    Rios wouldve been bludgeoned by Valero. Rios too inexperienced. Maybe in 2-3 years had Valero still been alive, it wouldve been a great fight.

    I still feel even with what we've just seen from Rios that Valero's lateral movement with straight punches, stamina, punch output and power would be enough to KO Rios.

    Glad to see people showing respect for Valero's skills. A lot of people write him off as a bum just because they put too much focus on his personal life and judge him for what he did outside the ring. Rios can hold his own but the version of Valero that fought DeMarco appears to be more versatile than today's Rios. I'm not saying Valero was unbeatable or even elite but Brandon can be hurt and most likely will get KO'd or badly outboxed by a B+ or A- level opponent if he doesn't improve in a few areas.

    hard to pick. Rios is a big LW and he can punch and take a punch, but we all know that Valero is a monster. too bad we will never know who would win between them.

    Valero was using pillow gloves when he knocked out antillon in a sparring. Rios did it in a championship bout. Would have been an exciting fight but the sad truth is that we will never find out who wins. One thing I'm sure of is that it would be a KO.

    Are we talking about a boxing match or a family slaughtering contest?

    In all honesty; If Rios' career ever falls apart his wife may want to consider scouping up the kids and heading for high ground. He seems like a loose cannon to me. Him and Valero may have been separated at birth.

    This is just sparring between Valero and Antillon. I think it's interesting especially now that Antillon and Rios just fought.

    This is exactly how I would picture Valero fighting Bam Bam ..Keeping him at the end of his punches while firing off combos ..Hard combos at that ..Antillion didn't know what to do going backwards ..Valero's lateral movement looked like it also confused hima as well..I know its just sparring but it does give a nice glimpse as to what could have been .

    That was pretty cool. Valero dominated when helet his hands go in combination like that. Valero vs rios would still be a great fight no matter the income
