    I think the benefit to Rubio is that he is a full time fighter and has largely been in good health.

    Grady isn't one, he usually fights part time, and doesn't get full camps to prepare for anyone because of this financial status and his part time fighting. That and they have different styles.

    I appreciate both of them as fighters though, but I belive that while Rubio has the better success rate and resume, Grady might be more skilled just other **** has negatively affected him.

    Rubio is trash. I don't want to see that guy recycled again.

    He repeatedly falls short at the world level, then beats up bums and gets another title shot while better boxers can't get title shots.

    I like Guerrero but I don't think he has enough of anythig to trouble Quillin the way Ndam did for long stretches in their fight. Maybe because the last time I remember seeing him he took a beatdown. Anyway, I hope your right, and I'm not because it means we'll get a real good fight.

    Guerrero was dropping down in weight vs Brewer, which sounds like a good idea for him, may not have done properly. Now he's back at middle where he's a little small.

    Zbik's not too hot but N'Dam is the only one he's significantly worse than in Quillin's "run."

    Lee>McEwan and the Rubio Chavez fought is better than the one Quillin will. It's impossible to rate a Wright win at this point.

    As I said, there are low standards for "solid" in the middleweight division. N'Dam is the best opponent of the lot and Manfredo the worst, but the remaining fights tilt in Chavez's favor IMO.
