Max Boxing – Sub Lead – Murodjon Akhmadaliev vs. Ronny Rios

Particulars: June 25, 2022, at Tech Port Enviornment, San Antonio, Texas (DAZN) it’s the little guys with dynamite, Murodjon Akhmadaliev vs. Ronny Rios Quezada, Tremendous Bantamweights. 

Background: Murodjon Akhmadaliev is an efficient fighter about whom nice issues are forecasted. 

His opponent is a body-punching idiot and stable professional. Depend on DAZN’s over-stimulated protection crew to shout loud and lengthy that Akhmadaliev was damage to the physique vs. alternative opponent Jose Velasquez of Chile to hype this bout.

True, however this ‘damage’ lasted one spherical; Akhmadaliev recovered shortly towards Velasquez. It appears illogical, however I feel low-weight fighters can take their opponent’s finest pictures higher than fighters at greater weights. 

Fighter’s Grades: (Velocity, Energy, Protection, Attain, Age, Stamina, Expertise)

Murodjon Akhmadaliev: B B B+ B B B+ B (B+ 3.1)

Ronnie Rios Quezada: C+ C+ C B- C- B- B (B 2.4)

Actuality test: Akhmadaliev, 28 in November, ought to be and will have been, moved extra aggressively. His first professional battle was simply 4 years and three months in the past. I don’t but regard him as an elite prospect, however there’s so much to love.

To the great, he has wonderful abilities; some wonderful ‘quicks’ when throwing combos -though I don’t know that towards elite fighters, he’ll be capable of throw six to seven combos as he did versus Velasquez. Even should you assume amateurs don’t translate to execs – and these days the standard pondering is it does, 350 novice fights and Bronze on the 2016 Olympics has to be important.  

Akhmadaliev,27, has excellent footwork and nice side-to-side motion. 

He’s courageous-when he was damage to the physique vs. Velasquez, he turned the tables and attacked the Chilean’s midsection.  

He’s a stable professional, a pleasant man with a screwed-on head and wonderful coaching and administration. Like a number of excellent Japanese European fighters, he has mastered throwing “why not,” good high quality punches that might or might not land – assume Lomachenko.  

He lacks world-class pace. I’m not offered on his energy (good, not nice) He must battle much more, even by in the present day’s “go slower” promotional requirements.  

Rios,32, fights patiently, has a wonderful physique assault (most of his energy punches are physique pictures), and has good fundamentals. His footwork is stable – however sluggish, which I assume is stunning at 122 kilos. 

Rios has gained his final 4 fights in succession, but in addition has three losses, two by way of KO/TKO.   

Struggle and prediction: Texas is such a horrible place to have fights, usually sullied by completely corrupt judges and incompetent, grandstanding referees, somebody ought to – SERIOUSLY – write the Governor and Athletic Fee to insist fights there be discontinued. 

For those who’re a professional gambler looking for that ‘edge,’ that B.S. upset juice, Texas is the place to look.

That apart, I feel Akhmadaliev ought to be capable of cease Rios, taking the judges out of the equation. But when even a couple of rounds are shut – please God, no extra black eyes for boxing by way of corrupt judging.  

Murodjon Akhmadaliev TKO Ronnie Rios Quezada, 9-10.
