“I Pick Pacquiao But…….”
“Manny should win, he's the better fighter, but at his age and what we've seen in his last two fights I give Rios a really good chance. Style-wise Rios seems made to order, but if Manny is deteriorating and Rios gets confident and gets on a roll, his pressure style and KO power could be a nightmare for the 2013 version of Pacquaio. I pick Pacquaio but he could be past the point where he can handle a strong, committed guy like Rios. Manny on points, but he could well get KO'd too.” –Gibola is picking Pacman, with reservations

YOU GUYS ROCK
Another stellar year from our Forum crew, the best in this known universe. Results for Reader of the Year are still being tabulated. In a moment of weakness, I hired CJ Ross to help with the computation and, well, it didn’t go well. Happy New Year to the best and brightest amateur scribes! –Editor Mike

(MGM) Grand Illusions
“Boxing is full of optical illusions. And I give Money May MAD props for doing a mix of Houdini and Marlin The Magician. Wow! Money May fought a club-fighting-like humbug in “The Cali Ghost.” And a hyped-up B fighter in Canelo. The promotions were grand to get eyeballs and easy impressionable minds behind those PPV screens. Because the live gates didn’t sell out.” –Radam isn’t sold on this being the year of Money May

War Torn But Still Dangerous
“It must be said that even a wounded, war torn Martinez is still a more dangerous threat than Canelo for Cotto. The powers that be must be expecting a phenomenal turnout.” —Brown Sugar says that Martinez is a tougher out for Cotto than Canelo
