    This.

    Rios is Game. not a Ducker.
    Thoough he did get whooped by Abril.

    You would think Broner Would Clown him pretty bad...
    Unless he learned something sinc than...doubtful.

    I agree actually. It is a good fight. I think it depends on how well Rios takes Broner's punch

    I doubt that Broner hits harder than Acosta, who has pretty good skills himself. Rios survived some rough spots against Acosta, and imposed his will in that fight.

    I think this is a fight Al Haymon won't be willing to pull the trigger on.

    If it gets made though, the bigger wager would be who makes the weight--

    Agreed with Cellz. The winner should receive a lot of credit, whomever it ended up being.

    Your assessment is precisely why this fight more than likely ends in a KNOCKOUT, either way.

    Broner is a flat footed fighter. He is usually significantly stronger than his opponents, which is more than likely why he fights that way. With Rios... and the way Rios fights... it would come down to who can impose their will on the other more effectively. Rios does not stop coming forward and his chin & punch have proven to be noteworthy.

    A crucial factor in the outcome will depend on how well Rios takes Broner's punches as he pressures him.

    This is a very good match up of styles and I honestly do not know who would win.

    As we saw with Abril, Rios needs a figter in front of him that wants to fight, to look good. Broner is not a mover. He would go toe to toe with Rios. That would be a brave but albeit foolsih thing to do.

    would love to see this one. Broner would **** himself with Rios stalking him. He could not handle PDLs pressure so Rios who is much bigger and a harder puncher would be a nightmare for Broner. Rios is also much taller than PDL so Broner would not find it so easy to run from him.

    Lets make this one happen!!!

    lmao. Abril made Rios his ***** in EVERY round. couldnt penetrate the shoulder roll. Broners fight with Ponce was actually close.

    Rios gets made into a fool.

    If they fight at 130 gotta say I agree.... but I remember the problem saying he would fight Rios at a catch weight... catch weight of what?

    yes abril whooped Rios but that has nothing to do with Broner as Abril and Broner fight nothing alike. Abril fought the perfect fight by jabbing hooking and holding. Broner is not a defensive wiz like Abril and likes to come forward. also isn't Abril close to 6 foot tall?

    Rios is more like PDL than Broner is like Abril. There is guys i will pick to beat Rios clearly at 135-140 but Broner is not one of them. Actually doubt this fight would get made since Broner would get his first official loss.
