Rios is nothing but a crap talker and has no charisma. Hope the guy loses in this next fight. Can't stand this kid. Fighters should be humble and just show what they can do instead of talk smack.

I think it's best to have a little counter-balance. It makes for exciting build up's, as well as for exciting fights. I mean look at Manny vs. Shane or Manny vs. Clottey. All the niceties were/are pretty boring. Mayorga/Cotto is intreging, not because Mayorga is going to be competetive(I think he's pretty much past it), but it's intreging, because Mayorga my very well be one of the top 10 ATG's in ***** talkin. JMHO.

Word on twitter is that Rios may be over weight by 4LBS.

Only a rumor though.

If you had your way there would be no Ali, Duran, Whitaker, Macho Camacho, Paez, and many other greats that have added to the appeal of boxing.

You want the sport and it's athletes to be boring
