    In Finland!! Abrils wba title on the line.

    Any thoughts? Massive step up for Tatli and this really surprised me. I believe Tatli has a chance but Abril could be too much for him at the moment?

    However this is fking cool and great thing for finnish boxing

    Tatli KO'd my countrymen Anyanwu in one of the sickest KO's I've ever seen.
    Now Helenius is gone, Tatli is one of the finnish hopes. but I doubt if he is stong enough to beat Abril, who is a couple of steps up for all competition he has faced.

    Huge step up agreed. Tatli looks the goods but Abril is a tough fight for anyone- even top already proven fighters like Vazquez and Crawford.

    outboxed? He was holding like a octopus.

    Rios derserved a DQ win. The decision was justice.

    To be honest I don't know what fight were you watching cause Abril wasn't holding at all. He used his shoulder defense very well when Rios got close and that was the key to victory. Rios couldnt land anything. It wasnt entertaining and I know why people dislike him but cmon, you are talking about holding? Watch it again mate.

    No never mad even if he did hold 84 times until ref said break. He made the Rios fight boring with all the holding and running and he lost because of it. However, had he not held he would have been knocked out so there ya go.

    There were 84 breaks called by the ref for Abril holding. Abril should have been given more than just a warning. The ref was just as responsible for the boring fight as Abril was.
