    Freddie Roach: Amir Khan will expose Brandon Rios at 140. I definitely want to see that fight. I want Amir to stay at 140 and beat Rios just for me. Brandon Rios made fun of me before with my Parkinson’s, and even though it was funny, I feel I was disrespected. Brandon is an exchange fighter. He doesn’t even know how to throw a feint, he has no game plan and you can tell. The fight the other night was just two guys in a ring swinging at each other. It was a good fight to watch. There was a lot of action with no skill. It seems as if his coach isn’t teaching him any skill. The same thing goes for Margarito; he follows Cotto all around the ring without cutting the ring off. I mean that is a fundamental skill in boxing. Amir Khan would destroy Brandon Rios. We’ll take thatfight!

    I like how he takes shots at Robert Garcia also!

    Umm Maidana was far more crude then Rios with a worse chin and he had Khan out on his feet.

    Would love to see this fight though.

    I was hoping for this. I wanted Matthysse to fight Morales for the WBC and then fight Bradley or Khan next

    Rios gives Khan lots of problems with his swarming style. I would love to see it though, I think Khan can win this comfortably if he fights smart and doesn't get dragged into a brawl. But that's a big if.

    The same thing I said about Garcia in regard to Margarito and Rios.........The Khan fight would be a nice test to see if Khan could deal with a high motor pressure fighter

    I think we will see Bradley vs Rios first though

    Pacquiao can cut the ring off much better than Margarito and Rios IMO. But he is nowhere near as good as he should be.

    Rios Stops him late. Btw I thought it was Margarito who made fun of his Parkinson's? Idk but stop with the grudge, It was a childish act by them but the reason the fight between Khan and Rios should be made is so we get a good fight, Not because you are all angry.

    Hell no! One thing I've notice from Roach is that he takes fights where he knows his boxer's are going to win. He has a good eye for that! If he claims that Khan will dispose of Rios easy and is very confident, I don't doubt it. To me Rios is just like another Margarito but with a little bit more movement than the walking zombie. Maidana vs Rios, now that will be a FOTY candidate!!!!!
