    Won't be a shock. Most people view Rios as over rated garbage. Realistically, he wasn't a top 8 140 pounder when he was there. He probably isn't a top 20 147 pounder. This is a good showcase fight for Chaves, and I fully expect him to take out the trash.

    Come on man. Diaz was going to get his ass kicked. Thurman wasn't going anywhere Diaz was done just because he was starting to have a little success doesn't mean anything Thurman has shown he can adjust.

    Did you see the Chaves fight? He tried to go to war with him and Chaves got the best of him. He then started moving and going to the body and he broke Chaves down that was a great adjustment he made in that fight.
