not taking anything away from rioses performances but antillion was getting pasted by humberto soto in his last fight he got the **** beat out of him by acosta, the acosta alone took allot out of him i think antillion is wiped out now he needs to retire, i think this fight can really look deceptive to the untrained eye,
He fought very very well against soto. Rios now has one of the best lw resume's actively. Knocked out peterson, acosta and antillion. Hope he fights soto next but I doubt soto takes the fight.
He didn't knock out Peterson. Peterson hit Rios in the nuts about 2394838492843982 times and got DQ'd.
Soto Rios please. I'm youtube'ing Soto's fight with Antillon. I think I watched him fight Diaz when he first moved up to LW, but all I remember was he wasn't as good. Hoping Soto was just lacking a hard training camp, cause he is fun to watch.
Peterson quit. Rather than take a knee he went low. Rios kept coming forward and peterson kept going low. Might be a dq on paper but he made him quit.
I would say your eye is pretty untrained. Truth is, he was tied on two of the judge's scorecards at the time of stoppage in the Acosta fight. He was coming on strong in the later rounds and got caught with a devastating uppercut. He got up, but the ref waived it off. Against Soto, he was in a FOTY type fight, and was in that fight til the end. Against Rios, he was simply beat by a bigger, stronger guy. To say that he was shot coming into the Rios fight is simply untrue. He just got beat by a bigger and stronger guy.
