Comments Thread For: Brandon Rios: I'm Ready To Show What I Can Do At 140

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Brandon Rios was enjoying the best year of his career until 2011 until he fell prey to the scale. His failure to make weight for last December’s showdown with John Murray cost him a lightweight belt as well as consideration for the Fighter of the Year race.

The unbeaten Californian still went on to win his bout, stopping Murray in 11 rounds for his third win of the year, all inside the distance.

However, it wasn’t the knockout trend that continued in his last bout, but his struggles at the scales. Rios failed to make weight for his vacant title fight with Richard Abril, a fight that saw the 26-year old escape with a controversial split decision win this past April. [Click Here To Read More]

I like Alvarado but in reality he is a glorified club fighter. Rios will hammer him which is why arum made the fight. Can't wait to watch.

You did let the boxing fans down, Rios. By not making weight like a professional should.
