    Rios's chin is cracked.

    I hate to say it, but I think Rios's chin has cracked. Not too surprising, considering all the punches he's taken throughout his career.

    Rios needs to retire. I really hope he got paid well and has invested money wisely.

      He's simply past it either by years of abuse on his body or some new terrible training regime. Round 1, first few punches he threw the guy was weak as sht. He used to be a very strong guy, if you're that weak relative to an opponent he's going to hurt you when he lays his hands on you.

      So not cracked chin, just bad conditioning.

        His chin has been cracked for several years now, i said before the fight this was a horrible horrible mismatch, Rios has been badly slurring his speech for years....

          it happens to them all.. after years of taking punishment, it's bound to crack.

            kinda similar to the dorticos-gassiev fight, where dorticos took gassiev's power really well for almost the entire fight until the end. rios was taking danny's power good for a while until that right hand

              Well, when your main strategy is to block punches with your face eventually it WILL crack.

                His chin may still be good. He ran right into a perfectly thrown bomb on the button that might have dropped a lot of welterweights. Before he was KOed he took Garcia's other hard punches well.

                  I don't think that was a bomb.

                    Purse was about $350K and Danny’s was about $650K you think?
