If you followed the brothers' careers from the beginning, you'd know that it was actually Anthony Peterson who was more hyped as the better of the two.. Fighters may be only good as their last fight but c/mon man, a young fighter kinda froze under the bright lights and choked but that aint the first.. Peterson was handling himself pretty well until Rios' power got to him.. Whatever happened, he's still young and can comeback cuz dude has potential.
Just cuz Rios beat him dont mean that BUrns can do the same cuz like VD mentioned, they are two very different fighters... BUrns couldnt hold Rios' spit bucket man. He dont got that kinda power.
Kevin Mitchell had tons of issues heading into the bout so i dont even hold that loss against him. He was boozing, womanizing, had that drug case, and failed to train properly.. A B level fighter beat an A level talent by circumstance..
BOth on their best night, Kev would make Burns look like a pedestrian. Look, a novice like Jose Gonzalez outboxed and dominated BUrns for half the fight. U dont think Kevin Mitchell can?? lol it's obvious that a fully focused Kev would dominate Burns just as he did Presscott...
On a sidenote, KEv is about two notches above Jose Gonzalez..
