Is Matthysse v Rios the most exciting fight out there?

    Rios getting stopped in 3 is nonsense IMO. The guy has a hell of a chin.

    I dunno what it is about Mares but he bores me. No fight involving him gets my blood pumping.

    50/50 fight,would be a war,have to say though as good as a chin as Rios has he will eventually get stopped by a puncher cause of his face first defence..

    Oh yeah I agree it wouldn't be over in 3. Itd be tight until about the 5th/6th, then Matthysse would bust him up and stop him in the later rounds imo.

    Matthysse is a better boxer, fighter and puncher than Rios, I have seen nothing from Rios to suggest he could beat Matthysse, certainly not once he went life and death with average alvarado

    think about it, the only chance Rios has is to stand and brawl with Matthysse, now, considering Matthysse does EVERYTHING better than Rios brawl-wise, what chance does Rios have? Rios gets beaten up badly and pulled out late
