Who wins this all out war @ 140 with both at their best? Does Rios’ chin handle the power of Matthysse?
I think Matty Ice gets him outta there. Hits too hard and Rios won’t be able to take that for 12 rounds. Even a prime Rios. Lucas gets him outta there no later than 6
Rios was a sponge. Dude could absorb punishment. Matthysse was a better 140 pounder but I don't see him winning by stoppage. Rios also was a major party boy so towards the end of his career he wasn't nearly the same guy
Matty Ice would have flattened Rios. Brandon had a solid chin, but it wasn't anywhere near as good as Danny Garcia or Provo's chins. The shots Matthysse caught those guys with would have dropped Rios. Matthysse in 6.
