Manny Pacquiao will bid to get back to winning ways when he returns to the ring against Brandon Rios in China on November 24. The former pound-for-pound king heads into the welterweight showdown with Rios on the back of successive defeats to Timothy Bradley and Juan Manuel Marquez. And Pacquiao, 34, will be desperate to prove he is not a spent force after being knocked out cold by Marquez in the sixth round of their December bout. Confirming the fight, set for the Venetian Resort in Macau, Pac-Man�s trainer Freddie Roach said: �Manny is definitely going to get his mojo back with this fight. �I think it�ll be an exciting fight, but Manny is going to land and knock this guy out somewhere along the way. �Rios likes to exchange and his style is not really difficult to figure out, so Manny�s gonna hit him.� Rios, 27, is also coming off a loss after Mike Alvarado claimed a unanimous points decision in their March contest in Las Vegas. The defeat to Alvarado is the only time the American has lost in his 33-fight career.
