Call me crazy. But Rios-Marquez is still a tough/competitive fight.

    Rios will suffer worse fate than Diaz. Diaz was faster, more technical and a better inside and outside fighter. Their chins are about the same and Rios throws a little harder, but nobody that sloppy beats Marquez. It's gonna be a massacre.

        Crazy like a fox.

        You can't tell how Rios would do based on the Abril fight.

        Abril fights nothing like Marquez.
        Didn't Rios struggle vs 2 boxers already? Acosta (which I understand he beat) and now CLEARLY lost to Abril. JMM would counter him all night and get robbed since he's not Top Rank. Actually he MIGHT get the win so he can fight Pacquiao again if Rios-Pacquiao doesn't sound good enough.

          I think Rios would give JMM some issues but in the end I think JMM beats the breaks off him.

          Rios would be more effective because JMM gives some space and doesn't grapple much but I still think that JMM would make Rios pay for all the mistakes he would make.

          Could be interesting I guess, although would be a tough fight to sell off this performance considering JMM is a boxer and Rios just got soundly out boxed.

            Fck that fight. Rios does not deserve to share the ring with an ATG after the **** that just happened.

              It will be a much more fan friendly fight, but it will end with Rios laying flat on the canvas. Rios' style will play right into Marquez's hands, JMM will look spectacular at the end. I've always believe this and this fight tonight has nothing to do with it. People always use to bring up the Diaz fight, but Juan Diaz has always been a better fighter than Brandon Rios ever will be.

                Marquez destroys him, I've said this before the Abril fight anyway. But Marquez has the propensity to trade punches when its not really necessary so you may see him hurt at times.

                    all 200 mill of my measly points that this isn't the case.

                    Just to make it more interesting, Im betting that Rios doesn't take more than 4 rounds.

                      Stop accepting these horrible decisions!! Refusing to purchase dud/fixed fights is the only way to make promoters take notice. Put "Boycott Bob" as the title to all your posts, join the movement, spread the message.
