    his whole success is inside fighting. That is why the Pacman fight is so interesting and I think surprising Pacman wanted it after this last fight. Rios is not the fighter Pacman is, but he has heart and he will stay in there throwing.

    In the current scheme of things, B, give or take. Solid championship level fighter but not among the very best.

    World class brawler. Just needs some fundamentals like using that piston like jab he has and cutting the ring off more. Fight with more urgency. Not be one dimensional.

    C. He's a one dimensional fighter. Any movement will throw him off his game, he def can't handle pacs in and out movement

    Hate these alphabetical rating's, but I reckon he's a C as a boxer, and an A as a fighter.

    B fighter - he destroys the Guerreros of this world - can you imagine Rios in there instead of Berto? Guerrero gets hurt badly
