    Was Danny G Rios the best ko of 2018 so far only? (2months in)

    Raymond Beltran finally won a world strap after getting robbed, to losing and testing positive he finally made it!

    If he can humble himself, a huge if, then I think he can eventually win a legit belt. He needs to get more serious with a trainer, game plans & getting out of his comfort zone + to kick his dad outta his camp. If he does one or more of those things he'll have more success, if he does all of them + some other sh^t I think he'll win a belt eventually. Kid has some skills, but lacks a roadmap.

      He's not really working with a lot of skills. Given what he has, he could maximize his potential at middleweight. Based on what I saw, he needs to move down.

        He can make some things happen especially at 160 lbs, he needs a better corner that would tell him things like they are and to tell him what exactly is it that he needs to work on.

        Chavez on the other hand was a lazy person who didn't really care about his career. I don't think Eubank is lazy at all, he just needs to work snarter not just harder.

          Chavez Jr. is/was better but more undisciplined. Eubank Jr. truly sucks even though he's always in great shape.

            Eubank Jr. would be lucky to end up like Chavez Jr.

              Chavez Jr is lacking what Eubank Jr has in abundance: Work ethic.

              So yes, Eubank will bounce back. It's only a matter of time, he will pick up a belt again.

                Jr. and Sr. have something unhealthy going on in their relationship and its time for jr. to adress those issues, make changes. He probably has been told since beeing a kid that he is the best thing since sliced bread. Reality is, atm he wont win vs. a really good fighter. And it was obvious he hasnt the punching power as an equalizer for his lack his skill/gameplan. I thought he has improved since Saunders, but he only looked better cause of the opposition. Now that he stepped up, totally the same. Instead of adjusting a gameplan, he got desperate. A mixture of heart and desperation. Heart is good, beeing desperate in the ring is not.

                ps. Chavez jr. at least beat Andy Lee :-)

                  I really think he needs to move back down, he had a great chin but he doesn’t really have a boxing brain. At 168 he would be competing against bigger guys, it’s ok if those bigger guys aren’t good quality but the moment he gets better than normal quality he would lose again. He could not move or bully Groves last week and this was a Groves that has a lot more mileage on him. I would have said drop his dad and all of that but after the post fight press conference that I saw last week I think he needs his dads truth in his camp. One last thing, I definitely believe he underestimate Groves going into that fight.

                    I think Eubank will go on to fight good fights and I don't think his loss was that bad. He is a better, more determined and more dedicated boxer than Chavez Jr. The KO of Rios was probably the best I have seen this year.
