Pacquiao vs Rios on November 23, 2013 Confirmed. Pacquiao vs Rios fight is now confirmed to be on November 23, 2013 at Venetian, Macau, China and will be aired via HBO Pay per View.
After almost a year after a defeat from Juan Manuel Marquez, Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao now suffered from a great challenge in his boxing career. Prior to the defeat he had against Marquez, he was also defeated from their fight against Timothy Bradley last June 9 last year. Even though everybody believes that it was an error or a mistake from the judges.
So what is the big challenge that Manny Pacquiao currently facing? It is how to cover up the losses he had the previous year. He has to build up again the reputation he lost from those fights, though his boxing fans are with him still, but he has to prove to them that he deserve to be called as pound for pound king title.
As we all know, everybody wants to see the so called “mega fight” between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Manny Pacquiao, but this is very far to happen. It is because from the latest fight of Mayweather which was against Guerrero last May 4, 2013, it just proves that nobody can beat him. On the other hand, Manny Pacquiao was defeated by Marquez and Bradley who Mayweather both defeated. So it’s ironic if Mayweather vs Pacquiao will happen today. That is the reason why Manny Pacquiao has to be building his reputation again and fight for bigger names in the future and target would be Mayweather.
Manny Pacquiao who is 8 division world champion with a current record of 54 – 5 – 2, in which 38 are via knockouts decided to fight Brandon Rios who currently holds a record of 31 – 1 – 1, 23 of which are via knockouts.
However, this fight is against to all we are expecting that the fight will be in USA, because the fight will be at China. The so called mini Las Vegas, Venetian in Macau, is the place that was chosen for Pacquiao vs Rios fight.
But because of the twelve hour difference, the actual fight will be on November 24, 2013, Sunday, China time and it will be the same time as the usual HBO pay per view will be aired so that would be 9PM EST / 6PM PST on Saturday night in United States.
There are two running opponents to fight for Manny Pacquiao, they are Rios and Alvarado but Pacquiao team feels that fighting Rios will be more exciting.
We have to remember that this is the first fight after the deadly sixth round knockout he had from Marquez last December 2012. So, this is a big challenge for him, considering Rios is not a very big name as he is in the boxing field.
Koncz, the adviser of Manny Pacquiao, said that if he will lose again against Rios this November, then this may be the right time for Manny to think if he will leave the boxing career. We are not sure if what Manny Pacquiao is focusing and doing right now, as we all know that he is also a politician in Philippines, he also runs several businesses in their hometown. These might be the reason that he can’t concentrate in his training for his upcoming fights, but nobody can tell. So for all boxing fans out there, let’s support their fight this November, you can buy Pacquiao vs Rios tickets from us and watch the Pacquiao vs Rios live streaming from your home on the fight night.
Crash Course: Pacquiao-Rios
On Saturday, Manny Pacquiao — No. 3 in SI.com’s latest pound-for-pound list — will take on Brandon Rios for a minor welterweight title at The Venetian’s Cotai Arena in Macau, China. The fight will be televised by HBO Pay Per View, for a suggested price of $59.95.
Pacquiao, 34, a former eight division champion, is coming off his second straight defeat. Last December, Pacquiao was knocked out in the sixth round by Juan Manuel Marquez in the fourth fight of an epic rivalry. One of the top draws in boxing, Pacquiao will earn a guaranteed $18 million for this fight with an upside that could drive his purse north of $30 million.
Rios, 27, a former junior welterweight champion, is moving up to 147-pounds for the first time. An entertaining brawler, Rios is coming off a narrow decision defeat to Mike Alvarado, who Rios defeated by knockout in 2012. Rios will earn $4 million for this fight.
