Brandon Rios: "**** Marcos Maidana. I don't like that mother****er. He is a rat."

[punchr]

Apparently, Rios feels betrayed by Maidana. He claims the Argentine boxer gave inside information away to then opponent Diego Chaves. Maidana was Rios' sparring partner in preparation for the Chaves fight. Rios says Maidana knew about his injured arm and told Diego Chaves all about it.

After the fight, Rios is seen in an arm sling with Maidana.


HBO boxing announcer Jim Lampley said during the Rios-Chaves broadcast that Diego's best friend is Maidana.

In the fight, Chaves targeted Rios' injured arm. He wrestled with Rios, pulling on his arm, trying to injure it more.

Maidan would **** Rios up.

It bothers me how young, but how blatantly punchy Rios is.

Trust me, he was like that before he was taking punches.

EDIT: Oh, he didn't actually say Maidana. I recall Garcia said he had several argentine fighters in his gym.

He doesn't even say maidana... He says he was sparring with a guy from Argentina.

How do you put quotes around something he didn't even say?

[John Locke]

He's not talking about Maidana

[SN!PER]

Chaves is a dirty bastard of a fighter.

I don't know who told him, but I would love to see Rios vs. Maidana.
