Not even a 'troll' thread... anyone disagree? What does Rios bring that Maidana doesn't?

Originally posted by Warrios View Posthe's a good fighter, but no. when Maidana boxes he kinda looks awkward and he telegraphs too much. Rios is much more natural in his fighting style, and people forget he's a great inside fighter. I also think Rios has the better arsenal, two handed fighter. Maidana relies heavily on his overhand right, his left is non existent. But I see what ts is doing.
In terms of telegraphing they're both not exactly hard to read but Maidana can throw a good left hook when he remembers and also has a pretty sweet and fairly short and crisp right cross when he decides to compose himself instead of loading up. Bam bam just walks in winging shots with no jabs. He has a stiff jab buuut he forgets it exists. I feel the only advantage Rios does have is his gas tank or ability to seem hes not tired.
Its weird because theyre kind of opposites in the way Maidana tends to fight too reserved and within himself at times and bam bam fighting outside of his means and not taking the time to sometimes just use that heavy jab he has or make a simple adjustment. He's like a Call of Duty player who will run at the same sniper, same route, and get gunned down the same way and would make his life so much easier just cooking a grenade and coming in from the side.
Both are gatekeepers with Maidana having a slight edge in terms of people he could reasonably upset.
