abril sucks and if you call what he did boxing then I dont know what to say.

Over 80 clinches he just smother rios but he really capitilze on anything he done. He just survived by smother rios, so we call it boxing, if he was on his bike we will make fun of him liek we do everyone else.

keep it real people.

Rios weighed in at 139 on the second attempt...

Castillo, er, Rios came back and was 139. Official weight goes down 137. He can't win title. That's 2 fights in row he blows weight.

Capaedia

If by healthy you mean they give him a brain transplant, sure.

He genuinely had no answer for Abril's style. Rios is not a smart fighter at all, actually he always will be. You could have them fight at junior middleweight and guess what? Same dumb, lost expression on Rios' face

Precisely he was having weight problems a couple of fight prior abril.

Trying to make 135, 137 pounds rios definitely was the worse version of rios.

But lets not pretend abril fought the best version of rios.

Abril wouldn't be getting hit with the same shots Alvarado was. Rios will always look great fighters that stand in front of him, but a tall rangy guy with good defense like Abril will always trouble Rios.

Sparring 22 rounds week of fight to make weight = healthy?
