Sweet I don't see to many peeps from Colorado on here. I'm in Greeley about an hour from Denver.

Personally, I would prefer Rios fight Mathysse but whatever.

Alvardo was losing to Prescott if I'm not mistaken. Still a descent fight that I would tune in and watch. I'd give Rios the edge to win though.

Mathysse is with Golden Boy and Rios was losing to Acosta so what's the problem?

Honestly, I think that GBP-Top Rank beef only applies for Floyd-Pac or Floyd vs any other Top Rank fighter. Top Rank and GBP have made lesser known fights in the past.

And Rios was not losing to Acosta.

Once in a blue moon they put a fight together. And I guess we have a different point of view about the Acosta fight. I thought he was beating Rios before the KD's starting raining.

I don't think Rios could beat Marquez, Alvarado or Mathysse.

this is a fantasy type of fight, only it's a 'fantasy' that could actually come true.

I would love to see this fight, but Rios should definitely have a few tune up fights before going after Alvarado whose comfortable at the weight.

^In this thread, I talk about the possible match up between Rios and Breidis Prescott, I think that would be a perfect fight for Rios to debut and show his stuff. And it'd be competitive too, we all saw how Breidis was putting a beating on Alvy early on
