    true. well, I don't think this has anything to do with Rios losing this fight though.

    Acosta is just very underrated, a decent counter-puncher, and heavy hands. he's going to win a tough war.

    I think his Dad training is a very good thing

    I agree I spend 2-3 days a week at Azteca Boxing and I see the same fighter work with 3 different trainers for 3 different things. If anything this addition may be to motivate him psychologically.

    There was something that Brandon felt his Dad Manuel could help him with. Manuel trains a tight defensive style with short straight punches. He is a wizard in bringing the best out of a fighter. The first punch Brandon learned to throw he learned from his father. It was time to get back to the basics.
