Review: 2012-04-14, pretty fight between Brandon Rios and Richard Abril but it is not enough to get three stars (fight ended by split decision). The undefeated Brandon Rios (29-0-1) entered as the No.2 lightweight in the world while Richard Abril (17-2-1) entered as the No.10. Rios vs Abril is valid for the interim WBA World lightweight title (Rios failed to make the lightweight limit so title not at stake for him). Watch the video!

2011 best BOXING fight – Brandon Rios vs Miguel Acosta – fight Video
Review: 2011-02-26, exciting fight with three knockdowns between Brandon Rios and Miguel Acosta; at the moment it is the most beautiful boxing fight of 2011 and could be a candidate for Fight of the Year 2011. Miguel Acosta (28-3-2) was the holder of the WBA World lightweight title, won in 2009 against Urbano Antillon and then defended last year versus Paulus Moses (both fighting won by ko); while the undefeated Brandon Rios (26-0-1) seven years younger than Acosta, it was the first chance to became world champion. Acosta vs Rios is valid for the WBA World lightweight title. Watch the video!
