Would Abril still dominate Rios if Rios was 100 percent healthy by not being weak?

    This question is for all Cuban fans that loves to defend their cuban fighters. Atleast Lara fought like a man vs Williams while Abril fought like a lion was coming at him. But honestly would Abril still dominate a healthy Rios in which Rios makes the weight easy? I bet most will say "He'll still win easy"

    Why are there so many rios abril threads, every few seconds one pops up.

    Abril still wins, but in a close fight

    Of course. Abril has skills and a lot of experience. He was very calm from the beginning of the fight. Rios is a very limited boxer, power is not enough.

    Rios did not lose nearly every round in the fight because he was weight drained, he lost nearly every ****ing round because he is not good enough to beat abril. END THREAD. And Abril isnt even that good.

    Of course u say that cause youre a dumb a$$ cuban defending cuban fighters. Rios clearly look really weak in which shows. That wasnt a healthy rios.

    Rios has fought boxers before in peterson and acosta in which he beat both of them in a impressive way.

    Rios got dominated by a guy who was in his face and Rios couldn't know him out when he said he would

    A total "unknown" schooled rios and arum made sure Rios won

    he came in 4 pounds over weight meaning he didnt even try and then gained 15 over night...how far off 100 percent could he have been

    i mean maybe he underestimated him or just had an off night but i dont think weight was a problem

    Acosta and Peterson were both the same height (Costa was a tad bit shorter) and Rios had the weight advantage.
