Miguel Vazquez vs Brandon Rios

Close fight.

Rios got major exposure due to Margarito training in the same gym

Vasquez will brake down Rios and make him look mediocre

There no need to put Rios in with a mover like that he needs to be matched with guys who'll fight more than box. He'll have issues with those type guys plus why waste his prime fighting someone who won't engage know his strenghts and match accordingly Unification. Miguel has earned a shot at Rios.

For those of you who don't know. Before Rios fought Acosta, there was talks about Rios vs Vasquez but Rios opted to go with the easier fight against Acosta and pulled out before anything was brought out in the open media.

I've noticed that too. He's been facing nothing but big punchers, and he's been schooling them. If Rios doesn't move up next, this should be his next fight. A win would prove that he really is a big deal. If Vazquez beats Rios(Big if) could he ever become popular?

If I wanted to prepare for Rios I would fight Prescott, Ji Hoon Kim, Dominguez and Zappavigna. Its like they've been grooming him for Rios. I've noticed that too.

What about Marquez??? I can't see Marquez returning to 135 at this point. He'll either take his nice paycheck from the Pacquiao fight and retire, or go after the 4th title at 140 against Bradley or Khan.

What about Marquez??? For me he's not in the equation with the Pac fight happening. But he could be in trouble because he will stand and trade. I would slightly favor JMM. Miguel would seem to be Rios's kryptonite. Punch move, punch hold. He's tall and awkard with a good jab. Will never exchange.

Damn, I didn't even realize I was the one who started this thread lol

This is the only fighter I truly believe can beat Rios at Lightweight. What about Marquez???

If Rios was able to stop Acosta then I think he should be able to beat Vazquez. Canelo couldn't KO Vazquez in two fights. Canelo and Bradley are the only ones who could beat Miguel. Acosta will stand and trade(His downfall) Vazquez will not.( Ever) He will fight the ugly fight. Can Rios deal with that?

Vazquez my dude,But he is boring as fck.Even his knockout in his last fight was boring.

If Rios was able to stop Acosta then I think he should be able to beat Vazquez.

This fight should be a real possibility now. Mexican BHop vs little Margarito. Make it happen.
