    Should be a war, can see Rios winning without too much trouble though.

    Rios will be twice the fighter at 140lbs. No more draining.

    How many in-house fights is Arum going to make?

    Alvarado has a good chance in this.

    Or he'll be fighting bigger guys where his bullying tactics won't be half as effective. :yep

    His lack of defence will cost him soon, especially as he steps up in weight.

    Rios did not again impress me last night, as I said before he just a better version of John Murray himself with a bit more pop and a better engine as in workrate, he comes in straight lines just like Murray with no head movement and a poor defence.

    Let's see how he does at 140, he should fight the Ghost.

    I compare Rios' performance against Murray as similar to Chisora's against Fury, if he gets his **** together the potential is there for him to turn things around. Hopefully the difference will be like night and day ... ie - like the improvement of delboy against Helenius

    No Khan should stop ducking the ghost and sign the fight so he can get knocked out again.
