The fight met everyone expectations in terms of a war.And cleared any doubts about how Rios will carry his power and chin to 140.Last night Rios was fighting a stronger and bigger guy and again he went toe to toe absorbing monster shots .Robert Garcia didn't have much to tell him in his corner,other that keep him ready,tend his wounds and send him back to the arena.Brandon is a ****ing gladiator,a freak of nature. We know he's limited in terms of boxing abilities,we know he can be outboxed like Abril did.But whoever gets in the ring to outbox him must know there are gonna be the longest 12 rds of his career.Arum should keep matching Rios with sluggers,Alavarado was perfect like I always said.
Rios had the perfect limited slugger in front of him last nite.Made for a great fight but Alvarado ain't Pacman.Pac would school the **** out of Rios.
