no idea my man. it doesnt matter he is on a top rank card fighting a top rank boy, so the home cooking was done long before they entered the ring. rios won one round for god's sakes, thats right, one round on my cards

Me too I give him 1 round. Everyone should have known the fix was in when the fight was announced. Arum has too much money invested in Rios to let Abril show up out of nowhere and ruin his investment.

I'm not sure. Gamboa is smaller and shorter. Abril won because of his style but his height helped in my opinion. Rios didn't know what to do against a taller boxer. Gamboa would have fought a different fight thus a different outcome. I think that the fight would have been a toss up to be honest. Either guy could knock each other out. Rios would only be able to do so because Gamboa would be smaller. I don't picture Rios being able to knock out someone like Alvarado or Guerrero.
