    Rios is underrated in here just because he is a come forward fighter with not much boxing skills.

    He has already beat Anthony and im pretty sure he will beat Lamont.

    Too bad that's he's with Arum. Would have love if he is with Haymon so he has more pool of opponents.

    He will test the mental capacity of fighters with his style. Fighters like Judah and Berto will wilt from his barrage.

      Rios' best win is Mike Alvarado, whose best win is Brandon Rios.

      Yes, yes I've said that a few times now here.

      Abril exposed him quite badly. Even then it is quite amazing how someone that limited has done quite well for themselves.

        But for those calling him a bum, well -- the bum has done pretty well for himself. Headlined several HBO cards and has a career record of 33-2-1, with 24 of those wins coming by stoppage. 33 wins in 36 career fights? Gee whiz man that's not too shabby for a bum status punching bag with legs.
        YDKSAB really.. he has 2 losses already.. all posters here are undefeated.. ya dig?

          Rios is garbage

          He got a good hearth and chin, some power, and nothing else

          It's like a heavy bag that punch back

                I think he's #5 at welterweight.


                Pacquiao, Mayweather, and Thurman beat him clearly.

                Bradley and Khan are toss up fights where Rios would have a good chance of winning.
