Rios is ridiculously skilled on the inside.

Alvarado not to shabby on the inside either, Brandon just had more fire power.
Kid must hit like a mule, Alvarado's face began to break up almost instantly.

 

he digs and disguises his hook well on the inside

 

No he isnt

Offensively, he puts his shots together well, switches up his attack well & has decent power but he is a little one-paced & predictable, look how easily Abril was able to neutralise him on the inside.

Defensively, he isnt that good. His guard is leaky, his head movement & reflexes arent anything special. He relies too much on his chin which will eventually be his downfall.

 

Exactly, it showed since the Abril fight when he completely... uhhh dismantled Abril's inside defense... :rofl

 

Alvarado tried the philly shell D like Abril did and Rios did the exact same thing. Move both hands. Don't care if you land clean or not. Just keep moving them. Alvarado couldn't handle that activity...especially to the body.

 

Cant argue with a word of this

Ridiculously skilled is a strong categorisation

 

His guard is fantastic. Alvarado's jab was blocked nearly every time. He only got hit clean when he opened up from too far out.

Abril... it's October bro.
(Get it... Time to let it go)

 

He is a good inside fighter but ridiculously skilled I don't know, Abril stayed on the inside for much of the fight and Rios still struggled.

 

Why are you so quick to dismiss his loss to Abril? A loss is a loss, you know. Especially a loss like that one, when he couldn't do ****. When the fight finished Abril looked like he had been hanging out at the hotel bar.
