Kahn ran and Peterson was able to cut the ring off and land punches. Rios would do the same only better. Kahn has nothing to hurt Rios with.
before this Lamont Peterson fight...i tought khan would beat Rios ..But now post Peterson fight....i must confess Rios would murder khan.
I don't think Rios can apply quick enough pressure. Khan would know not to mess with Rios since he's strictly a hard-punching pressure fighter. Khan thought he could exchange with Peterson as he's not accustomed to fighting this fight. It appeared to be a mistake, and Khan got on his bike more to box and use his volume and speed to try and scrap a decision. Against Rios, I believe he would be able to control the center of the ring much better than against Peterson simply because Peterson's build, speed, and craft are far better and far more overlooked. He applied quick pressure, and his defense is also better too.
Rios would **** Khan in the inside. Freddy Roach has had a terrible year DeMarco beating Linares Pacquiao's controversial decision over Marquez Amir Khan losing to Peterson
Khan cant run all night, and his defense is ****. Rios knows how to cut off the ring, and unlike Peterson, who takes off in spots, Rios will apply CONSTANT pressure. Rios will **** Khan up big time.
