Highly respected trainer Robert Garcia believes his fighter, former champion "Bam Bam" Brandon Rios, will walk away with a knockout win in his upcoming fight against World Boxing Organization welterweight champion Timothy Bradley.

The world-class boxing coach clearly believes that "Bam Bam" can put down Bradley when they clash on Nov. 7 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Boxing Scene reported. The veteran trainer reportedly told ESPN Deportes that Rios is preparing well for his showdown with Bradley, including being strict on his diet. The amount of discipline and dedication he is showing is actually the same thing he did before his clash against Mike Alvarado, whom he destroyed via a third round stoppage victory in January, per BoxRec.

However, Garcia just wants people to give Rios his due when he steps on the ring and put on a good fight against the WBO champ, whose only loss was to the eight-division world champion and Filipino icon Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao.

"It does not bother me that people criticize Brandon Rios, because some people will always criticize. They said he is not disciplined and has no defense but when he knocked out Alvarado he still heard criticism for it and there were no good reviews for Brandon. Now if he beats Bradley, I hope they give him credit for it and they don't tell us that [Rios won] because [Bradley] was finished. I'm hoping for a spectacular knockout victory," the trainer said.

Bradley, on the other hand, feels it was actually Rios's camp which is thinking that he is already "damaged goods," noted a separate report from Boxing Scene, especially right after his June bout with Jessie Vargas at the StubHub Center in California, per BoxRec. Although he won via a unanimous decision, he appeared hurt in the last few seconds of the last round, Fight News informed.

"He feels that since I got hurt with Jessie Vargas, he feels if he lands a big shot on me that I'll get hurt and he'll be able to finish me. They think that I'm pretty much damaged goods," Bradley said.

The 32-year-old boxer reportedly vows that everyone who feels that way will see that it is not true as he aims to prove his worth against Rios and his critics.

Yet, Rios, 29, actually commends his performance against Vargas and even considers him the second-best fighter he is set to face in his entire career, after "Pacman," World Boxing News noted.
