    Rubio will not win on points, so that means he has one option by KO, 51 KO's is nothing to sneeze at he may be the biggest puncher GGG has fought yet, Rubio took tons of bombs from Chavez Lemieux and Pavlik we know he has a great chin.

    People shouldn't write off Rubio going the distance, and he's always a potential KO threat. This is GGG's toughest test to date and Rubio is a live dog, personally I think it goes the distance or Rubio's corner throws the towel in arund 10 or 11.

    Triple G win with body shot. Under 5 round. Rubio too brave.

    Stevens is a bigger puncher than rubio most of those 51 ko's have come against bums in mexico.you really think rubio is a tougher test than geale a two time MW world champion maybe because of the way ggg destroyed geale.the only reason rubio lasts longer than geale is because of his chin ggg still blows him out.

    Rubio would stop every opponent GGG has fought as well, except for Stevens maybe even him. Who the bigger puncher is, that's debatable, He and Stevens, both have a ton of bums they KO'd and when they step up they're not as successful.
    He has a great chin and possibly equal power with Stevens, people shouldn't write him off. Probably won't win but he's a tough test.

    Rubio is not like Geale/Macklin thats forsure

    Rubio is a Mex Warrior

    Macklin had fear in his eyes fought like a coward

    Geale got put down with GGG first power blow

    Rubio wont fold early like them

    it is the best fight for ggg considering no one wants to face him.credit to rubio for taking the fight when he could have pushed to fight cotto since he is cotto's mando.

    I think what he says may be true, Rubio is a true warrior, I like him but he'd still get KO'd though.

    Not always the case, e.g. against Fuchigami who had zero power he was defensively like Pernell.

    I don't, why is that hard to believe? I like Macklin but Sturm had him reeling late in their fight. Geale other than GGG never fought a really big puncher.

    When you judge a fight on one or two things like power etc you lose subjectively and forget that Rubio is a level or two below mackiln and geale

    If he was to beat either of them it would be a career best win and an upset
