Comments Thread For: Brandon Rios Motivated To Secure Title Shot at Welterweight

[JuniorTorres720]

I like Rios but from his training videos he hasn't changed much in his style. Still seems flat-footed, come forward type of fighter which is good against certain opponents but when you're talking about the Thurman's, Spence's and such it's hard to see him having an actual shot at defeating them. I wish him all the best! He seems like a cool guy.

''Brandon Rios: 'I'm ready to get back to the top' ''

''get back'' ?!?!?!? when was he ever even in the middle ?!?!?

he WAS a fun guy to watch but now......a punching bag with extremities. no trainer can fix him.

This made me LOL. And you are not wrong.

I've always been a big Rios fan

wish him nothing but the best in his comeback, No way he could compete against the top dogs in WW but if matched properly with the likes of Ortiz, Matthysse, Kamagai, Josesito Lopez, R Guererro the fights could be entertaining and give the winner a possibility of 1 last good payday

Looking forward to his fight

a few ways of looking at come backing fighters...

1) theyre broke AF and have no other skill.
2) ego is out of control. think they can do now what they couldnt do in their prime.
3) might have other employment options but none that will get them 100k+ in 30 mins or less. doesnt really gaf about winning a title.

#3 is reasonable.

Yea I like Rios, he (Bradley excluded) always delivers on your hard earned dollars, which is just a cable bill.

Make a few more dollars Brandon then live the good life...

Brandon gave us some great fights at lightweight and was a good, fan friendly fighter at 140 lbs.
If he can't make that weight anymore it's probably best for his health if he retires.

not hating but he looks sickly.