Background
Despite back-to-back losses — including a questionable decision defeat to Tim Bradley last year — Pacquiao remains one of boxing’s few remaining superstars. Possessing superior power, speed and accuracy, Pacquiao blazed a trail of dominance from 2008 to 2010, when he stopped Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton and Miguel Cotto. However, lackluster wins over Shane Mosley and Juan Manuel Marquez in ’11 and an uninspired performance against Bradley in ’12 have been signs that Pacquiao has begun to decline. Last December, Pacquiao met Marquez in the fourth installment of a historic rivalry. It was a competitive fight early, with both Pacquiao and Marquez scoring knockdowns in the first five rounds. Then came the sixth, when Pacquiao, leading on all three judges scorecards, rushed into a picture-perfect Marquez right hand. The shot knocked him out, creating the first clear cut finish between the two fighters. Afterwards, on the advice of his trainer, Freddie Roach, Pacquiao took 11 months off, the longest layoff of his career. Rios is not considered one of boxing’s most skilled fighters, but he is one of its most entertaining. A come forward brawler carved from the mold of the late Arturo Gatti, Rios loves a good fight. He burst on the national scene in 2011, when he knocked out veteran Miguel Acosta for a 135-pound title. Rios moved up to 140-pounds in 2012 to stop Alvarado and claim a 140-pound title. He is not the most disciplined fighter; Rios has missed weight in two of his last four fights, costing him his lightweight title.
While Rios and Pacquiao have been respectful of each other, the tension between their camps has been palpable. Rios is trained by Robert Garcia, who was caught on film in 2010 laughing while two of his fighters, Rios and Antonio Margarito, mocked the symptoms of Roach’s Parkinson’s disease, and Alex Ariza, Pacquiao’s former strength and conditioning coach who was fired by Roach in August. On Tuesday, a scuffle broke out between Roach and members of Rios’s team at an open workout. During the expletive-laced melee, Ariza could be heard mocking Roach’s problems with Parkinson’s, including referring to Roach as a “stuttering prick.
Official weights announced at Friday’s weigh-in
Matchup
Rios isn’t complicated: He comes straight forward and wears opponents down. Though he lacks one-punch power, Rios scores knockouts in the later rounds. Four of his last five wins have come by knockout, three of which came in the fifth round or later. He loves fighting on the inside, professing that his ideal fight is when it becomes a test of wills. Rios has an excellent chin — he has been knocked down just once as a professional — and seems to gain momentum when the fight gets more physical. He won’t avoid many punches, but he won’t miss an opportunity to throw many, either.
Pacquiao has slowed down considerably the last few years. Though still fast with cutting power, Pacquiao no longer relentlessly pursues opponents for entire rounds. Lately, he has fought in bursts and has not knocked an opponent out since 2009. He is still dangerous, though not nearly as dangerous as he used to be.
And then there is the question of how Pacquiao will bounce back after last year’s devastating knockout. Over the last few months, Pacquiao and his team have gone to great lengths to assure the public that Pacquiao has moved on from the loss. But history suggests that knockouts like that can have lingering effects, and if Pacquiao is hesitant or unsure of himself, Rios will be right there to take advantage.
The Odds
According to Las Vegas betting website Bovada.lv, Pacquiao is a heavy favorite at -500. Rios is the underdog at +350.
Prediction
Is Pacquiao the same fighter he was before getting knocked out by Marquez? This is the fight’s biggest question. If Pacquiao is fully recovered, he rolls. Rios was handpicked because he isn’t difficult to hit, lacks crushing power and is moving up in weight. A sharp Pacquiao will carve Rios up, battering him with flurries that Rios isn’t fast enough to counter. But what if Pacquiao has lost a step? Then he could be in trouble. Rios may not be able to floor Pacquiao like Marquez did, but he can get a stoppage by applying relentless pressure. For now, you have to give Pacquiao the benefit of the doubt. He may not be the Pacquiao of 2009, but he is still better than Rios. Pacquiao by unanimous decision.

Boxing news: Pacquiao vs. Rios fight fireworks expected Saturday, 7 pm HBO
SAN DIEGO, November 22, 2013 – After months of anticipation, international media tours, training camp and Fight Week events including fireworks between the trainers, in just a few hours fans will finally see the biggest bout of the fall 2013 boxing season, Manny Pacquiao versus Brandon Rios in Macau, China, “The Clash in Cotai.”
Eight division champion Pacquiao (54-5-2, 38 KOs) and former lightweight titlist Ríos (31-1-1, 22 KOs) will compete for the WBO World Welterweight Title on HBO pay per view Saturday November 23, at 9 p.m. ET. This is HBO’s first pay-per-view event outside of the U.S.

