He can take some hellacious shots. But there will be a point in his career where his chin just can't take that many big shots before giving in.

I think at 140 Rios will have to alter his style. He is going to have to take less clean bombs. Or else with bigger guys, that chin very well may get dented.
Rios got nailed with some big shots by Acosta and took them well, but sooner or later Rios will face a big puncher who knocks him on his ass, it's not out of the realm of possibility that Abril has his moments Saturday night.

Cheers Capt.
