That's a choice he made. If he didn't duck Dervenchenko and decided to take the belt from Saunders he would be cemented undisputed at middleweight with the defense record 1st ballot HOF.. He decides to face Canelo and get his ass whooped instead and now hes just beltless with no career defining wins :manny: Shoulda woulda coulda

It's called PRIZE fighting.

*Pac voice* It's MOT

Money over Titles

RIOS AND SOTO CLASH IN MEXICAN SHOWDOWN
Former World rulers clash in Tijuana on February 23

Matchroom Boxing USA will promote its first show in Mexico as Brandon Rios and Humberto Soto will clash in an all-Mexican affair at the Municipal Auditorium Fausto Gutierrez Moreno in Tijuana on Saturday February 23, live on DAZN in the US and on Sky Sports in the UK.

TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW PRICED FROM $165 (MEXICAN PESOS) HERE

Rios vs. Soto is in association with Zanfer and Paco presents.

Former World Lightweight king Rios (35-4-1 26KOs) returned to winning ways in style in November, stopping Ramon Alvarez in the ninth round of their high octane clash in Mulvane, near KS, pocketing a 26th win inside the distance in his 40th pro fight.

‘Bam Bam’ will look to further his claims for title shots in 2019, and the American-Mexican believes the love from the fans will roar him to victory and onto his goal of regaining his World title stats as he boxes in Mexico for the first time since September 2009.

Former two-weight World ruler Soto (68-9-2 37KOs) has other ideas though, with the Mexican hero heading into the bout on the back of two wins on his return to the ring in 2018. Soto, Los Mochis born but whom now calls Tijuana home, admits his glittering career is on the line on February 23, and that means ‘La Zorrita’ will put everything on the line against Rios.

“I'm grateful to Eddie Hearn for getting me on a card early in the year,” said Rios. “I want to stay active so I can get closer to my goal and becoming a Champion once again.

“Man, I'm excited to fight in Mexico, I haven't fought there in ten years. The Mexican fanbase has supported me since day one and everything I give in the ring is for my family and my fans, who have never let me down.

“I've been staying busy in the gym, so I'm ready to give the fans a great fight. The fights the fans love to see!”

“I cannot wait for February 23,” said Soto. “I am so excited for this great opportunity in a city that feels like my second home.

“I know that this fight is a 'do or die,' that is why I am very motivated and training really hard. We know that we have a tough opponent in Brandon Rios, a true warrior, but so am I. This will be a war and I will be ready to win!”

what an odd fight :heh:.are we back in 2010-2011? :russ:

um canelo was the lineal champion....thats why GGG went after him..it wasn't no regular ass fight....even if he took the WBO belt from BJS, Canelo was still the lineal champ in that division thanks to Cotto's bullshyt

He couldve got the belt from Saunders became undisputed and Canelo would still be there

Trying to KO Canelo and getting beat instead of Saunders 1st become undisputed and then Canelo is why he don’t deserve 1st ballot
