    Rios has no class, at the press conference on Thursday after refusing to shake Murray's hand he said
    "I saw fear in his eyes...that's why it's got me so hyped, because right now, I hate him. I'm ready to battle, I'm not ready to be your friend. I'm not here to shake your hand. As my opponent, you should be the same way. I'm going to talk shit to you, so you should talk shit back to me"

    Apparently Murray and Joe Gallagher thought it was hilarious. Now we know why he was so rattled. Shaking hands is not what you do with friends it's a sign of sportsmanship and an agreement to get down to business, something Rios seems ill prepared for.

    Rios is a ferkin' nitwit, too bad Murray won't be able to make this clown pay.

    Apparently Rios consumed nothing - save for 4 ounces of water - in the 5 days leading up to the weigh in. That doesn't sound healthy at all, surely this will be Rios' last fight down at 135 if he's struggled that badly to make weight.

    Who said that, cos thats bullshit. Covering up for the fact he didnt make weight, trying to make it sound like it wasnt humanly possible for him too. Honestly speaking he'd likely be dead if he did that, let alone ready for a fight.

    Rios has been struggling to make weight for while so it's understandable.. still not professional but it's not the first time it's happened with fighters..

    Rios could be 133, 135, 137 or whatever, Murray was brought in as a stepping stone and he should be thankful that he's even getting a fight with him..

    Rios destroys him either way.. He might even do it faster now..

    I hope Murray smashes him. Don't forget Finito, Murray gave Mitchell a real argument and you rate him, so this ain't gonna be a walk in the park for Rios. Rios is not a million miles better than Murray but whatever happens Rios has already damaged his own reputation. He won't get as many plaudits thrown his way for beating a guy so much smaller than him and Rich your right, i smell an upset. The partisan Puerto Rican crowd will get behind Murray not Rios, as Fatboy is part of Margaritto's camp .Murray breaks him down midway, TKO Murray between rounds 7-9 .

    I won't be shocked if Murray takes him, I smell an upset. I thought Rios would beat him easy but after seeing the weigh in I'm not to sure.
