    They all can, definitely, but do you think any of those three make an easy night's work of Rios? I can't picture any of them having an easy night with him.

      peterson is an odd case. the man looked superhuman strong against khan. maybe too strong for rios style. but PEDerson was using drugs then. who knows what he's really got


      the peterson that lost to bradley would lose to rios IMO.

        Boxing skills is not everything.Broner who fans say has p4p skills
        looked confused against smaller,slower ponce.Alot of fans also thought
        he lost that fight.Give bam bam sum credit putoHe may not
        have fast hands or slick style.But he does have a big heart and
        solid chin.

          that chin is too strong for anybody to just blow him out of the water


          abril had a pretty easy night with him, all things considered. it's criminal how little that guy is talked about.

            people are giving him credit for that. but those same people believe he was given the abril decision because his strengths couldn't overcome solid skills.

              it could be argued that abril didn't have a tough night at all until the judges scores were announced.

                I thought the question was who has an easy night of him, I only named Lucas because I could see catching him early and putting him away. Peterson and Garcia can beat him, but I don't think those are easy for them to win. No way.

                  he could of been drained and not motivated for the fight.

                    He deserves more credit for handling Rios the way he did. That fight should not be used only as a way to discredit Rios, it should be used to give Abril more focus and appreciation.

                      what do you mean by easy nights work? do you mean they beat him in ever aspect of the game and make him look foolish? yes. do they have to fight hard to do this? yes...
