    Educated pressure fighting is a largely lost art today and I'm not going to pretend guys like Rios are skilled as a result of declining standards.

    He's right though.

    Guys like Rios and Maidana are dreadful.

    Even Matthyse is only slightly above average in a historical context.

    In relative and historical terms, they are. It's like taking brawler and making it even more limited than it is. Of course they have some skills.

    Rios and Maidana are nothing alike and neither is dreadful.

    Watch the fight again. Its basically Khan running and when they are on the inside, Cortez breaking them up so Khan can keep running. <insert pic of Khan on unicycle>

    A questionable stoppage is regarded as putting someone to sleep now?

    How dumb are you? Really how dumb?
