    That's a good question..was thinking about this one but I still can't tell. Need to review Bradley' fights. Rios defense was improved against Antillon and he got very good skills. Bradley is very strong at Jr WW and he got speed but not sure about his defense. Rios works the body and head. I'd say Bradley wants to make it a fight thinking Rios is moving up therefore not as strong as him until he realize Rios will not stop going forward even though he's eating some punches on the way. Bradley is a rock though and took some monster body shots against Peterson. I rank Acosta very high and therefore would take Rios to win against Bradley bc I believe Acosta is a better boxer than Bradley.

    Would be a disadvantage for RIOS adding up weight for the fight.. however, I still personally beleive Bradley's impressive workrate will always depend on the type of fighters he faces. With RIOS, he'll face an entirely different type of fighter. With power on both hands, knows what those powers are for (unlike Holt & alexander) and has the heart to back up his mouth.. =)

    This is actually one of the most interesting fights that could be made in all of boxing. I have no clue at this point who may win.

    Tough call damn. It's hard to say how the weight will effect Rios. Given that he's very big at LW, it may just help him. Plus, we still haven't seen the best of Rios IMO.

    Bradley would get layed out cold. Rios would walk through his headbutts.

    Hard to say.. I think Bradley could win an SD, he will take a lot of punishment on the way..

    Rios late KO for me. The only fighter I think will beat Rios under 147 is Guerrero

    Bradley easily. Too much speed, skill, smarts, and size. Rios is being massively overhyped, very good fighter, but still overhyped.

    Just to confirm we are talking about Desert Storm Bradley right? Cuz it would seem the answer is quite obvious.

    These match up questions with Rios are killing me man. Normally I go with the more skilled 'boxers' but Rios is just a ****ing beast.

    similar to Rios vs Acosta only that Bradley wont break down at some point..
    Bradley came off the canvas against Holt. he might turned into a ducker all of a sudden for some reason or another but hes tough in the ring. tough enough to get the job done against Rios rather easily imo
