    Both got a gift decision in there last fights against guys more skilled fighters. Both are undefeated, strong, and pretty one dimensional. Whos the better fighter?

    i thought Cloud won or drew in that fight

    a 10-7 1st the 4th 5th 6th and 12th maybe even the 11th

    Cloud is a very good fighter just had an off night vs a tricky fighter

    Rios has way more flaws

    Well, you need to start thinking more... because he lost that fight by a wide margin.

    Rios is more polished to be honest... Cloud doesn't seem smart at all... but he has way more tools/ gifts than Rios does in the athletic department

    I see Cloud as being strong but very limited (I think Hopkins would beat him), Rios, when not drained, has a subtle but effective defense and the ability to time his punches well.

    If they where made magically the same size and fought, I'd bet the rent on Rios.
