This Saturday July 9th 2011, Brandon "Bam Bam" Rios will make his first title defense against Urbano Antillon at Home Depot Center in Carson, CA for the Lightweight Championship. They say styles make fights, and these 2 warriors have the potential to make a bid for 'Fight of the Year' in 2011. Rios is coming off his championship victory over Miguel Acosta in a thriller, as Antillon came up short in defeat against Humberto "Zorrita" Soto, in a fight that many considered the "Fight of the Year" last year. Rios & Antillon compliment each other's fight style beautifully in my opinion, they only know how to come foward and throw punches, not worried about taking a punch in order to get their blows in. Although I respect and admire Urbano's relentless offensive style, I still would choose "Bam Bam" to come out victorious in his first title defense. Rios's aggressive, 'come at you' approach might prove to be 'Bam Bam's' bread & butter that will be too much for Antillon to take. Nevertheless, I'm expecting fireworks, and I'm super excited to have my ticket to watch this fight live at Home Depot Center! You can still get your tix at ticketmaster & the Home Depot Ctr. box office, if not, catch it live on Showtime Sat. Jul 9th at 7pm Pacific Time, set your DVR's because this one should be a beauty!
