Comments Thread For: Sam Eggington vs. Brandon Rios in Play For Joshua-Povetkin

[BigZ44]

Rios must be getting paid GOOD money to go to the UK on a couple weeks notice for a fight at 154

They think bam bam gonna be an easy one. If the bam bam that showed up for swift shoes up he can ko eggington. Good fight.

Fun fight but eggington will walk through him and stop him within 6. Rios doesn't punch hard enough to discourage him, especially at 154.

rios isn't going to have a single brain cell left by the time he stops boxing. that guy was dumb as hell to begin with. last time i checked he was still managed by his wife! she wants him to do this! holy **** she must hate the guy.


when a dude with an iron chin starts getting his lights put out it is time to hang up the gloves, the damage has been done.

That ain't a bad fight. And seems competitive & winnable for either guy.

This is why Hearn is at where he's at in the game. This is a middle of the main card fight, but its evenly matched. Thats what mfing fans wanna see. Fun ass fights. Fans don't wanna see the red corner win fights all night long. F#cking boxing promoters are so f#cking dumb or too tight in their matchmaking while overvaluing the 0 on a promising fighters record over repeat customers coming to see their shows well into the future. Its not THAT a complicated thing from a promoter to give people what they want AND make money long term in this sport.

When did Rios get his lights put out? He got up from the Garcia knockdown but was still hurt enough to stop it therefore it was a TKO not a cold knock out like Pacquiao got when he fought Marquez of Williams did when he fought Martinez. I agree its a rough fight for him to take but Malignaggi hung in with Eggington and even hurt him so I think Rios has a chance

[Blueboy3]

If Paulie with a 16% ko ratio can hurt Eggington, I'm pretty sure Brandons going to get the ko.

[steeve steel]

Another irrelevant fight served by Hearn to British boxing fans who will eat up just about anything... Incredible.

Brandon will win this fight but needs to retire!

His wife has done a great job of taking care of his finances unlike other dudes who got taken to the cleaners by their ex wives!

Hearn doesn't pay minimum wage. Two tickets and a cheap room is his scale. Hearn sweet talks them, you know. Fight my guy cheap and IF you win, I'll consider paying you better next time.
