    I am picking 8 or less. Chaves crumbled under the pressure of Thurman. There is little chance he will not crumble under Rios' pressure. Seek and destroy and applying pressure is what Rios does well.

    Rios is different to Thurman.

    Chaves might give Rios more than he bargained for...All Chaves needs is the ring control & defence and he well might win this fight...lemme tell you Rios knows this ain't an easy fight. Chaves is way too static for my liking...think he will get lured into Rios's type of fight.

    Yes, Rios is different than Thurman. He is different in a good way.

    6, I think Rios would KO Thurman as well, Thurman fans have elevated Diego to make it seem like a more legit win than it is.

    Thurman is better. And does not have down syndrome.

    Thurman may be technically better, but he doesn't have ****** strength like Rios. Which is a great equalizer.

    if Chavez comes as good as he came against Thurman, i expect him to beat Rios. but we don't know if he'll perform that well in this fight so it's a toss up for me.

    should be a good action packed fight. that much we do know.

    Rios is about to lose again. You think Alvarado flushed him, Thurman will tear his ass up. He is not in Thurman's league.

    I like Chavez by decision. Not a fan of Rios. give him some lateral movement and dont stand and trade and it should be a convincing win for Chavez.
