After the Peterson fight, it was easy to see that Brandon Rios had the style to always put up exciting fights. Man, did he put on a hell of a performance tonight. I didn’t think he would be able to last much longer after four rounds, because Acosta was hitting him with some very hard shots. I mean VERY hard shots. Nonetheless, he maintained his pressure and wore a tough opponent down.

Great fight. Great performance.

"Mini Margarito" is going to be a tough out for anybody at LW.

I expect Soto to avoid him again and fight Demarco instead.

It is what it is.

You think he'd fight his cousin?

Great fight, Rios put on some great pressure and took some HARD shots from Acosta. Fight of the year so far. Great all round action.

And man, Robert Garcia, he's on a roll.
