Rios- I don’t understand all the hype surrounding him!!!

[Box3r]

That was the corpse of Brandon Rios last night.

I'm not judging him on that fight!!! I don’t like to judge boxers on one Particular fight... Over all I think he is hyped way too much.. The guy is just a come forward fighter he likes to brawl...

9 out of 10 a boxer beats a brawler...

anyone who knows boxing knows that hes a mexican katsidas and will get exposed when he fights someone without a huge weight advantage

Thank you.. Forget the weight issue, I think a good boxer takes him.. Just like a decent boxer(Peterson) took Ortiz to a draw..

Exactly.


That's why I think out of the top 3, 140 fighters. Khan would completely outclass him.

he's still rising

Only thing I see getting better of Rios is his power apart from that I don't see his boxing skills getting any better.

If that was the case we would almost never have any world champions who were not slick tacticians.

He is in my top ten favourite fighters currently but i think he is a bit too hyped up, Khan would school him not too sure about Guerrero that would be a good fight and can see that being made at 140, could rios walk him down??

Defiantly the guy is amazing to watch but it pretty much ends there.. We like all out dog fighters/brawlers.. I loved watching Katsidis but he came up short against boxers.. And I agree I think Khan does skool him but I also personally think Guerrero takes him as well...

The guy is tough as shit, has good power, and is well schooled in regards to what he is.....a pressure fighter, he cuts off the ring particularly well.

Same was said about Maidana and his power surpasses Rios's...

that wasnt brandon rios last night

Who was it then??? Btw i don't go by that fight alone...

Why can't people just enjoy an exciting and fun fighter? The guy is a brawling machine, he'll either crack the top p4p lists one day or get KTFO trying but he's gonna provide us with some exciting and FOTY worthy fights.

It is a foolish mindset to think one style is superior to another, better fighters impose their styles on inferior ones.
