    Can anyone at 147 KO Rios?

    Rios is a limited, C level fighter, but not many can take a beating like him. The guy has got unreal punch resistance.

    So do we think anyone at 147 can KO/stop him? I think Thurman might be able to stop him on his feet, but I'm not sure, it's probably more likely he'd get battered for 12 rounds.

      Tim Bradley can. He's a huge puncher.

          Was going to nominate Bailey too.
          Possibly Maidana & Marquez (bad style match up)

            I think Thurman could definitely TKO him but Garcia will never throw in the towel so the ref would have to step in. I don't think anyone else can though.

              Nope. That man has an iron jaw.

                I'd say Marquez without a doubt, maybe Thurman...maybe.

                  Bailey's a good shout, I don't think Marquez would though.

                  Maidana definitely wouldn't. Rios vs Maidana would be a competitive, 50-50 fight. Maidana's not as limited as Rios, but he can't take a beating like Rios can, he's not as resilient. He would go toe to toe, get dropped once or twice and maybe win a close decision.

                    Bailey hits like a mule but I don't see him stopping Rios. He's about to be 40 years old and isn't active enough imo. What good fighters has he actually stopped/beaten? Mike Jones? Is he even that good?
