I don't see him being shot at all, so I think there's some great fights left in him. He's not elite, that's why he lost to Pac and will lose to someone like JMM.
Saying that, Rios is a monster in the ring and very exciting to watch. I think he makes some very compelling fights if he comes in shape.Comment

He has been slurring his words for awhile now, he should retire.Comment

Rios still has some left in him, he's a b level slugger and if the fights get made, he can still have some big match ups against Ruslan and probs Mike III, as well as maybe a Bradley match up? and if GBP get sorted, Rios v Matthysse/Garcia/Thurman.Comment

i think he would still probably beat a guy who fights scared like floyd but anyone with firepower would hurt him badlyComment

Yes Rios throws a ton of punches but don't act like Provodnikov is a slouch in that department. I'll give you the Rios' face will probably hold up better as well but when were the several times Ruslan has been stunned? They both take punches exceptionally well.
I think this fight is 50-50. Like the first Alvarado fight, I think it comes down to who lands the punch/flurry to change to things. But I think Provodnikov will be more durable than Alvarado wasComment

Yeah... He is a straight up pressure fighter and even really great ones like Frazier, Tyson hatton, Pryor, have relatively short periods of being peak, usually around 5 years as opposed to guys like Floyd, pernell, hearns, calzaghe, that can past a lot longer..
Plus Rios uses physicality to breakdown opponents and I think at 135-140 he could do that but vs true welters he is going to have a hard timeComment

lol of course he has.Comment

A guy who ******s from getting hit in the face doesn't have a peakComment
