    He's not the new Margarito. Angulo is the new Margarito. Rios is much more skilled than both of them combined. Rios and Margarito fight nothing alike just because they are both pressure fighters it doesn't mean they fight the same it's a very common mistake people make when evaluating pressure fighters. One comes forward plodding with no jab or defense not cutting the ring and eating shots. The other comes forward with a guard a jab cutting the ring and busting dudes up. I for one don't know why more people can't see this.:-(

    True Rios can counter effectively. I've seen him do it numerous times.

    He would win, but could he wreck him? I'm not sure if brandon can chase as fast as Con can run away he's pretty fast :D

    Chavez being a face first brawler is one of the biggest myths in boxing. JCC applied educated pressure with subtle defense.

    He is an exciting fighter with potential. I just can't rate him any higher until we see what he can do against better opposition.

    Brandon will lose when he fights someone credible and when that happens everyone will calm down on his hype.
    That's the ESB cycle.

    Someone credible? What does that, or who does that mean?

    Without a doubt... When he moves up all his advantages will be gone! For example if he fights Victor Ortiz @ 147 he would get his ass beat!
