Floyd vs Rios would be closer

[Sheppirino]

It wouldn't have been closer at all. Floyd would win in a shutout just like Manny did. Rios just wouldn't have been as damaged.

Rios can walk though punches and Manny hits harder than Floyd so he'd walk through his shots too. Rios is all about instead fighting and Floyd likes to take rounds off by leaning on the ropes. That's where I see rios winning a few rounds.

Again before you tards have an aneurism Floyd would beat rios. I just think rios would take at least 2 rounds off him probably 3.

Manny overwhelmed Rios with combinations and landing allot on his gloves, and grazing shots that partially landed. Manny throws whether your open or not. Now with Floyd, if your covered up, he will use feints to open you up before he throws his shots. He wont waste shots on your gloves like Manny does. Floyd will use his touch-j to fondle Rios' gloves, then Rios would try to push Floyd's gloves away, and open his guard in the process. Then Floyd would wack him. Or he would rub Rios scalp. When Rios pushes his gloves away, Floyd wacks him. Those types of tricks. Manny uses a touch-j but he beat rios on activity and punch output. Floyd would walk him down unlike Manny, but Floyd would throw less, and be more patient, and only let his hands go when he sees opening, unlike Manny. Floyd would probobaly dominate Rios more than he did Canelo, as much as Pac did Rios, but probably more masterful than Pac did Rios. And get hit a little less. But Rios is too small to be a brawler, and go against Floyd. Ortiz is the biggest brawler out there, and even he got walked down. A little lw like Rios, I dunno. I think he would get beat up.

[MurkaMan]

just wanna throw it in there that canelo is a f0cken bum with fans, thats all he isn really.....

No he isnt. He's unproven but he has allot of speed, defense, and veteran tactics. Probably beats most of the great fighters at or around his weight class. And few fighters use veteran tactics. Martinez is my favorite and been fighting longer than Canelo and he doesnt even know some of the things Canelo does. Things that would have saved him against Chavez.

and rios is whole lot better than balodomir too for sure

Floyd seemed to have hurt his hand against Baldo. He cut him in the first round, then when he started to run and jab, that was probably the first and last time Floyd has EVER fought like that. He ran from Ghost, but he didnt run and jab like that. As if he had no other punches in his arsenal. And also Floyd has improved allot since then, and has gotten waaay bigger and stronger. Rios is too small for Floyd. If Floyd can walk down Canelo's big azz, Rios little bitty behind, being a BRAWLER, and being SMALL? I would be mad if that fight was made. I'd rather see Khan or Danny than Rios.

Floyd easily beat Baldomir, he had Baldomir's faced marked up in the first round. That was one of Flloyd's easiest fights. Yes I belive Pac looks better against pressure fighters because they suit his style better, but there is NO WAY Rios troubles Floyd. If Canelo and Ghost were beaten easily by him do you really think Rios would be more competitive?

We can argue Pac looks worse against counter punchers.

canelo and gurrero are boxers. we knew they had no chance before the fight started. they tried to outbox floyd obviously with his speed that was ******. rios comes forward and pressures like castillo or like cotto did a couple rounds against mayweather. floyd didn't want any of margarito who's a bigger and better version of rios.

[MurkaMan]

rios stops floyd late. too must pressure. rios doesn't just stand there like canelo and idiot guerrero did. ortiz was giving it to floyd and ortiz is terrible. rios would get hit a lot but he doesn't care about single shots. its combos that keep him at bay.

Canelo and Ortiz are much bigger and stronger than Rios. Rios is a small dude with no power, and Floyd walked Canelo and Ortiz down as if he were stronger. Floyd manipulates his opponents into being gun shy, so they throw one or two shots. And he can move his entire body, roll his entire upper body, leap on his feet, all in the amount of time it takes you to throw a very fast shot. He moves like a cartoon character or a hologram. So he has the option of avoiding, or countering. I honestly think Floyd would overpower Rios and wrestle with him. He walked Canelo down but he never tried to wrestle because he's too small. But he's so much bigger than Rios. You have no idea how mad I would be if Floyd EVER fought him. Yall should be talking about Prov if we're going to talk about Rios. Rios has no power and his small. I think Prov is bigger, and has way more power.

People riding Floyd's nuts are acting like I said he'd lose. All I said was Floyd would lose probably 2-3 rounds against rios.

[Shad0wB0xer]

No it wouldn't. Rios gets beat by any one with movement that uses angles.

[gmc_rfc_06]

It would be 120-108.

Rios has nothing. If you don't brawl, he is useless.

[mikinoki]

Floyd winning every round no problem.
