Khan vs Maidana - Rios vs Acosta

[RoyalFlush]

whatever happened to acosta in that fight was beyond me, he was looking good in the early rounds.

Brandon "Bam Bam" Rios is what happened to him.

[Rome-By-Ko]

Watch the fight again Rome homie. He used his feet well while stalking. The ring was big, Acosta is a excellent mover, and the only thing wrong with Rios' footwork was that he slid straight forward and not at a angle(coming in behind a jab would've helped this)and forward.

Hey (lol) that's why I'm taking Rios,but Khan is a bad boy too..It's not gonna be easy bro,and Khan has power we seen Acosta wobble Rio's..But I stick with my pick for now,it would be Rio's

[koolttt]

I have to agree with some of you guys. Acosta was boxing really well going backwards, Rios relentless pressure just got to him and wore him down.

I say it depends on if Rios brings his power up with him..

Acosta never recovered from the first knockdown. He said pretty much that in the post fight interview.

If Rios brings his power up with him he beats Khan,Rios is not like Maidana he would apply smart pressure and throw straighter punches..But Khan is very slick and Rios does not have great footwork,if Khan keeps him on the outside he beats Rios..I'd pick Rios if they fought tomorrow but by the time these two fighters are standing in each others way I may have change my mind..

rios' pressure isn't smart.

khan isn't slick.

this would be a great fight tho.

Khan can't fight for **** in the pocket and Acosta was pretty good there last night.

agreed.

khan's cardio might be better tho.
