    What about Burns Rios who yous got
     
  2. I'd say Rios outpunches and overwhelms Burns to a clearish decision.

    Ricky would have his moments early though, if he can bank the early rounds he'd have a chance.

    Mitchell would have been stopped earlier than Murray IMO.

    Burns has the best chance out of any of our lot to beat Rios, I'd actually have a sneaky few quid on him if they were to meet. Rios looks to be moving up anyways so this fight isn't going to happen for Mitchell or Burns any time soon.

    If it were to happen though, I can't see Mitchell keeping Rios at bay for 12 rounds - Rios would eventually catch up with him and stop him on his feet.

    Wrong on every count. Rios would destroy Mitchell.

    It was a fair point because he didn't make the weight, that often means the fighter is dried out. But he showed resolve to press on and keep working.

    I believe if he'd made the weight comfortably he'd have had Murray out of there in four rounds.

    Facts are facts, Rob - he couldn't keep Murray off him (who you admit hadn't trained especially hard). How the **** will he keep a guy like Rios off?

    He won't. He's not a world-level fighter. Good fighter in general, but never above Euro-level.
