Comments Thread For: Abril: Rios Not a Modern Mexican, Disrespectful, Big Mouth

[-Spinal-]

so Rios called someone a racial slur and endorses when people do it as well?

hmm didn't know that

You're right, Broner and Rios are not alike.

Rios made fun of Freddie Roach's Parkinson's Disease.

No one can get that low.

I agree with him, I like watching Rios a lot, but you dont see Marquez, Morales, this type of stuff at press conferences. After all he is from Oxnard lol, and he is more of a Chicano. Either way he still backs it up.

Slow your roll buddy. If you're new to boxing... i'll forgive you.

Brandon Rios is the Mexican Adrien Broner. Yet Mexican posters **** on Broner, but turn around and root for Rios.

But it's alright because these particular posters also call George Zimmerman a hero.

How is Rios the Mexican Adrien Broner?

[JSS]

They let this fool Richard Abril (17W, 2L) fight Rios and not let Gesta (24W, 0L) have a chance? Really? What's up with that? Gesta and Rios already have a beef to sell tickets, like Rios said,"...if he wants it to be a Filipino vs. Mexican thing; let's do it!" Let Gesta fight this Abril character first and the winner gets Rios. Com'n Uncle Bob!!!

Sr. also had a mouth on him

Big mouth like Broner.

Big mouth like Broner.

Lots of fighters have a "big mouth". lol Calling Brandon the "Mexican Adrien Broner" is very vague. Thanks for clearing that up.

Not a bad idea, but Rios isn't waiting around at lightweight to fight either of those guys. According to Brandon, he was only staying at 135 to fight Gamboa.

Don't let Abril's record fool you. He's not a great fighter, but his record is misleading. Richard lost SDs to Hank Lundy and Breidis Prescott. (Many seem to think Abril beat Lundy, at least.) In his last fight, he beat Miguel Acosta. A lot of people underestimated Orlando Salido, based on his record. We've seen how he turned out....
