    saw a few pics of the weighin and Rios looks drained and sick. Antillon in shape. I know itll be crazy but maybe well have an upset tomorrow.

    :-( It looks very fit to me. The addition of a nutrition and stamina coach has really helped Brandon. Rios will re-hydrate nicely by tomorrow night.

    That's because he is robust for the division.

    I thought the same when he fought Acosta but he came through fine there.

    He looks drained indeed but always looks that way at the weigh in. Antillon looks in suberb shape but I can't see the upset. Just wanna see a war!!! And a war it will be!!

    He always looks drained at weigh ins. Just his bone structure makes him look that way, hes fine.

    I've yet to see him not look like that. But it would make sense that he's drained he's pretty damn big for a LW. He seemed to gusto through it against Acosta though.

    He says he's gonna defend that title for a while, but man I really wanna see him take on Maidana @ 140 that'll be a real slugfest.... neither fighter will take a step bac they will just stand in front of each other and bang all night til one finally gets KTFO!!

    Doesn't look bad to me either. If memory serves I've seen Rios looking much worse before.
