    there was never a chance brooks was gonna fight rios,

    brook wasnt really calling anyone out after that fight he was just naming his favorite fighters thats all- he didnt mean anything by mentioning all those names. hes a fan of rios, just like us.

      Thank you evol. I still cant understand why people think he is going to box circles around everyone. He is not that kind of fighter. He is good at alot of things, but not great at anything. He is not a slickster.

            I guess Rios is the poor mans Amir Khan begging for big fights that he doesn't belong. Rios needs to give Chaves a rematch considering he was losing on the cards and all before he starting crying to get him DQ'ed

              Not a terrible fight and possibly the best fight that could be made for Bradley given the difficulty involved in negotiating other big fights at welterweight right now.

              Would definitely rather see Tim against Porter, but I can't see a Haymon-Arum agreement being worked out there and I think Hearn would insist on having Bradley travel to the UK to fight Brook. Bradley could do it and win (he beat Witter over there, who was a better fighter than Brook is right now, imo), but I don't know if Bradley is super keen on making the trip.

              Bradley-Rios should be entertaining, but Bradley is a cut above Rios. So long as he relies on what he's good at (boxing, not slugging) I think he wins a wide UD. If Bradley slugs, I think he still wins, but in a much more difficult fashion.

                I hate this fight. Bradley needs to be fighting the guys on PBC. If he is going to be limited to just TR fighters then his career is going to end without another big fight.

                Id love to see Rios in with the winner of the fight this weekend and Bradley in with Garcia.

                  I agree here too. Put Rios in with Prov- Lucas winner and Bradley in with Garcia as a double header. Provo- Rios would be off the chain. Intense fire fights the whole fight.

                      This should be a 12-0 fight for Bradley, but then again, that's how Rios fights... He doesn't need to win every round, just need to win one big round where he puts you away for good.

                      I think Rios is better at finishing his opponents than Provodnikov.
