lol @ everyone assuming Rios will lose because he should have loss to Abril.
A 5'11 Cuban fighter with solid defense.
Marquez will engage and it will turn into a fire fight.
That will make it competitive and far more competitive than Diaz (featherfisted) and Katsidis (Rios much bigger and stronger)
Agree Bro. Rios looked bad tonite bt who wont with abril's ackward ass. It would be a helluva fight tho while it last. Sucks cuz they're both my fav fighters bt i see JMM maybe late KO. Mans a genius and legendary.
A big Rio's fan but he did lose the fight. Who knows if it would be different had he been fighting @140. Dude's style is not good at all for anybody in that weight class. So for everybody talkin **** don't do it on bam bam blame BOB ARUM'S ****** ASS! Happened to Lundy and Prescott what made you think won't happen wit Rio's. ****s done and said so move on. Hopefully he looks good next fight which im sure he will.
WOW! Picture Perfect Shot lol. I didnt get to see this fight but it sure looks like Ponce is on his way up again. It be interesting how a rematch with Juanma go, now that we've seen Juanma get exposed and now that Ponce has improved his defense and boxing skills.
Man this is going to be a GOOD fight. I'ma Maidana fan bt idk if i see him winning this. Bt anything can happen with a flush shot and we all knw about khans chin.
Anyway i think this is how the fight will play out.
Rounds (1-4) Khans starts off really good outboxing maidana by a wide margin. He's getting really confident and cocky. Maidana lands a few shots.
(5-8) Maidana starts to pressure khan bt its still clear that khan is boxing smartly. He's using the ring really well. Bt little by little we start seeing wat maidana can do. Hint (miguel cotto vs Margarito fight.)
(9-10) Round 9 is going khans way once again although in the final minute maidana starts landing bombs and wobbles khan bad. Bell saves him only to get ko'd in the 10th in a shocker!
Just my prediction although its a 50/50 chance.
