    we've seen what jmm done with brawlers such as Diaz and katidas, good wins but they were damaged goods. rios is a better version of them both right now than when jmm fought them. if jmm and rios fought, it would be a fight we see jmm going old over night. 10 rd tko

    Imagine Rios vs Marquez being 5 times better than Salido vs Lopez, is it even possible, kind of hard with that 9th round in the Lopez vs Salido fight.

    By the way, is there a source for this? As of now, it seems like Rios is going to fight Abril?

    Marquez also faced one of the best Offensive Brawlers of all time, and that is PAcquiao x3...

    Pac is a better version of anyone you just mentioned...

    JMM ain't getting old over night nothing, he is a proffesional and takes care of his body 120% and now even has a condition coach, he is not the morales or hatton type that baloons up and Party.. marquez is all business if you think someone is getting old overnight it ain't marquez..


    Marquez TKO 10.

    Oh yes Definitely...

    The fireworks will come early... but as the fight progresses and the Body work has taken its toll, the counters are to stinging, Rios will be going down late in the fight with Marquez doing a number on him... Rios best bet is to rush Marquez early and hope he stays down because if he gets up, and it goes into the later rounds oh OH! Marquez by TKO!

    After schooling your hero Pacquiao and getting shafted by Arum's judges...Marquez has earned the right to do whatever the **** he wants.


    If he was willing to face Mayweather (something your hero still hasn't done), with every single disadvantage possible, there is no reason why he wouldn't take on someone like Rios. :deal

    Rios is a hard fight for Marquez at this point.

    A very hard fight indeed...But Marquez does have the tools to come out victorious...However, what i do fear is how Marquez will be after the fight...This fight has the potential to take away alot out of him.

    Definitely has the tools to beat Rios. I just worry about his hunger and motivation. He stated that it was Pacquiao or retirement...and the Pacquiao bout hasn't materialised. At this stage, Rios is probably as good as he is ever going to get, hungry, not weight drained at 140lbs, relentless pressure...could catch Marquez at the perfect time.

    Excellent bout though.

    There's too much disregard in here for Gesta it's laughable.

    I really don't know why this thread wasn't titled JMM-Rios thread instead.

    Gesta has the ability to outfinesse JMM especially if he's lost a bot of edge due to age.

    And Gesta will just box Rios ears silly.

    You heard it here first.

    already talked to my girl last night. I told her I really wanted to go to this one as JMM is one of my favorites of all time and he wont be around much longer.

    I was really hoping this was in Las Vegas though as she wanted to go there.
    Anyways she was game to go so when tickets come up for this one I am definitely getting some.

    Rios would beat seven shades of **** out of Gesta...who has been getting questionable decisions against journeymen....No need to go into detail on what Marquez would do to him...
