I strongly disagree with Roach on this one. Linares has the ability to stay away enough to outbox Rios to a points win but nothing more. Even with that possibility I don't see him staying away for 10-12 rounds without getting overwhelmed enough for Rios to catch up with him. Rios by stoppage or UD with a couple of knockdowns.
I think it would be a battle for both guys, I think Linares does a lot of damage early, but gets caught, maybe even dropped once or twice. As the fight progresses & Linares slows Rios tags him more often & has him hanging on or takes him out down down stretch. If it gets to the cards I say it's a draw
The Best There Is, The Best There Was, The Best There Ever Will Be
Somebody put a big sausage in this big mouth over rated trainers mouth already . The more his fighters continue too lose the more he opens those studdering lips .. Here is a better headline : "Roach's fighters would be better off in their careers had they been trained by Rios trainer " Message to Roach STF up already you are irrelevent as long as Pac loses or under performs bercause you have no training skill !!! Just plain tired of this fool in the headlines ......
Just confirms Roach is retarded. He is slighting Pac's next opponent and uses the term "Kill". So it just goes to show another cherry picked Pac opponent. Should Pac win impressively Roach has no business talking shit let alone suggesting a PBF fight. The truth is a talented Linares went downhill under his tutelage. Once again the guy is talking himself up and using Linares as the pawn. Self promoting himself at a time he should be quietly caring for his meal ticket Pac. Pac needs to fire Freddie the Freeloader already ! Roach is showing symptoms of retardation ............

Roach is a very good trainer, and he's only showing symptoms of ParkinsonsHaving said that, any trainers opinion on their own guys is hardly objective. Linares is so much more talented than Rios, but he's really vulnerable and Rios is anything but, as well as a fair bit bigger. I'd expect it could go either way with Rios taking a beating unless/until Linares gets hurt. Maybe they are talking about making the fight assuming Rios loses to Manny, would make sense.
thats an old vid, I don't think anybody was talking about pac rios then.
