what? bum bum would get lit the **** up, ref waves it off after rios starts eating ridiculous punishment
Based on what? Khan's furious slappy jabs? Or the power that the iron chinned Salita couldnt handle? He'd probably scrape a UD, but he doesnt knock him out. He doesnt have the power
Pfft only way Khan 'knocks him out' is either by headbutt, low blow, cut or totally unrelated injury. (Not hating but Khan has actually racked up wins by every single one of these methods already) It's possible Khan could beat him, but it seems far more likely that jelly-legged King Khan comes back and he ends up getting stopped himself.
Khan wins and easily too, Rios is way overrated here, if Acosta was giving him a boxing lesson, King Khan will make him look stupid. Khan maybe doesnt have one punch power, but he can flurry his way to a stoppage.
Rios is way to open for Khan, Khan would move around and land mostly at will, Khan would put a real beating on Rios.
A fight between my favourite fighters currently I think Rios will get Banjo'd to be honest. Although he eventually ran through Acosta he got worked over a little bit and I expect Khan to follow a similar pattern but have the handspeed and spite in the punches to stop Rios in his tracks Referee stoppage around 8-9 for me
Would be a class fight and, yeah, I agree it would likely follow the Acosta-Rios template, with Rios coming on strong in the latter half of the fight. I think it'd be a testament to Khan's ability if he manages to win because Rios is exactly the sort of fighter that would give him problems... the guy is relentless, takes a shot as well as anybody and can bang. Tough fight for anyone at 135-140lbs. Hope it happens, but Khan is blatantly going after Morales/Matthysse winner for undisputed champ status. Matthysse isn't a bad match up either, to be fair, every time I've seen him he's been in exciting fights.
Khan by probably quite wide decision, after a few moments early on. Khan too quick and would pick him off. Possible late stoppage. I like Rios but he is way overrated on here.
I'm thinking that as well but fighters seem to be rated according to theor last performance and his was pretty good.
