"My managers and promoter are looking at November or December.  Either way I will be ready to go," Rios stated.

As for who he would like to face, Rios sad he is open to facing anyone and said that he and Mike Alvarado still have a score to settle.

"Of course I would fight him again. It's 1-1. That fight will always be there. If it's next then let's do it. I will fight whoever they put in front of me," Rios told BoxingScene.com.
