at 154 lbs maybe rios gets KOd. then again whenever they went at it in the gym rios got the better of the guy. ortiz isnt much of a finisher
There's no doubt the Ortiz from that Berto fight beats him at 147. But Ortiz is way too flakey and fragile to pick over anyone.
At this stage I can't see how ANYBODY would favor Victoria. Rios is basically superior to Maidana in every single facet. Maidana doesn't have nearly the chin of Rios, yet he was able to survive Ortiz and make him fold. Brandon would fuck Ortiz up, and either make him quit, or take him out.
Yeah, Ortiz is clearly the bigger of the two, but Rios is simply too much man for bich ortez. With almost 100% certainty, Rios would withstand whatever Ortiz can dish out and make him fold with the unrelenting pressure he can apply.
I really believe that the Berto fight was a fluke. PED's or no, Berto was gonna starch him in the rematch. Plus, that was only a winnable fight for Ortiz because Berto has a shit chin. Once Ortiz nails Rios with a good shot, and Rios smiles and fires back, Ortiz would shit himself.
