    Could Rios pull a Mattheyesse on Tim Bradley

    I really think Rios is underestimating Bradley's POP..................Could Bradley drop rios and make him quit?

      Nah. Highly, highly doubt it. You could shoot Rios in the face with a 12 gauge and he'd still keep coming forward.

          Nah. Bradley is good on the inside and can box, Rios can't box outside but he is good inside.


          If bradley stays smart he can make it easy. I hope he doesn't get dragged into a brawl.


          Rios was interesting in Alvarado 3; he was much better defensive wise; granted Mike was on crack. Slipping, picking his shots, lateral movement much better.

            No , Bradley is a class fighter way too much ability for Rios , if Tim boxes it will be a shutout .

                Bradley himself said he can't knock Rios out. There is nothing for Rios to underestimate because Bradley is not a hard puncher and he doesn't hit hard enough to drop Rios. Rios is a very game fighter and nothing in his history indicates that he would ever quit. Bradley will probably outbox Rios and win the fight but he won't knock Rios down or make him quit.

                  No cause the problem with Lucas was that he made a conscious decision not to get up, he could have but decided his health was more important. Rios wont care about his health in their, he will get up. That is the difference IMO.

                  So can Bradley surprise Rios with his pop, yeah of COURSE! but will we see an quitting type of stoppage from Rios I highly highly doubt it.

                    Nothing is guaranteed in boxing but I wouldn't put money on Bradley making Rios quit. He's still probably going to win but by wide decision imo
