I recognize there are some differences between Bam Bam and the Baby Bull.
But the reason I call Rios "Diaz 2.0" is because I feel his style will make him burn out very quickly, as Diaz did. You can't consistently go to war in every fight. And I don't know if Rios' chin is Tua-esque.
Those types of fighters are exciting to watch, and they make for great entertainment. But Mayweather has a point when he says that the reason he is still performing at a high level after all those rounds is because he never took punishment. Ditto Hopkins.
Bam Bam, I love you. But you can slip a punch or take a half-step back every now and then.
