Rios would whoop up on Garcia and pick up two straps in the process. Marquez has the WBO title at 140 now... Would culminate in a major PPV and Jr Welter unification fight. I'd rather see Rios hang around 140 for a while before jumping to Welter. So many great matchups at 140 for him....
Marquez
Garcia
Khan
Matthysse
Maidana
Morales
H. Soto
Let him take on a couple of the above names, make a bigger name for himself then jump up to take on the Welters.
Garcia, Peterson, and Matthysse all have the tools to beat Rios. That doesn't mean they all would beat Rios but I think all three would beat Alvarado. Rios chin has a great but has been hurt badly from body shots against Acosta and early in his career against Joel Ortega. Lucas and Lamont do great to the body and would take a lot of the stream off of Rios's punches IMO.
Don't get me wrong Rio's looked great last night but Alvarado's biggest wins are against Herrera and Prescott, good fighters but exactly the best at 140. And Alvarado took a beating in the fight against Prescott.
Garcia would get beat the hell up.... His daddy would be forced to stop that fight.
nothing would give me more satisfaction than to see that... ****ing viejo is obnoxious..
Danny isn't gonna stay there and let rios tee off on him
Danny doesn't box though, I don't know where people are getting this idea, he likes to stand within punchers' range and counter/ punch with his opponents, that's how he operates. He's extremely dangerous because he operates like that, but Rios has proven time and time again that he's very resilient. To me it comes down to whether or not Garcia can handle Rios' constant pressure. Brandon mixes his attack up very well and Garcia's defense is still leaky.
Rios beats Garcia, too resilient, too durable. Mind you I like Danny, but I don't know whether he can take the kind of punishment Rios would lash out on him, which is a lot in my opinion, the same question doesn't need to be asked to Rios. Will Rios get inside? Yes, will Rios get the better of him in close? Of course, can't see Danny winning. Garcia is durable though, took Holt's punches very well but Rios will hit him a lot more than Holt did.

if garcia can't hurt rios he losses
and frankly i don't think he can he's too small... not to mention easy to hit and rios has a granite chin
Garcia is the best puncher at 140 and has more skills and discipline than rios

Danny would tee off on his ass! Rios will come forward all night and Danny will beat the **** out of him

Im not so sure he stops Garcia let alone beats hims. But I agree there are some great match ups at 140. Rios vs Peterson would be a great fight IMO, but Matthysse vs Rios is probably one the best fights that could be made right now. I think Matthysse stops Rios in a war.
