    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.

    Ive not seen the weigh in myself but I reckon this all comes down to how hard Rios actually tried to make weight. If he genuinely tried and failed then he should be very weakened and Id give murray a decent chance of winning by late stoppage if he can take the early barrage.
    If Rios didnt really try, knowing this is his last fight at the weight anyway then he'll be very strong and John will be in a world of hurt.

    Rios despite being IMHO a total douchebag of a person still wins in a UD. Here's hoping I'm wrong though.. Rios would still be pushing the action most of the fight. Hopefully I'm wrong and Murray wins via an upset UD. Don't think he can KO Rios specially with Rios being a douche about his weight.

    I guess Rios' immediate family must be the extent of his fan club. He had no defenders on the thread. Surprisingly, making fun of a Freddie's Parkinsons Disease and doing your best to act like a classless thug does not ingratiate you with a lot of people.)

    That being said, humpty dumpty will stop Murray. He is has power and he punches with bad intentions and knows how to cut the ring off. I think he is beatable but I don't think Murray has the skill set.

    THat won't last. He's an exciting, skilled fighter and he'll be a huge draw pretty soon.
