    Manny is such a easy target now... seems like if you sign with TR you get to fight him in 2-3 fights time. First Timmy, now Rios?

    What snidey wankers GBP are. Matthysse is mandatory to fight their new star Garcia. Why not make that fight first? What on earth does Rios have to do with making the Donaire-Mares fight?

    Edit: Ignore ^^. Just read the article. A better proposition would be Rios vs. Garcia.

    That would be screwing Matthysse over even worse since he deserves Garcia loads more than Rios.

    True. But they're not letting Matthysse near Garcia regardless.

    You're a ****ing moron. Rios has way more boxing skills then Mattyesse and since when does peds make your chin better.

    I swear this forum gets dumber everyday.

    Matthysse has infinitely more skill than caveman Rios and his chin and power are just a s good. Matthysse likely wouldn't lose a ****ing round.

    Arum will never make that fight, he's feeding Rios to Pac and not letting him fight anyone good until then. Abril rematch will never happen nor will a fight with Garcia or Matthysse cause they all beat him with ease.

    gbp is really in no position to make demands here. rios and donaire are bigger attractions.

    I think Mares is a bigger attraction in southern california. Where is Donaire popular at?

    well no he's not but skill wise he has far more tools than Rios and is better at most things, doesn't take a genius to see that. why does rios have more skill, what does rios do better in your opinion?

    Mares is the biggest attraction in the weight class, but he is chasing after Donaire.
    I'd say Oscar would be better off negotiation for a Garcia - Rios fight that GBP promotes solo, than trying to force a Rios Matthaysse fight right now.
