On Aug 2nd we will see a fight that has gone under the radar but has the potential to turn into something really memorable as Diego Chaves takes on Brandon Rios at The Cosmopolitan on HBO. Earlier in the week, the bout was on shakey ground as it was uncertain if Chaves could get a visa in time to fight. It seems Bob Arum called in a few favors from U.S. Senator Harry Reid as he was essential in Chaves getting his visa. Thus the fight was saved for us fans in something I really think could mimic a epic match of Street Fighter.
On Wednesday, Top Rank held a small media workout for Brandon Rios as well as the fighters on the undercard such as current WBA champion Jessie Vargas and Olympian Jose Ramirez. Check out the media workout highlights below!
