Freddy Roach: " Jorge Linares would kill Brandon Rios "

[ElTerribleMorales]

I actually agree with him to a point, sorry the only real thing that Rios has going for him is he can take a beating and he's huge next to his opponents. IMO he's really overrated due to this, any small fighter with skill has given him problems and have been ahead on the cards up until the point of the stoppage, Linares is far more skilled and defensively sound for the most part compared to the likes of Acosta and Antillon, add in his power and I don't see why he wouldn't be able to beat up Rios and badly.

Just recently Linares could not put away Rocky Juarez, I could just imagine what bully Rios would do.

I gotta agree with ElTerrible. Rios is very fun but he's flavor of the month to me and I think he'll have a short shelf life. He's strong but as face first as they come and is insulted if you dont punch him, he also looks soft in the midsection and should move up any day now.

Who the fuck has ever put Juarez away

Humberto Soto? nope, UD

The great Marco Antonio Barrera on either of his two fights? nope a SD and a UD

JMM? nope, another UD

John? no a Draw and UD, Litzau? nope, a technical decision, and both Sanabria and Escobedo by UD

Linares was the first guy to put him on his ass and beat him the full 10 rounds
