    This is yet another reason why I would never bet on a fight. Ever. Boxing can't let one remotely important fight happen without controversy. Someway, somehow, every fight these days gets f***ed up.

    If I were Tim Bradley or Miguel Cotto, I'd be horribly depressed right now, because even if those two fight a tremendous fight they probably have no chance at a decision. If one of those guys gets robbed, I'm probably done with boxing for a while.
    And its another reason to not buy a ppv fight

    • Close? Maybe only on the judge cards.

      Abril dominated this fight.

        and Abril was holding Brandon an awful lot during the second half of the fight
        Abril stayed in the pocket and let rios throw all that garbage which did no damage!!
        Rios was so frustrated he started throwing shots to abrils Back and to the back of his head! Rios lost and lost bad plain and simple

              He did, but the fault goes both ways and I note that Rios continued to stay close to him and continued to charge in, there was no distance, and Rios either smothered his own punches because he refused to create distance or the punches were blocked. Even Abril wasn't thrilled with his own performance because he knows the network execs who were there, and there was even someone from Showtime, weren't happy with the lack of action in the "grudge" main event.

              • Just when I thought Top Rank vindicates themselves with a coupla good undercards in Gesta-Cuera, and a possible FOTY candidate in Alvarado-Herrera.... then this shyt of a robbery in Rios-Abril happens.

                  well we saw mensah who was the underdog against katsidis and who was fighting in a pro katsidis crowd get the right decision. But I guess not alot of money or anything was on the line for that fight.
