Rios v Abril: Fight Preview

Brandon Rios vs Richard Abril at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.  This was supposed to be for the vacant lightweight championship, but when Rios failed to make weight in his 2nd consecutive fight, he forfeited the chance to fight for the title.  Now only Abril has the chance to win the title with an upset victory over Rios.  I expect Rios to do the same thing he did in his last fight & work his way into the inside & disrupt Abril's boxing chance of pulling the upset.  Richard's only chance is to try to out box Brandon and to not get into an exchange match with him, if he does, you cans assure Bam Bam will make quick work of Abril.  These two have been getting under each other's skin since the get-go.  I expect Rios to eventually fight his fight and bring furious pressure to Abril.  Also in action will be Mike Alvarado vs Mauricio Herrera, Mercito Gesta vs Oscar Cuero.  In a split-site main event, Ring Legend Juan Manuel Marquez will face Ukranian, Serihy Fedchenko in New Mexico City Arena in Mexico.  The fights will be televised by HBO Pay-Per-View promoted by Top Rank.  I will be in attendance at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas for the fights!

Noez Fight Predictions:
Rios defeats Abril in 6 rounds (TKO)
Alvarado wins by 5 rd (TKO)
Gesta wins by Decision

Juan Manuel Marquez wins by 9th round (KO)
