Khan v Rios

[HeroBando]

Those that are choosing rios don't you think Khan as already beaten fighters better than rios? Madaina, malinaggi, zab are all better than and beat rios IMO

The only similar fight there is Maidana. That was a really tough fight for Khan, he barely pulled through. Since then he's been blasted by Garcia, and barely made it out vs Julio Diaz, so he's probably even more vulnerable. Even that midget Molina was hitting him pretty good.

I think Rios wins by KO about round 7 or 8. I think Khan would win most of the rounds but Rios is relentless and puts lots of pressure on Khan by going after him round after round throwing bombs. Khan showed in past fights that he does not like that kind of pressure or handle it well.Eventually Khan will make mistakes and Rios will land some big shots to Khan's jaw.

I admit I have an agenda here. But who wins Khan or Brandon Rios fighting today at Welter?

Neither has fought at Welter Khans best wins are over Kotelnick, Madaina, Judah and a shot to **** Barrerra.

Rios' best wins are against John Murray, Alvarado and Richard Abril (a loss in reality)

Speed =khan
Chin =rios
Punching power = rios
Skill =khan
Intelligence = Rios (both are exceptionally ****** in the ring in fact khans ******ity makes his chin appear worse than it is)
Adaptability= khan
Experience= khan
Fitness and stamina = Khan


If I were to choose I'd say khan by mid to late stoppage, however this does not mean Floyd should be fighting Khan who is such a step back fighting Alvarez its unimaginable. By no way I hell should PAC be fighting Rios even coming of a loss.

Rios =c+
Khan =B-

the only way khan could win is by decision...anything else is a knockout loss for him.

best bet is rios knocking him out. rios will eat everything that khan throws at him while pressuring khan non-stop and eventually khan's chin will give up.

Rios by lethal uppercut

Khan, easily...

People will just say he loses against everyone

When has he ever had an easy time against an iron chinned puncher who doesn't stop coming? Maybe he can stay away for 12, doubtful off his last showing.

Suppose it depended on how 'brave' he wanted to be... if he actually boxes and moves its an easy fight...

Suppose Khan gets too eager to please in there and wants fireworks bless him.

I don't see Rios troubling him too much though
