DOES this version of BAM BAM stop Floyd Mayweather???

Come on Golovkin be realistic... I always hated how the whole board was (and still is) riding maidana bandwagon like he was some great fighter, Rios is not better than him, he could be maybe worse. When any journeyman performs good, the whole board is hopping on his bandwagon and immediatly after that you guys are openning a thread called "would (such and such name) beat Mayweather?" and most of them wouldn't stand a chance.

Terrible thread. Floyd eats slow plodders for breakfast. Full English or continental?

No version of Rios beats Floyd Ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some people Know Nothing about boxing !

Rios is faster and both are slow guys, but Rios is faster than Margo and Maidana. Pacquiao makes guys look slow, also Margarito just came to fight that day against Pac, Rios admit he was nervous and was sleepy heading into the Pac fight and it showed but he also said Pacquiao is just too fast and slippery. Rios is not faster than Maidana. Rios and fast shouldn't even be in the same sentence.

The hate is so real for Floyd.

Come on... Rios has no chance against Floyd. You couldn't design an easier style for Floyd to humiliate. He would be 10 feet away every time Rios loaded up one of his deliberate uppercuts and Rios would be stumbling around in a straight line. Alvarado was not in good shape, the fight didn't show us anything of significance because the opponent was a dud. Rios would pummel down Floyd in the first few rounds, Floyd would struggle to adjust and it would become a game of chess with the master himself, Rios. Eventually he'd realise he couldn't win or was getting knocked out and would get himself DQ'd Hopkins style. Thats why this fight will never happen and he'll take the easier route with Pacman.

Maybe. You'll never know cos they will never fight. It will be really hard though cos Floyd will demand extra test after extra testing to suck the blood outta Rios then weight drain him before tell him to wear pillow gloves. Lastly they will have to fight in a football stadium (size ring)

Rios? You're having a laugh, right?

Margarito actually looked faster than him when they both fought Pacquiao. Rios is faster and both are slow guys, but Rios is faster than Margo and Maidana. Pacquiao makes guys look slow, also Margarito just came to fight that day against Pac, Rios admit he was nervous and was sleepy heading into the Pac fight and it showed but he also said Pacquiao is just too fast and slippery.

Man that would be wild, if Floyd fought a plodding brawler, that's never happened before.

I wouldn't say he stops him, but he has a much better chance of stopping Floyd than Pacquiao. Bam Bam is basically a high pressure fighter with an iron chin and heavy hands and great stamina. Rios will hit Floyd everywhere and he is faster than Maidana and has a better chin and Maidana was able to hit Floyd, also those Uppercuts would land on Floyd if Floyd covered up, nobody tthrows uppercut on him and the shoulder roll doesn't seem to have a defense for them. HE would be a faster version of Margarito.

So many uninformed boxing fans buying into the "0" nonsense. Rios is a monster and his diet is unbeaten records, once he feasts on Mayweather he should look at moving up to middle- even supermiddle, he's got the high pressure style with a better inside game to take Ward to school.

The Bam Bam of last Saturday night looked more agile and alive than ever. He was much more dynamic than his usual stationary self. Rios looked alive on his feet, looking for angles, setting up dynamic combinations (straights, uppercuts, hooks)... It was truly impressive to see IMO. Floyd has never fought anybody with a devastating uppercut, that's why he ducked Margarito IMHO. NOW, IF Bam Bam would have fought Floyd that night... DO YOU BELIEVE Bam Bam Rios would have stopped him? https://expatbrian.files.wordpress.com/2007/06/dumb_and_dumbererp7.jpg

Alvarado looked like a shot burnt out drug addict. Of course Rios looked good, the guy wasn't even trying to fight and was looking to quit which he did in his corner. Then the lack of respect in the interview to his fans tells you where mentally he is right now

everyone knows this! before everyone been saying its really a 50/50 fight http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=638424 and this was before Brandon got serious, now its clear as day Rios murders him, hell even mayweather know this thats why he befriended Rios and sent him front row tickets to his fights etc it was to get on Rios good side and hopefully prevent Rios from challenging him. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Rios loses to any top level 147lb fighter SERIOUSLY :chairshot rios is basically undefeated at 147. just like cotto when he fought floyd.
