I think this would be a great fight personally I think rios has way to much power and heart for Broner so who wins ? Man this cold war sucks man so many great fights to be made.
Rios is a plodding zombie with no speed or movement of any kind. Rios would fool people once again into believing that Broner was defensively special. His face would be red with counters part way through the second round.
Rios could make it interesting, especially considering that Broner doesn't have the power to hurt Rios and is stationary as hell
Rios hits quiet hard the only problem is can Broner take it ? and also Rios has a iron chin and if Broner couldn't hurt Paulie how can Broner hurt Rios ?
broner is a multi division champion and lost to a better man in maidiana, maidana is alot better than rios i reckon.
Rios cannot handle speed or movement. Rios couldn't win a round off of Abril in my opinion and he has regressed in every way since then. I see no reason to feel he actually scores the upset more often then not if he fought Broner 100 times. Maidana couldn't stop Broner and he is a much better, more proven, and harder hitting WW than Rios is. So people citing Rios' chin, which yes it is amazing, should also pay their dues in this match up to Broners' chin. Rios isn't going to magically KO him. I don't know how people view Rios as a power punching one punch KO artist. He is precisely the opposite of that.
Actually an interesting match up. Slow plodder with iron chin and KO power, versus B grade defensive fighter who throws 2 punches a round. I wouldn't know how to call it. Either Broner wins on points, or Rios KOs him.
exactly this, they think a tough guy automatically is a killer puncher. rios would be a punch bag for broner.
