I agree Rios is going to have to bums rush Abril or he's in for a long night. Upset special. Thanks. GL.
Is Hopkins vs Dawson 2 going to be another mess?

In short, I don't see Rios looking good in this fight under any circumstance outside of an early steamrolling
I've bet Abril quite large, and he'll either get rushed out early or completely dominate and expose Rios's technical flaws. I'm expecting the latter.

Thanks man. In the words of Paulie Malignaggi, "BOXING IS BULLSHIT!" However, I'll be back at it again next week

[/Qluote] If anything, it will be just the opposite. Your not taking Hops age enough into account.His good fortune of catching fighters at the right time / weight is over. He's catching Chad at prime time with his head screwed on perfectly. Mad props to Hops if he's able to fgo all 12 but I doubt it. It will be interesting to see how he behaves after 3-4 rounds when he realizes he can't win.against the typically slow starting Dawson. Chad in 9. [/Quote] CHAD in his prime? Coming of a lose to Jean Pascal and a win vs a ranked 21rst in the world fighter Adria diaconu? Thats some prime, maybe he can make 3rd on dancing with the stars.