Communities Digital News will host a live online chat starting at 7 p.m. ET with the televised undercard fights.
After an eventful week, both Pacquiao and Rios made weight for the fight. The weigh-in took place at 7:30 a.m. in Macau to accommodate American media and live TV. Pacquiao weighed in at 145 pounds even; Rios at 146.5 pounds. On stage, the pair were calm and respectful with each other. Rios received boos, and after he stepped off the scale, he egged on the crowd’s catcalls.
But Rios can’t keep his famous mouth quiet for long, calling out Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach for trash talking him about making weight. “
“This message goes out to Freddie Roach who said I’m a bum, I’m a fat loser and I can never make weight — guess what, I made weight, I feel great,” Rios said.

“When you doubt me you make me stronger. (They) are worried, I’m not worried, I feel confident.”
Roach laughed off the comment, saying Rios struggled to make it even though he had now moved up two weight divisions in three fights. “If he can’t make 147 he’s a joke,” Roach said. “He almost couldn’t make 135 or 140 and even at 147 he struggled every day, he had plastics on. This is a world title fight, you make weight.”
The comments followed a week in which the Rios and Pacquiao camps got into an ugly exchange of words at the training facility in Macau where they are sharing ring time. After Thursday’s news conference, Rios had the facilities booked from 9 to 11 p.m.; Pacquiao had the following two hours.
Rios and his team started their session due to a delay wrapping up their news conference. When Roach arrived, he got hot with Rios trainer Robert Garcia for overstaying their assigned time. It escalated into an ugly shouting match, joined with gusto by Rios’ strength coach Alex Ariza who used to work with Roach and Pacquiao.

Ariza made fun of Roach’s Parkinson’s disease and in the scuffle, kicked Roach in the chest before security separated everyone. Roach fired off some coarse comments of his own; Garcia called him a racist. “Now it’s personal, It was all caught on video by multiple media including HBO. Garcia later apologized for his camp’s behavior. Be aware before opening the video link here that the language is raw and uncensored, not for the kiddies.
It has been two years since Manny Pacquiao won a fight, and 11 months since his shocking knockout loss to Juan Manuel Marquez. Brandon Rios is also coming off a loss, a unanimous decision to Mike Alvarado, the first of his career.
Both fighters feel they have a lot to prove. Pacquiao not only wants to get his career back on track, he has been given extra motivation by the devastation suffered in his native Philippines following Hurricane Haiyan. Pacquiao had dedicated the fight to his country.
An elected Congressman from his home province of Sarangani, Pacquiao told Associated Press “I really want to visit the area and personally do what I can to help our countrymen who have suffered so much in this terrible tragedy, but I’m in deep training for a crucial fight so I regret I cannot go,” he said to the Associated Press.
Rios is a crowd-pleasing fighter who loves to bring the action. He likes to hit, and he likes getting hit. Rios has proved he can take tremendous punishment while dishing it out. He isn’t afraid of anyone. He wants to show the world he’s the real deal and deserves to be in the ring with one of the world’s all-time greatest boxers and a future Hall of Famer.

Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios Odds and Betting Preview
Manny (The Pac Man) Pacquiao is set to take on Brandon Rios at the Cotai Arena in Macao. Pacquiao, who is 1.2 with Ladbrokes to win the fight, is desperate to get a win on the cards after losing two consecutive fights for the first time in his almost 20 year career.
The challenger, Brandon Rios is a 27 year old Texan, who lost his rematch with the mighty Mike Alvarado earlier in the year. Both fighters are going to be looking to get back to winning ways and the fight is likely to be hard fought. Rios goes into the fight as the outsider at 5.00 with bet365.
Whilst that might seem a tough book to bet into, as boxing always does, Pacquiao looks desperately short at 1.2 to win this. Pacquiao is 34 now and battle hardened to say the least, with over 60 fights to his name now, and hasn’t fought for nearly a year. The Roach camp are shouting loud but they will be worried behind their cool facade.
Brandon Rios isn’t necessarily quite the cannon fodder that the bookies’ prices would suggest. The young welterweight has had 31 fights and only lost one of them. Whilst in U.S. Boxing rising through the ranks is something which can often take time, his recent match up with Alvarado was eye catching and he clearly has punching power.
