I think this might be the first Brandon Rios match that I'm watching in full and I don't know, but if this is the future of the Holy Rank, I can understand why they protect Pacquaio so much.

QUOTE (Cheesey1 @ Apr 14 2012, 11:10 PM)  If Abril threw the jab more often and with venom I'd definitely give him a very good chance, but he's not doing that enough. Or at least he isn't for this round that I finally started paying attention to. Man Rios is leaving his head out there (expecting a phone booth fight), but Abril is giving up his height to set up a nasty right hand...which will land with force sooner or later. |

Rios is there to be hit. If Abril was a bit stronger and didn't mostly stand there, Rios is there for jab led combos and a move to the side. Even the body could be punished.

This shit reminds me of Cloud/Campillo. Rios has made NO adjustments, as evidenced by the fact that he still throws those useless overhand pitty pat punches that keep landing on Abril's glove when they're in a clinch. Rios isn't first AT ALL...

Man Abril looks like one of those Whoville characters from The Grinch movie (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
