Rios was a top amateur and US Olympic alternate, he's not that inept anyway. RJJ says "This Rios is a hell of an inside fighter"

People are either overrating Rios or underrating Khan
Rios is the favorite, but I can't imagine him sparking Khan out... I see this more as a closer, and slightly more in favor of the puncher version of Khan-Maidana (only Maidana hits harder than Rios)

Who has Rios fought that is comparable to Khan?
Khan shutout Maidana for 9 rounds, but Rios would walk through him?
Alvarado did a poor rendition of Khan's lateral movement and combinations style for the final rounds of the rematch and Rios had absolutely no answer. As long as Khan didn't just let Rios pound him to the body like he did against Peterson, he should win round after round en route to a decision.
Julio Diaz is faster than Rios and can actually counter punch from a distance (when's the last time Rios landed a counter punch from a distance?).
