Boxing needs fights like this. Brandon's more proven but I believe Ruslan's got the goods to cause an upset.
Is Ruslan aligned with Top Rank? I don't know where Rios goes after the Alvarado rematch except the winner of this fight or maybe Herrera or Breidis Prescott. Arum will need to break the Golden Boy blockade if Rios is going to get any fights at all. If it happened it would be marginally more competitive than the Urbano Antillon fight. Speaking of which, what's happened to Antillon? He hsn't fought since he lost to Rios.
After Rios beats Alvarado again, it seems pretty likely that he'll be matched against the winner tonight. In other words, count on Bradley-Rios next. And not sure what happened to Antillion, but the guy just isn't that good. He's a Katsidis level fighter.
Well lets wait and see. Rios will walk through Bradleys shots and ultimately Bradley isn't tough enough to keep Rios off him.
you're crazy son! Rios couldn't walk through weak LW Abril! Hows he gonna gonna walk through TImmy? Timmy is strong as ****, he would outmuscle Rios in close quarters whenever they got there and just box the **** out of him. I don't even like Bradley one bit but he would embarrass Rios. Rios went life and death with Alvarado for **** sakes a C level dude! Bradley would box circles around him, it would be easy work.