That punching power bodes well for Rios, three out of five of Pacquiao’s losses have come by way of knockout and J M Marquez’s most recent triumph in December of last year will be seared on the minds of both boxers.
Rios stands close to no chance of going the distance with Pacquiao and a knock out looks very much on the cards. Rios has been somewhat unruly in the build up to the fight, mirroring the pathetic behaviour of George Groves in the build up to his UK world title clash with Carl Froch this Saturday. Roach came out on Thursday saying that Pacquiao wouldn’t accept such disrespect and suggested the fight would likely go less than four rounds before Rios was KO’d.
Paddy Power are a stand out 17.00 for the Manny to win in the 4th round and it could be a shrewd bet as high class boxers do like to deliver on their promises. We saw this with David Haye in his world title defence against Audley Harrison. At 17.00 it seems like a potentially decent punt.
The only worry with KO betting is that both boxers enter the fight off the back of losses. This often leads to careful fighting and there is a chance that there might be a bit of dancing around the ring. However I am going to take the liberty of suggesting that this will not be the case. If Pacquiao is going to continue fighting then he needs to assert his dominance over Rios, particularly if he is going to get the chance at another title shot. Meanwhile, when fighting a boxer of the stature of Pacquiao there is very little to lose and to become the man that toppled the mighty M.P would be quite an accolade.
The fight therefore is likely to be a fierce clash. As a boxing fan I would love to see the great Pacquiao pick up another victory, however at 1.2 I really cannot be backing that. I would much rather have Rios to win by K.O at 7.5 with bet365.
My view is that the boxers that fight too long end up going down and they go down hard. There is value to be had backing opponents at this point and I think the sensible money will be on Rios. Pacquiao has his eye on a political career and hasn’t fought for a year. Rios is 27, hungry and eager to show the world what he is made of.
All I can say is do not back Pacquiao at 1.2 to win the fight. My recommendation would be to back Rios, if you’re a betting man then back him to win by K.O and if you can’t stomach that (because it would be a very sad thing to watch) then back Rios to win at 5.00 with bet365.
I personally will be having a saver on Manny to do the job in the fourth at 17.00 with Paddy Power but that is only because I love him. He is the greatest boxer I have ever watched. He has risen through the weights and done it with class. He never boxed Mayweather but Pacquiao is not to blame for that.
The value at present is with Rios. Back him and back him hard, he is value to win this and value is something you don’t come by often in boxing. Unless you are Donn King that is.
2 point win: Rios to win by K.O at 7.5 with bet365
Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios: Where to Watch Live, Preview and Predictions
Manny Pacquiao looks to get his career back on track when he faces Brandon Rios on 23 November at the Cotal Arena in Macau, China.
Where to Watch Live
The fight can be seen live on subscription channel BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch 546) from 1.30am BST on Sunday 24 November. BoxNation will donate £2 from every new subscription this week to the Disasters Emergency Committee’s appeal for victims of Super Typhoon Haiyan.
Overview
Pacquiao enters this contest on the back of a brutal knockout at the hands of Juan Manuel Marquez in December 2012. It was his second consecutive defeat after a controversial points loss to Timothy Bradley and led to talk that he should walk away from the sport some 18 years after his professional debut back in January 1995.
Some believe the Filipino legend has lost his sharpness and even his own trainer, Freddie Roach, has stated that an underwhelming performance against Rios would lead him to advise Pacquiao to walk away from the fight game.
But the 34-year-old truly believes that he can still be a major force in a hugely competitive welterweight division and will undoubtedly still dream of a showdown with long-time rival Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Roach has stated that Pacquiao still has the “hunger” to be a champion and has even predicted that Rios will not be able to make it past the fourth round.
Pacquaio’s opponent is also entering the ring on the back of a loss, the first of his career, in what was a fight-of-the-year contender against Mike Alvarado. The 27-yearo-old’s aggressive, come-forward, style makes him an exciting fighter to watch and he earned plenty of fans despite losing to his fellow American in March.
