This. rios likes to be right in your chest, whereas matthysse likes to keep people on the end of his shots. lucas would stop rios in a great fight in about 8 rounds.
that's why i wasn't willing to write him off so quickly. i wanted to see what he did in this fight first. he done good. he does best with other fighters, boxers will pick him apart. he isn't P4P though.
I'd like to see Mattyesse vs Alvarado and Garcia vs Rios; ideally on the same card. :hey The winners can square off; so can the losers. (if only Fossil Bob and Schaefer would kiss and make up)
I believe that no one who stands in front of mattyesse can beat him if you can't beat him even Judah and Alexander had trouble with him using angles n boxing...aJose n Soto learned n Rios has a chance to prove me wrong but I'm not too sure of it
No I didn't. I thought Alvarado's size and strength would see him outslug Rios. unfortunarely the ref robbed us of a great conclusion.
140 is hot right now. theres sum great fights out there . how bout... rios vs garcia rios vs matthysse garcia vs matthysse
You're forgetting the gay promotional rivalries of todays boxing era. GBP vs TR. Never going to happen.
Anyone who isn't a hater can tell Rios was weight drained for his last two fights at 135, He looked very weak and slow.
Rios would have about as much success against Matthysse as you have spelling his name. jk man but I do think Lucas would leave that fight with a W, and Im not sure Rios makes the final bell. THAT is the fight that should be getting made..... but sadly, it will probably never happen.
