    Will Rios dare to mock Roach, again?

    How will Khan react to that?

    I'm sure this will get personal FAST.

        This.

        Bradley joined Top Rank so that he could hide behind Bob Arum when ducking Amir.

            i've only seen about one minute of a round of one of rios' fights, and im pretty confident amir destroys him, stopping him somewhere between the 7-10 rds

              Assuming Rios gets his fat ass in the gym and comes in healthy unlike the fight against Murry, he knocks Khan out.

              Khan had a hard time with Maidana..... a guy who didn't really hurt a retired Morales. Rios power is in a different level and so is his skill when he isn't dehydrated.

              It would be way to risky a fight for Khan. He is the favorite but his chin isn't exactly stout and he does get hit. Personally I think Freddie just called Rios out because he knos Khan is GBP and the chance of this happening is slim to none.

                also rios, to me, has never given an honest apology about making fun of roach's disease, that was a low blow but it told me alot about rios's chracter
                I know some people are gonna be pissed at me for this but I feel that once Roach opens his mouth and talks ****, (thinking hes off limits because of his disease) hes fair game.

                  Maidana is better than Rios.

                  Rios is a brawler, Maidana actually has some skills.

                  Heck even Alexanders trainer said there is method to his madness, and Maidana gave Kotelnik a damn good fight.

                  Rios gets hit too much. He has been by easily in every fight.

                  Khan would hit him so damn much. Rios hasn't faced anyone on Khans level where as you can say that for Khan.

                  Rios has not got the footwork, speed and defines to not get KO'd.

                    Yes, Brandon lacks skill but Khan lacks heart and has no chin!

                    War Bam Bam!

                    Get it done!
                    Khan lacks heart? Give me one example of Khan ever showing a lack of heart inside a boxing ring?

                      Khan would box Rios's ears off, Rios is a slow come forward plodder I would like the fight because Khan gets to take the 0 of a young fighter but in all honesty it would end up a one sided affair and we all know Bob is not going to let GBP rising star take the 0 of either Rios or Bradley.
