    Marquez can stop Rios because he doesn't rely on his physical strength to power his punches. That can be absorbed. But when you throw punches with the snap and precision that Marquez does, at the angles that he does, you don't just eat those punches. It's why he was able to stop Casamayor, Diaz, Katsidis, etc. Rios' chin is good but I get the sense people are looking at him as another Margarito. He's not. Acosta backed him up a couple of times, Margarito wasn't backing off of Shane Mosley's broadsides until the 8th round. Marquez is such a damage dealing machine that I can't see Rios and his mediocre defense making it to the final bell.

      Dude JMM would destroy Rios even at his age..... I like Rios too. There's only so much Rios can handle getting hit in the face and body and JMM is not going to lay on the ropes like Rios' previous opponents. JMM would command the ring and Rios would have no answers to the combinations that JMM will land, I'd say 10th round KO. Kat vs Rios would be great though wow.

        there's no guarantee that jmm will beat rios easy... I see a long and hard 12 round fight for jmm.

        after the fight, jmm might never be the same and might become shot.

        rios is a grueling guy to fight and takes a lot outta you.

          Marquez would hit Rios flush all night.

              Rios would be the tallest and, in terms of fight night weight, second heaviest opponent JMM has ever faced. Katsidis put JMM on his ass, imagine if an even heavier, taller guy lands on that 37 year old chin.

                I love Rios heart and chin but JMM boxing is on a whole other level, even at age 36.

                    JMM lost to Chris ***** John and went life and death with fat, part-time fighter Juan Diaz.

                    Rios is just mini-Margarito but he beats JMM easy.
