Hahaha @ Cliff Rold - You're A Joke

[Outwest Exp 355]

Rios is already fading out quicker than HBO can build him up. At times I actually thought Rios, who I have never said a good word about, looked really good at times. He showed more head movement. His punches looked crisp. But he faded as I thought he would. Hes gotten hit too much. Plus blowing up in weight between fights hurts him as well.

How can he be way off with his Rios-Broner breakdown, let alone be 'wrong', if the fight never happened?

I was wondering the same.

If Broner beat Rios, it wouldn't shock me. Given their promotional ties, by the time it could happen I likely would pick Broner easy. The most likely scenario is Rios is washed up years before Broner based on their styles and training habits. That said, Broner gets hit and he's never seen anything as relentless as Rios with the sort of size and power Rios has. It would, IMO, still be a hell of a fight. We're not going to see it when both are near peak so this is all an exercise in nada.

Yes. Arum wishes he could have cashed him out vs Pacquiao. Might still get a chance next year, who knows? But he is a B level boxer that is not in the top 5 at JWW. Alvarado is a better all around boxer than Rios is.

I think Arturo Gatti beats Ray Leonard...it is called properly breaking down a hypothetical fight...using intelligence and common sense....you know, the thing he gets paid to do? Haha.

All you've done is given your own biased opinion and somehow concluded it is fact, despite the event never happening.

You're claiming a fantasy 'W' based on well...a fantasy.

I actually agree with quite a lot of his points especially Prescott is as good as anybody Broners fought. In fact I'd argue he is better!

The McCloskey fight was a gift, he was clearly struggling to make 135 (any wonder? hes big even at 140) when he fought Mitchell & tbf Mitchell fought exceptionally well that night.

He gave Vasquez (the guy Broner seems petrified of) a real tough fight and had him on the deck, he was beating the snot out of Alvarado before he gassed, he gave Abril the toughest fight of his career (I did have Abril edging)
He destroyed Khan.

Prescott is a solid fighter & I have no doubt he would literally bury Rees, Litzau, Escobedo, DeMarco.

If Prescott fought Broners resume he would be undefeated & certainly wouldn't be outboxed by little DeLeon & Quintero.

I wonder how relentless Rios would be after being a victim to the "best body attack in boxing" (from your boy Bread) and getting absolutely crushed on the inside. Rios is not a one punch KO artist by any stretch of the imagination. The fight would be a complete mismatch. The fact you refuse to confidently say Broner beats him now, only down the road after Rios is washed up (sorry to break it to you, he's already there) and that you think it would be a "hell of a fight" tells me all I need to know about your ability to break down fights. Good luck. This is the last time I address you. I have made my point. Take care.

This is like the third time you said you were done. Are you sure now?

Biased? Broner does not pay my bills. I explained exactly how and why he beats down Rios. You are the perfect example of someone you converse with and end up losing no matter what. Have a good night.

I don't agree with a lot of what Cliff says but I'm not gonna start a thread and cry for 4 pages thus far and keeping melting down.

Who is hanging on every word now? Glad you can count. Good job. You got smacked around worse in this thread than some of the moronic posters on here. Too bad you do not have a corner to rescue you.
