Im looking forward to seeing Marquez back in action, hes always great to watch.

I really dont understand why Rios agreed to fighting at 135 again after failing to make weight against Murray. Fair enough he thought he was getting a fight with Gamboa, but after that fell through I would have thought he would make his 140 debut. It's a bit embarrising him not making the weight again IMO, I just hope he deals with Abril in style and moves up to 140 and start makes noise in the division. Rios is strong, and I think he will get through tonight, he is fun to watch and with the build up I do think this will be a good fight to watch. I wonder if Abril will want to fight with Rios, we will see. Rios needs to put on a performace tonight and move up to 140 where he needs to make an impression.

I would love to see him against Devon Alexander at 140, I thought Devon was impressive against Maidana. I think Devons boxing ability would be able to test the strength of Rios and would be a great showdown.

You almost gotta believe Rios does this shit on purpose, fuck him I hope Abril kicks his ass tonight.

Its strange, I dont understand why his promtion team would allow another fight at 135 after him not making the weight last time. However, I think Rios will be too strong for Abril and stop him. It depends how Abril will approach the fight, we will see anyway.

They should've shown more of Cristina Poncher.

Is that who she is, the top rank girl? She didn't seem too concerned about Rios' foul language did she.

Right now i'm watching Mercito Gesta vs. Oscar Cuero, 10 rounds, lightweights, I guess Mike Alvarado vs. Mauricio Herrera, junior welterweights will be up next, then Rios vs Abril. Looks like a long night of boxing...

A top rank feed..

She just interviewed Rios after the Gesta-Cuero fight. They should do a full-body view. What they have shown is pretty nice.
