    Rios just twittered me back. He said that Mitchell didn't want to fight him and so his manager chose the next thing which is fair enough at 135.

      So Mitchell and Murray are his only options?

        This fight should last less than the Antillon one.

        I want to see Rios fighting Miguel Vazquez though. If he wins that one he catapults himself into the elite fighters of boxing

          Well, who else is good enough at 135 who can give him solid competition? Katsidis would have been my number #1 preference but he's ****ing with Ricky Burns.

            How is Murray the next thing?

              Ask him why his camp turned down Molina.

                Well this should be entertaining while it lasts.

                Rios should win though.

                  I think Murray and Molina are on the same level. It's a little better then vs Martinez and obviously not as good as vs Mitchell which always seemed like wishful thinking for an undercard fight.

                  Fans are too jaded. Its a fine fight and 135 is a shallow division.

                    Ok thanks. Who would you give the edge to in power and chin between Murray and Molina?

                      Mitchell chose to stay home where he makes vastly more money fighting there than what they had for Rios' 12/3 opponent

                      don't blame him one bit
