    Hopefully we find out soon.

    Rios-Maidana, Rios-Alexander, Rios-Khan, Rios-Bradley, Rios-Judah, Rios-Matthysse, Rios-Peterson

    I'd pick Rios to win 4/5 of the 7 matchups above.

    Rios is certainly no Hype job!! JMM would school him but JMM would school everyone at 135!!

    Rios is fighting top ranked fighters and winning, what more do you want?!!

    Rios is an exciting fighter to watch but guys like him typically have short careers.

    he is great to watch, never in a boring fight and that is what Boxing fans should care about IMO.

    Rios is good but will get schooled by Guerrero IMO.... but he vs Maidana would be insane

    A lack of defense does not equal a hype job. Regardless of what you think of his slkill level, he's getting the job done vs. the top guys in his division.

    Thinking a fighter must be sound in every depatrtment otherwise he's a hype job is terribly flawed. Results are what matter.

    **** Thread. Defeating Acosta the Antillon in spectacular fashion is not something Hypejobs do. But it's your Opinion.

    He's a bit overrated lately, but he's certainly not a hype-job. He's backed up his claims with impressive offensive skills over ranked opponents. He's not technically elite, but he may have enough to eventually be a world-beater and go on a significant run of divisional supremacy.

    He's just not there yet.
