    Just no, they are nothing alike. Gatti was very vulnerable but he did have solid skills, and was able to pull fights out with one punch, that's a lot of why he was in so many great fights I think. Rios is always in tear ups but he's never really come back to win a fight as was said, and he has no skills. He's perhaps been in one great fight which will be the highlight of his career almost certainly, the first with Alvarado, who actually has a lot more in common with Gatti to me. If Rios didn't have a great chin he'd be a complete bum imo, and he will be before long.

    Other than the fact that he does not have as many fans, one punch KO power, come back from the brink of defeat and had loads of classic wars you could be right.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Rios is much closer to the fatty version of Yori Boy Campos. Gatti was a man, also smarter boxer early on and came with respect.
