    Agreed. He will find 140 tough with the likes of Khan/Peterson and killers like McCloskey

    It makes sense but I doubt Rios and his handlers are thinking so acutely and precise. I genuinely think its because Rios wont be as effective at a higher weight and Garcia and Rios probably know that.
    Time will tell though, because this is his last fight at 135 :deal

    If he truly is trying to face JMM next at 140 then it was a pretty bad idea to try to make 135 for this fight. I've read Rios looks drained, he could have his hands full with Abril if thats the case. Abril isn't bad and if Rios isn't at 100% it could be a tough night.

    He's got to move up. He's making a mockery of the sport with his constant missing weight. If you can't make the weight, don't sign the contract.
