Acosta was nothing but a journeyman who hadn't beat anybody noteworthy except Antillion, another guy that was overrated as you get and at the very tail end of his career when Bum Bum beat him.
Yeah a few fighters get knocked out early in their careers and bounce back but you could see from day one Manny Pacquaio had a lot going for him and more so than Acosta and a some bum ass slugger who made a living from being a sparring partner to 3rd rate fighters in Antillion.
The reality is Rios hasn't beaten anybody his best win is a guy who went life and death with C rate Herrera & was getting hammered by Prescott until he punched himself out.
He faced one guy above C level and he lost every round in the process.
There is probably 10 guys I'd have no problem with picking over him and another 10 I feel would be 50/50
He wouldn't even beat most of the top 10 at 135.
He doesn't beat Broner or Vasquez, Abril, he wouldn't even beat Burns.
The ony time Broner has fought a pressure fighter with real power, Ponce de Leon, he looked terrible and some people thought he lost, IMO Rios would do a Ponce De Leon on Broner, but the only difference will be that Rios will finish the job.
you hate rios so same **** with you homie, if you say rios lost to abril, , lol, broner got bullied by a 4 foot midget, lol, made fun of by guerrero (guerrero made broner lose his dignity by punking him out), de leon and quintero beat the hell outta broner on television

Lets just hope you really think that if these two ever fight. I'd love to take all your points. lol
i like both fighters, but IMO Abril beat Rios with a philly Shell style and Rios has no answers...I've noticed Rios has developed his right hand more since, as he had no answers without the left hook (is rios left handed??)
Broner is a smarter, bigger, more powerful fighter than Abril, he's roll the left hooks and counter...be a good fight to watch (boxer vs. brawler is always a beauty) but I'd give it to Broner by UD, maybe even late KO if he carries a good combo one (Rios has looked like he's ready to go before but the opponent just couldn't keep the intensity)
