Comments Thread For: Brandon Rios Could Return Sooner, Hand is Not Broken

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The WBA lightweight champion Brandon Rios (27-0, 20KOs) is capable of making his ring return earlier than previously expected. This past Saturday in Las Vegas, Rios knocked out Miguel Acosta in the tenth round to capture the WBA title. Following the win, it was initially thought that Rios had broken his right hand. After further review, the hand was found to be badly bruised, and not broken. Rios' timetable, regarding the amount of time needed to heal the hand and other fight related injuires, moves from 4-5 months to 1-2 months.

Rios needs to drop the "margo style" or he isn't going to have a very long career. He need to work in defense, head movement, jabs,...etc. Improving these areas will greatly enhance his chances of continuing his unbeaten record.

And i don't really like the guy, but he's got a LOT of potential to really make it.

this is good news....and question, are hand breaks very prone to re-breaking again?? cause i know malignaggi has broken his right hand like 4-5 times and i know theres some other fighters like that

Agreed.. but Garcia said in an interview that Rios is going to stick with his style.
