Rios will be a force in 140 division. He can beat Garcia, Khan, Peterson. Only threats to him are Lucas and Marquez. I see Rios Marquez being made before Pacquiao and Rios.

Donaire did what I expected, don't know how people thought Nishioka had a great chance. Knew he would respect Donaire's power way too much. The last guy who fought Donaire had his jaw broken in two places.

Let's get Rios vs Marquez win or lose vs Manny or Rios vs Garcia.

Donaire vs Rigo/Mares vs Moreno winner

rios may be able to beat khan and possibly peterson. he beat the other brother....but i think garcia, matthysse, marquez, pac, bradley all beat him by ko or lopsided decision. he's going to make pac look like a beast again if pac can get past marquez.

I don't know how you absolutely think Garcia can beat him. Them looping punches won't help him when Rios makes it an inside fighting game. Khan doesn't hit nowhere near as hard as Rios but within 3 rounds he made Garcia's face look like it went through a cat fight. Rios stop Danny within 10 rounds, Stops Peterson within 12. I think Matthysse beats him by tko late. Marquez would be a close fight and I'm leaning towards Rios by late stoppage. Pacquiao would stop Rios within 11 rounds or win by decision. Bradley UD's him. Luckily Bradley or Pac isn't in his weight class...neither is Marquez.

khan was fast and i've seen him drop ppl with single shots. i've not seen rios do that to anyone so i don't get how u think rios' big, wide, slow shots will catch danny. danny is as solid as they come and can actually box. as alvarado proved with the very little bit of boxing skills he has...u can outbox rios easily. danny has heavy hands. i can't see rios going the distance in that one especially after all the punishment he took in this last fight.

lamont is a lot better than anthony...but he does like to fight in the pocket so he'll give rios some opportunity.

rios doesn't see round 6 against matthysse...same with jmm and pac.

bradley schools him easily and may stop him mid to late rounds.

rios, like his buddy margarito, only has a size and strength advantage...against guys his own size with real skill, he's going to get eaten up.
