represents what? the yolo swag culture kids growin up to these days? lol.

Ive got a clear idea of what you are now haha!

What I am? That seems to be really important to you for some reason.

The fact is that Rios does things his way, not in the way you think he should, and he still succeeds anyway.

It must be killing you that people can act in ways that you don't approve of yet still make it to the top.

he sucks bro...i heard all this hype and when i watched him fight it was laughable

The thing is we have only seen two fights from Zhou. One where he showed who he was from the amateurs, and recently, someone who wants to show he can fight aggressively, more like a "pro".

Too early to say he is a hype job like Berto. TR is building his confidence and trying to get him into a championship bout by his 10th fight. So he will have 8 more chances to step it up. As a boxing fan, I am all eyes on him if he can deliver.

well, ive seen the likes of Oscar and Ward and other olylmpic gold medalists with hype make their debuts


they're supposed to showcase their talents against tomato cans...i didnt see anything get showcased when Zou fought

[PAC-BOY]

Rios has a great deal of respect for Manny. Hes not scared of Manny but he knows hes in there with another type of animal! He has a lot of pressure on him. A lot! He has to look real good and be on his A game.

[Weebler I]

wouldn't it be great if they both just punched Zou in the mouth right here?

....................

exactly, if zou is the driving force to solidify boxing mainstream in china, then whats the problem??? let them have their "hero". mo money.

I do agree with this. He's opening up the market and his fights are entertaining. I don't see the problem. Some people get so upset because Shiming is watched by his people.

A leopard does not and cannot change its spots. How quickly you forgot how disrespectful Brandon was to Manny in the Cheato 24/7. Called him p/uto and other ignorant nonsense. Rios gonna get the lion's den come November. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. /sarcasm

I respect them two warriors. win or lose both guys have my support and respect for all the positive things they have given boxing.

floyd on the other hand stays "whinning" all the time.

Rios: It worked for Bradley, it'll work for me too

The issue is, TR is putting this guy out there as a PPV star headlining cards in his debut and second fights. The normal progression is for a guy to fight cans on FNF for a few fights and work his way up to the networks. Shiming has to have a ton of pressure on him all while is learning on the job....they are actually setting him up for failure by pushing him too fast and trying to bank roll him.

Looks more Chinese than Pacquiao! Watch the fans favour him!
