    Rios isn't that great. He still was never a strong champion IMO.

    Also I think he is being overrated a lot because a lot of people know about him... The alvarado trilogy and pac fight got him a lot of exposure to casual fans.

    Wins over Clottey and Cintron are enough for me to say Marg was better. ALthough I'm not sure if he was cheating or not then... So its kinda murky.

    yeh pretty much this.. the proof is in the pudding. even when he wasnt cheating for sure he still gave cotto a tough fight in the rematch where as rios only step up to elite level opp was a complete shut out at the hands of pac (atleast marg put up a better fight.. to bad it cost him his eye lol)

    Rios beats Guerrero, Maidana, and Ortiz.

    I know that hurts your feelings, but tell your boy to grow some ***** and fight Pacquaio and stop bein a lil *****.

    Once that fight is done with, you don't have to continue your campaign of trashing guys Manny Pacquaio easily beat, and didn't require a second fight with.

    Hole up. Do you mean Antonio Margarito or some other dude with the same last name? Antonio Margarito was a damn monster at 147.

    yeah Rios got some inside game, no doubt. but thats his only game, if somebody boxes him hes screwed. everybody has there traits, just cant see Rios winning on the highest level

    I agree that Rios is not very good but this statement just oozes fanboy essence

    A slightly better Margarito?!!

    Margarito was several times the fighter rios is

    You're just ****ting on Margarito because he beat Cotto and scared Mayweather into retirement

    Btw, I like Cotto but we can't just assume that Margarito cheated there
