    I've always liked Rios, ever since he walked through nut shots with no complaining & made Peterson quit. Roach is a douche himself & likes to talk $h!t. I don't feel bad for him 1 bit. Rios shoulda took it just because Roach is sick? Disrespect answered with disrespect is what he got.
    no doubt...he trucked Peterson that night...I never heard too much about Bam before that night...but since then dude has stayed on my radar....and hell yea, Roach is always throwing shots and sneak dissing.....but what really took the cake was how Roach played the VICTIM role after he got his own medicine and how 24/7 gave it a some more shine....oh man!!!

        I lost respect for Rios after the Roach incident. It was pointless and unnecassary.

        But he apologised. Roach accepted. And clearly he never had bad intentions towards such an illness (his daughter is called Laila in tribute to Ali).

        He doesn't always come across as so, but he's a good guy.

          I like him as a fighter.

          A guy's out of the ring involvements are none of my business.

            i dont believe rios is a bad seed. he's clearly lacked guidance.

            it seems that he's trying to do things better these days. doing an impersonation of freddie roach isn't exactly a classy move, but doing it in front of a camera was downright idiotic.

            hopefully he's grown up some.

            whatever the case, rios has the one of the most likable fighting temperaments in the game today. he's high on the list of fighters who i cant wait to see fight again.

              Exactly how I feel. Not one of us can really say we haven't made derogatory comments towards mental or physicall illnesses. Rios is just an immature kid who's an idiot for letting HBO film him doing it.

              I think he genuinely felt bad and he's just rough around the edges....Robert Garcia has already had a positive influence on him and hopefully in time that influence will grow even stronger.

              Rios has grown on me, I'm definitely a fan of the kid now...I also think he's really good. He's more skilled than he gets credit for, he's actually crafty on the inside where many prototypical Mexican brawlers aren't.
