beat Manny Pacquiao". Makes sense?

Idk if its just me but I was way more excited to see Bradley rather than the rematch.

Oh most def. it was a unexpected war that can be the 1st candidate for FOTY, but it's like what I typed, it was unexpected. The first Rios-Alverado fight had more people in the stands than Bradley-Porognakov, and we seen how that fight lived up to the hype. Now is the rematch with hype based off a war we already seen and should expect more. Something Bradley-Porognakov didn't have until the actual fight, but lets see what happens in the rematch, If you ask me who I think wins it, I'm gonna stick with Rios.

Actually I meant I was looking forward to it before it became.a war lol. I've been watching Bradley for ages and I've seen ruslan in like 4 or 5 fights. But I guess I get excited for weird match ups, I thought people were hyping up rios alvarado.
