Rios Is Punch Drunk! If He Could Make '40,Why Not Say So Before Provo Made This Fight
Provo was clear, after he destroyed Alvarado who beat Rios, he wanted to defend his title at '140. Rios & Co were pounding the tables Rios had to fight at 147, so Provo goes and makes a fight at 140. If Rios could make 140, then why didn't he say so when he had the opportunity to land a fight with Provo???? So you wait until Provo makes another fight at 140 instead, now you chase the media down to trash the fight and tell the world you have no problem making 140! Tells me Rios, you didn't really want the Provo fight to come together because you know Provo is a monster just as you described, and this is nothing more than your weak attempt at your own image control. Thank your lucky stars that Provo didn't sign to fight you. Your deer in the headlights style as you showed against Pacquiao would get you killed with Provo. Provo have Bradley the beating of his life at 147, knocked out the guy who beat you in his own backyard; he deserves the right to choose who he chose. He called out Marquez and he wouldn't take the bait. Pacquiao & Bradley came together. Rios wouldn't step up to fight at 140, he now says he can make weight to, and Danny Garcia hasn't been to anxious to fight Provo, so there you have it. Rios needs to go beat someone credible, which he STILL hasn't done. Not sure the love affair with Rios still; his ONLY claim to fame was beating a b-level fighter who came back and beat him in a rematch, who was later stopped in 8 by Provo. I'd say Rios, like Khan, are far from deserving title shots until they beat one of TODAYS best.
