      Chico's chin turned into China over "time".

      His chin was very durable at one point. Joshua Clottey couldn't KO him at 147 and Chico boxed most of his career at Jr. Lightweight/Lightweight.

      Chico's problem was his defense. Chico ate too many punches and after awhile his chin simply eroded.

      The same will happen to Rios as time goes by. I think it'll be a fun ride though.

          Rio has a better chin and is short compared to Corrales.

            Corrales had more one-punch power.

            Both are good inside fighters.

              Damn I miss Corrales, I always wonder if after the Clottey fight could Chico had made some noice at 140 lbs. Corrales vs Hatton would have been a barn burner at least while it lasted

                Why are you not paying me the points for Danny Green beating BJ Flores?
