rios better be in great condition because he'll be chasing acosta all night and he needs to throw a lot of punches,acosta is a good boxer and has power,rios needs to go to the body a lot and early to slow acosta down,it's going to be a tough fight for brandon

The one thing I was most impressed by Rios and something hi style of fighter really needs to be successful is the accuracy he displayed.

It seemed as though every punch vs Peterson was on point and that is really important when facing fighters who are better boxers and have more speed.

When he throws he makes them count, I really was impressed with that. This should be an excellent fight.
