Translation: My chin is not as strong as Rios.

Look. What Rios has going for him is a strong chin and very good power. That's what Rio does. Test your chin vs his chin. At higher weight he is a KO waiting to happen.

Good for him. Rocky is nobodies doormat but I don't think he could beat Rios. It might even be a career changing type of brutal fight for him. This is better-- we can have Latino champs @ 135 and a Latino champ @ 130. .

Rios is too big to began with.never the less nobody can't beat him in his own division.

I like Rocky but no Rios right now he needs to stay at 130 and fight the top guys their. Rios is the top dude at 135 Rios should be fighting John John Molina is the best fight that can be made for the undercard right now.

Would be dumb to take on Rios in his first fight at 135 after a long layoff.

Told ya, Rocky was not fighting Rios!!

So who's the frontrunner(s) now?

The fight will be against Molina Jr.!
