      It really depends how well those two follow their plan without letting Rios get free punches. I wouldn't be surprised to see Khan stop Rios or even win a wide decision.

        If I was making a bet I'd pick Rios to lose against Garcia, JMM. I'd give a slight edge to Lucas and If Peterson and Khan decided to box all fight they'd also get a slight edge. But if anyone of those 5 decided they wanted to go to war I can see all of them losing.

        I like Rios and I know he doesn't have elite skill but the guys has maybe the biggest heart among active boxers so I wouldn't count him out against anyone because hell just keep coming forward trying to break your will down. Bam Bam knows his skills aren't there but he's the type of fighter that actually enjoys fighting and probably willing to die in the ring so Ill give him a chance against anyone .

          rios. big heart. crowd pleaser. but any boxer would box his ears off. abril did it. alvarado did it in their 2nd fight.

          jmm would annihilate rios. rios has a chance against garcia though. i pick rios to beat lamont if they were ever to fight.

          a fight fan's dream...rios vs provodnikov!!!!!

            People seem to forget Rios can box. In no way am I implying that hes a Pernell Whitaker but coming up Rios did show a good work ethic following a strong jab (a jab that hes wobbled fighters with) but began to abandon boxing in order to please fans and Bob Arum. But with that said, Rios beats Khan and Peterson, loses to Juan Manuel Marquez & Matthysse and fights a tooth and nail fight against Garcia. The reason I give rios a chance against Garcia is with both eyes swollen Rios will keep coming and wont give up the body attack. Other than that if I had to bet Id take Garcia unless the odds were good.

                The last 3 have their way with Rios, easily.

                    I'd favor them over Rios but he would make them fight

                      Rios isn't half as good as Matthysse.

                      Rios loses to all top 140'lbers
