      Wait what? He ain't Brandon Rios, but he's hardly a feather-fist. Katsidis can crack for sure. At least, he can with the left. His right is awful.

        If Guerrero can box and stay away from the inside game, he'll pick Rios to pieces. If he tries to slug it out with plaster master jr, he'll be in trouble.

        Skill for skill, he should demolish Rios

          I would not bet a cent on this fight.

          Robert is very good, but Rios is strong like a bull, even when weight drained and zombified.


          Should be an awesome fight.

              They need to make this fight

              I wanted to see this fight at 135 but now it can happen at 140. I have Guerrero by late stoppage. Guerrero is to skilled and is bigger then Rios. Rios won't have the size advantage, but I do think he has more power. Guerrero looked like a welterweight against katsidis. It's to bad we didn't get to see him fight maidana because that would've told us a lot but I favored Guerrero in that fight. I really hope they make this fight. There are a lot of good fights for both of them @140. IMO though guerrero would give anyone trouble at 140 or 147. I thought he was the toughest fight for Marquez at lw.

                Rob uses his reach & size advantage to box outside, he does have a tendancy to let boxers on the inside at times but think he's good enough to get through what Rios dishes out @ 140lb's.

                  Guerrero.

                  He'd out box him.


                  I don't see all the hype around Rios. He's sort of like Katsidis. If you can box, you have a good chance of beating them.

                    Acosta could box.

                      He cant even throw a proper punch. Katsidis is a punching bag. Its really a shame he keeps getting big fights. For me he's the new Malignaggi, probably worse.

                      Acosta took him where he hadnt been. Thats when I decided that Rios is the real deal. He's bound to meet his match moving up in weight but I dont think Robert is the guy. Guerrero is definitely all about machismo. He'll give in to the war Rios makes which will lead to his demise. I would bet on Rios.
