What round will Rios stop Chaves.

Abril, by many/most accounts, won all 12 off Rios just, what, 3 or 4 fights ago? And Rios is 1-2 plus two divisions higher and a positive drug test since then.

 

chaves wins in my book, i like rios but chaves is just on another lvl.

 

Chaves is so far Thurmans toughest test , he held his own before getting caught .

This wont be easy for Rios .

 

Rios has a big left hook and needs to load up on it for it to even be effective. His pressure only good when he can impose his size and strength on fighters. Chavez, if not affected by the Thurman loss, is going to win the early rounds. Rios is just too one dimensional, not that Chavez is such a great talent either. But it seems like a good fan friendly matchup between 2 punchers. Algeri-Rios is another good fight. Pure boxer vs pressure fighter.

 

I agree to a degree yea Bam Bam used to fight alot more intelligently at 135. Haven't really seen him at his best since the Acosta fight. Alot of switch hitting and at times had a snappy, underrated jab, but he never uses anymore. Gotten lazy. Depends too much on his chin, one of these days someone will expose him by banging that soft body of his. Juan Diaz was making a comeback would love to see Torito Diaz vs Bam Bam.

 

If Rios liked defense half as much as he likes cuss words, I'd give him a shot.
I like Chaves in this fight.

 

Chaves will quit again.

 

Chaves just seems all the more tender (damn can't find the word right now). Rios has a better chin and he's good in a war. I can't see Chaves giving him too much trouble. I think Rios is going to knock him out in the late rounds, possibly 7-9. If Chaves wins though, I'd be very surprised. Hell, anything is possible in boxing.

 

especially when it's bum bum Rios who has terrible boxing skills.

 

:deal

 

It was only once against the hard hitting thruman. with a lil boxing skill you'll beat rios.
