i like both of them but i think brandon rios would win cuz of his pressure look at what devon alexander did to him he didnt like that pressure but i do think brandon rios will get stunned a couple of times
Maidana at 140 was a BRUTAL body puncher if you stood right in front of him. Rios has always had problems with body punches (like Maidana, except Rios isn't known as a body puncher where as Maidana at 140 was). Maidana has had a tendency of stopping or at least dropping guys who have never been down before (like Victor Cayo 24-0 (rd 6 KO, dropped twice), Petr Petrov 29-2 (rd 4 KO, dropped 3 times), Victor Ortiz 24-1 (rd 6 TKO, dropped twice) and Rios wouldn't be the exception. Unlike Rios, Maidana has never been stopped so why would we assume Rios would somehow stop him? Someone said Maidana has only faced 1 puncher...which puncher has Rios faced exactly? Mike Alvarado is an ok puncher, not a big puncher and he was hurting Rios. Maidana was a much bigger puncher and a lot more durable. Face it, Rios' prime was at 135, not 140. Maidana would have eaten Rios alive, chewed him up and spit him out.
Man hahahaha you are ****in crazy! Hahahaha all the belts hahahahahahahahahahaha. ****. Leave the drugs MAN
No. Im not, I'm actually not!
I said "nearly" all the belts. Only guys who'd win would be Bradley, Pacquiao, Mayweather and everyone else would be underdogs or its a 50-50 fight with the likes of Khan, Spence Jr., Brook, Thurman, Porter, and Garcia!
The Chino that fought Mayweather gives them all hell, win or lose! We've said that if he had better stamina and a jab he'd be more dangerous and better.
Well guess what, Robert Garcia implemented that into his style!
Maidana went from a face first wild brawler puncher to a nonstop pressure puncher boxer who brings a jab to the table along with his knockout power! Tell me anyone besides Bradley, Pacquiao or Mayweather that your telling he wouldn't beat Garcia? Thurman? Winner of Brook vs Spence Jr.?
Maidana's resume would've been HOF level if he didn't retire, all welters should thank Floyd for giving him his retirement money!
Chino wins, he had an iron chin and in his prime he improved on his style so much thanks to Robert Garcia!
I think this goes the distance in a war or late ref stoppage for Marcos!
He's the superior boxer, better jab, harder puncher,and never got stopped by a bodyshot!
Wished Chino didn't retire, I'm confident if he didn't and Mayweather retired, he'd collect nearly all the belts at welter!

dude i know that you hate argentinians but rios got his shit pushed back in by bradley, the same bradley who can't punch his way out of a wet paper bag, and also he was rocked hard by alvarado in their rematch, and alavardo is a zombie on crack.
I hate stupid fans, it's not my problem that your guys are very stupid in this sport to think things like Cuellar was a monster or Rueda had chances vs Oscar.
Pffff, that's not a prime Rios, DUDE. Like Margarito was not in his prime vs Cotto II or pacquiao. Rios had the best chin, no doubt about that and in a fight toe vs toe that is the principal factor.
Learn about boxing.

Rios.
Rios has a crazy jaw and Maidana don't, he was floored by Ortiz and ****in Khan, and old and fat Morales iced him for a moment. That will be the key of this fantasy match.
Maidana never faced good power punchers(only Ortiz but this guy had crystal jaw), always faced guys like pillows hands like Broner in 147, Floyd, Khan, etc.
Real warriors are because they are in the war zone vs power punchers.

Maidana fought a terrible fight against Devon and was no where near his prime. He improved a lot training with Garcia. That was obvious in his excellent performances against Broner and Mayweather. That was the prime Maidana. That version of Maidana would have defeated Khan and Devon in rematches and would have defeated Rios at his best in my opinion.
yep he was more technical....for sure.....

i wanna go for maidana to but i think rios could walk thru some of his shots and land something good to win i would have it rios by ko with pressure and maidana by points
chino was really sick for the devon fight, he went like 20 times to the bathroom that night at the end they had to help him because he already had his gloves on.
i'd go with chino obviously but it would've been a helluva fight for sure.