Rios has never shared a ring with a fighter on the same level as Pacquiao but he is confident that he will be able to wear down his naturally smaller opponent. The California resident boasts an impressive 70% knockout ratio and believes he has witnessed a severe decline in Pacquiao’s skills.
The build-up to the fight has however been as much about the trainers as it has been the fighters. Roach has consistently clashed with Robert Garcia, with the pair almost coming to blows just days ago in front of the world’s press.
Roach was accused of making racial slurs against the Rios camp who responded nastily when Alex Ariza, who is the former conditioning coach of Pacquiao and now works with Rios, aimed a kick at the trainer and mocked the fact that he suffers from Parkinson’s.
All the spice has led to a hugely anticipated bout that will either reaffirm Pacquaio’s status as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world, or will prove that Rios is a genuine threat to the best welterweights in the world.
Prediction
While the memory of Pacquiao lying flat out after being caught by a vicious shot from Marquez still looms large in the memory there can be little doubt that he has the far more impressive resume and should overcome Rios. The eight-division world champion still looked sharp in his last fight and should have the power to stop his younger opponent.
Rios is a pressure fighter and may well struggle when Pacquiao manages to find his timing as he will be walking onto shots. While he may cause the Filipino problems in the early few rounds, constant punishment will take its toll and a stoppage in the second half of the fight may well be there for the taking.

Had you asked me what to expect from the weigh-ins a week ago, I would have said they were likely to be pretty uneventful. Pacquiao and Rios have been very chummy throughout the extended press build to the fight, with their photos looking more like buddies out on the town than upcoming opponents. But that changed this week when Pacquiao head trainer Freddie Roach got into a physical altercation with Rios’s camp, led by Alex Ariza. It was an intense moment that has added a big question mark to this promotional event. It will be interesting to see how each camp responds at this event.

Pacquiao (vs. Rios live)was born the fourth of six siblings on Dec. 17, 1978 in the town of Kibawae, in the Bukidnon province of the Philippines. Pacquiao ran away from home as a child, leaving the day he discovered life had gotten so desperate that his father had actually eaten the family dog. He lived off the streets, often slept in a cardboard box, and sold doughnuts for a nickel to survive. As a 14-year-old, Pacquiao moved to Manila and continued his fight out of poverty by turning to boxing. He had a solid amateur career, winning 60 of 64 fights. After the death of a close friend and fellow boxer, Pacquiao, at 16, still under 5 feet tall and several pounds under even the lightest weight permitted to compete as a professional, turned pro anyway. To make his 105-pound debut, Pacquiao later confessed to hiding weights in his pockets when he stepped on the scales. Nearly 10 years later, Pacquiao finally arrived in America. On Nov. 15, 2003, he knocked out future hall of famer Marco Antonio Barrera in the 11th round to begin one of the most mythic decades in the history of boxing.

Maybe if Pacquiao either dies or suffers permanent damage in the ring, fighting for his people, perhaps he’ll end up even more bankable. Before all this is done, martyrdom might be the most convenient justification for the sum of far too many foul parts that surround Pacquiao’s lasting legacy.
““The world breaks everyone, and afterward, many are strong at the broken places.”” — Ernest Hemingway
Despite earning nearly $200 million during his brilliant career, Pacquiao always hemorrhaged money. In his next 20 fights, Pacquiao accumulated 10 world titles and became the first man ever to do so in an unprecedented eight weight divisions, from light-flyweight to junior-middleweight. He knocked out Mexican legend Erik Morales twice, avenged a draw against Marquez with two subsequent victories, retired Oscar De La Hoya on his stool, pulverized Ricky Hatton in two rounds, moved up in weight even further to batter Miguel Cotto into submission, sent Antonio Margarito to the hospital with a fractured orbital bone, then dispatched Shane Mosley and Marquez once more. The remarkable run finally ended with a highly controversial loss against Timothy Bradley in the summer of 2012.
