    Rois is good for boxing, he's just not a particularly good boxer.

    How does he fight smaller guys?

    he walks around at 160 and starves himself for 1 week to FAIL making weight by 1.6 pounds...


    **** I wouldn't be suprised if the dude has had surgery to remove a kidney and two balls to make lower weights

    forgot to add he takes the **** out of Parkinsons. What a brainless chimp.

    160 is not a big walk around weight for lightweights in this era my friend.

    Ive never been a fan and typically root for the guy he fights but its sad all these back stabber fans

    Sure Rios career seems in limbo and all with all the weight problems and his last fight but any one who thinks this guy is going to disappear is dead wrong

    id love for this guy to shut up critics

    why not do a fight at 140 vs Garcia

    Still a fan never stopped although I felt he lost his last fight. No doubt Rios will be back.

    I want to see Rios vs Garcia too, but I think Garcia stops him. :good

    I think Rios is good for boxing, he will do very good in certain types of fights and create for some awesome action. Garcia vs Rios is an AWESOME fight. If Garcia can control Rios pressure than he may find some serious success on him. It would be a BOMBS away fight.

    Maidana, Matthysse, Alvarado, Rios...I can be a fan of all of them if they'd just fight ASAP.

    Not really, I don't usually jump ship, but he has failed to make the weight twice and got schooled in last outing. He didn't do ****. Nothing.

    I wanted to take a bat to his ass for raising his hands when that bull**** decision was announced.

    The guy was ok and a prospect worth watching, that was until he failed the weight in for the consecutive time. Now he's just some loud mouth calling out smaller fighters.

    i don't see him making anymore noise at the worldclass level. He succeeded at LW vs smaller dudes but never really beat anyone of note and showed mad flaws vs B/C level fighters like Murray but now that he's at 140 he desn't have the size/power advantage and he's already proven he can be outboxed by a decent technician so the good boxers at 140 and up school him and he won't be able to bully the brawlers at the bigger weight.....future is not bright for Bam Bam

    on the bright side he's exciting so he can become a minstay on the FNF circuit fighting B/C level dudes
