    The fight is 50/50. I agree with that. Bradley is getting drag into wars recently. The man that always wanted him to box Diaz is gone now. I think he might go full re****ed in that fight and get stopped. But Brook would've boxed Rios silly. He has the power to keep him at bay and the boxing ability to confuse him. Brook by late KO imao.

    Right and wrong. I don't give Rios a good chance of beating Brook or Bradley. But Bradley is another story. While he may be on the decline, he still has enough to beat a guy like Brook, who has done exactly what other than beat Porter? Brook has talent and it would be a very good fight at this stage, but to say that Brook beats Bradley with no problem ....... based on what?

    Why does everyone think Bradley is going to go full re**** since Diaz is gone? bradley is near his mid 30's he's extremely experienced, he's not a prospect. No way Brook will ko rios lmfao, dude couldnt even hurt Porter a guy Broner knocked down. Brook's power is so overrated because he knocks bums like dan and gavin out.

    Brook has done nothing and fought no one other than Porter. Porter is the best fighter he has met. Many had Porter winning their fight. Out of the UK Brook is average at best. Style makes fights. Brook is an ok boxer but nothing special. Rios would have no fear of Brook. He would apply pressure throughout. Brook would be forced to move or hold. Bradley vs Rios is the much tougher fight. I think Bradley has a slight edge if he boxes smart. If he trades inside with Rios it will get ugly for him. Brook needs to leave the safety of the UK and become a world class fighter or fail. On a personal note. Rios was more excited about going to and fighting for.his fans in the UK than he was about fighting Brook. Rios has alot of fans there.

    Changing trainers can help or hurt a fighter no doubt but depending on Bradley ' s real reasons for doing so and his commitment to learning and following a new trainer and the new ways of a trainer. It could make a huge difference either way. It is probably to late to changes his style much but not to late to adjust it and his attitude.

    Rios can hurt Bradley but short of a headbutt. Bradley has nothing to hurt Rios with. I think this will be both fighters best fight.

    This is from someone who said Porter would absolutely annihilate Brook and had to alt up after the fight he was so convinced by his prediction. Leave the Brook talk to the pros son.

    With regards to Gavin and Dan...lets not forget the guy got stabbed and took a while to recuperate. He needed those fights to get the wheels rolling again and he won them convincingly.

    I'll refer back to the previous comments...Brook beats Bradley, of this i'm certain...although much of this is down to Bradley's advancing years.

    With regards to Rios, if you look at his previous fights of note, he lost to Pac and s****ed a split decision over Abril, a midcard at best. He isn't in the same league as Bradley or Brook.

    Brook would easily beat Rios. I can't believe this thread even exists.

    Brook has more than enough ability to outbox Rios and win a wide decision.
