Given Rios' weight difficulty, could Abril beat him?

    Its possible, but I'd say only because of the weight and anything can happen to a guy with Rios' awful defense.

    Not likely though.

    haven't seen Abril at all but lots of people gave Murray a chance last time. Is there a limit to how much Rios can weigh in today?

    A lot of guys had difficulty making weight however, found a way to make it count and won anyway.

    I doubt it. A Rios victory should be a relative certainty here. The weight fluctuations and weight draining will catch up with him unless he starts to live properly / moves up to a more suitable division. I can't see it being tonight. Rios should stop Abril around the 10th.

    I'll be putting every penny I own on a Rios win.

    You think your neighbours bad? He is nothing compared to the thunder I will bring if I lose this bet.

    Cleverly beat Bellew :happy (Sorry If I just ruined the ending :fire)

    But still :twisted:

    If John Murray couldn't beat a weight drained Rios then I highly doubt Abril will be able to pull it off. Unless Rios is substantially worse than his last fight. I again see Rios struggling though, against a fighter he shouldn't be struggling with. I'm putting vcash down on the over.

    If you lose the bet drop me a PM and we'll rob and possibly **** my neighbour. Put the money on when BoxNation will show the Clev - Bellew repeat. Once you win you'll have your money back, and I'll have the videos of me taking an orbital sander to my neighbours testicles to masturbate to.

    I put it on the under :-(


    Ilesey and now yourself, will be held accountable if I lose ALL my money :fire

    (So much **** to pay for that I can't afford, so I've resorted to betting large sums of money :nut)

    How much did you put on the under? This could be truly interesting for you.

    I'm not silly enough to put real money on the under :lol:

    I've got my V-cash on the under, and all my real cash on an any method win for Rios. (Well, it's all on Fury first, so assuming he wins, it'll be reinvested in Rios)