Gary Andrew Poole’s 2010 biography, “Pacman,” laid out how Pacquiao’s contracts were split: After his manager’s took their 20-percent cut, his trainer Freddie Roach took 10 percent, strength and conditioning coach Alex Ariza shaved off a few more points. There were also training camp expenses, tax bills in the U.S. and the Philippines, and his boundless, ever-growing entourage, all guzzling funds. According to a 2009 New York Times article by Greg Bishop, “Team Pacquiao has perfected the art of dysfunction. The entourage consists of trainers, assistants to the trainers, advisers, assistants to the advisers, cooks, dishwashers, car washers, publicists, gofers and security.” For each fight, Pacquiao also spent hundreds of thousands of dollars flying his entourage to Las Vegas, buying hundreds of tickets, covering hotel rooms, and providing spending money. In the Times article, Michael Koncz, singled out Pacquiao’s Achilles’ heel: “The downfall of Pacquiao, if there is one, will be his kindness and generosity. At some point, I fear that’s going to catch up to him.” Beyond Pacquiao’s generosity, he reportedly squandered millions from gambling. That doesn’t even account for his fleet of cars and extensive property holdings, including houses, condos, apartments and such an intense desire to give his money away to the poor he had to hire people simply charged with the responsibility to apologize and prevent him from throwing money at all the open hands spread out before him.
I flew out to Houston to interview George Foreman, one of boxing’s rare success stories. What was Big George’s secret? After the success of his signature grill (the Times reported in 1999 that the George Foreman Grill had already earned him in excess of $150 million) and a second reign as heavyweight champion, Foreman is reportedly now worth nearly a quarter billion dollars. Yet, before we could start the interview, with a note of gentle caution, George’s son, George V, asked me to avoid any slippery questions with dates and names. “His head’s fine,” George V smiled reassuringly, “Pop’s just getting a little older is all.”
Watch Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios Live
Brandon Rios talks about his style, his approach, and whether or not he’s letting his first pro loss get to him.
You’ve had tremendous success as a professional. You fought undefeated for nearly 10 years. You enter this fight in unfamiliar territory after falling to Alvarado. Will you prepare for this fight any differently than you always have? If so, how do you prepare so that you don’t completely alter approach as a fighter to the point that you’ve moved away from what has made you a success?
“I’m going to fight the way I always fight. The only difference is I have to train in a smarter way. I can’t train to fight the way I fought with Alvarado and other fighters I have fought. I have to train smart, train to fight Manny Pacquiao. I’m going to train the same way and fight the same way but in a smarter way, because I can’t change my style of fighting. I can’t change something that has got me where I am now. The way I fight is the reason I have the wins I have, the reason I have the fans I have and the reason I’m fighting the biggest fight in my career on November 23 in Macau, China.
“Falling to Alvarado in Rios vs. Alvarado II didn’t affect me at all, what affected me was training to the Alvarado I fought the first time at the Home Depot Center. That’s what affected me. I trained to fight hard, yes but to fight the Alvarado I fought before. When I trained for Alvarado the first time on October 13, 2012 I was confident and I was ready 100% for the fight. When I trained for Alvarado second time, I would say I was over confident because I knew I had hurt him the first fight I had already beat him. Therefore I believed I could do it again. That’s where I messed up because I didn’t really think he was going to change his game. I didn’t train for a different Alvarado, I honestly didn’t think he was going to change his routine. I trained for the Alvarado I had fought a few months back, that’s where I messed up.
“This fight, Pacquaio vs. Rios, it’s going to be different I am going to train for everything. I am going to train for everything Manny Pacquiao is going to bring and some. I’m not going to assume he’s going to come into the fight like the Pacquiao that recently got knocked out. No, I’m training for the best Manny Pacquiao, I’m training for the elite fighter he is. I can never underestimate any of my opponents because at the end of the day, they want the same thing I want. A win. Getting that win, I have to assume Pacquaio is going to come in the best shape of his life, because he’s hungry again. Manny Pacquiao wants and needs that win on November 23 just like I want that win. So like I said before, I’m going to train for the best Manny Pacquiao there has ever been. I will train hard like I always do. I will give the fans the exciting fights they love to see, and I’m sure Pacquiao wants the same thing. I will fight like the Brandon Rios my fans love to see, but like I said I will train smarter, I will fight smarter. The loss to Alvarado earlier this year was a blessing in disguise, because I lost the fight to the cards, a very close fight. On the other hand I won something else, I won the experience, the experience to never be overconfident again. To always train for all scenarios, and that’s exactly what I am going to do.”
