    How many fights does Rios have left?

    I don't think his fighting style is healthy, especially in the 140lb division where he will be up against fighters who can hit hard. The Man gets hit with too many clean shots I think if he's placed in the ring with Matthysse his career will start to decline.

      he'll have a short career, just like many fighters of his type.

        As long as he doesn't fight the boxer mover type then am sure he can be at the top for another 5-6 fights, He should just keep fighting the face first zero ring intelligence fighters, that way he can prolong his career.

            Way to put some perspective on it. You're an objective, non-cry baby boxing fan I can tell.

            Idiot...

            Anyway, back to reality.. .If he keeps fighting the way he does, he might be shot by age 31. But, that's the career he chose, too late for him to change now.

                  When you have Robert Garcia it makes a world of a difference and i believe not too many.I was trying to tell a poster that last night, then they brought up Margarito.I had to laugh, 3 fights later he retired.It was a hardcore fight not many guys can dish out.Rios is by far a non complete fighter but allot of fun to watch.I referred to him as a monster for taking those shots any other boxer wouldve quit on.FOTY in my opinion.

                    Rios is Margarito 2.0 not sure if he'll be as successful though.
