Timothy Bradley stops Brandon Rios, an odd sightBy Tim Starks - yardbarker.com Boxing watchers tend to see too much of one side or the other when a fighter looks good and his opponent looks bad. Both sides were in exhibition in roughly even — and extreme — measure Saturday on HBO when a nimble, disciplined Timothy Bradley, newly under the tutelage of Teddy Atlas, surprisingly stopped the previously unstopped Brandon Rios, who was so out of it he retired in the ring afterward.
Basically, Bradley looked the best he’s looked in a long, long time, like Atlas had lit a spark under him both emotionally and intellectually in the ring. Rios, who struggled to make weight, talked beforehand about losing his fire and fought like it. In theory, Rios was likely to make Bradley look good even if he was motivated, given that Bradley is an athletic boxer and Rios is a slow slugger. But given Bradley’s tendency to get wobbled, given his tendency to get sucked into a brawl, and given Rios’ tendency to overachieve, it had a chance on paper of being an excellent fight.
