Arena de Lutas, Sao Paolo, Brazil. Winner in the main event of the evening OI-2012 and IBF mandatory challenger local middleweight (up to 72.6 kg) Esquiva Falcao (30-0, 20 KOs) beat a middle-aged journiman from Argentina in an intermediate fight
Christian Fabian Rios (23-15-3, 7 KOs).
The one-sided fight went all the way. Only the 5th three-minute period turned out to be more or less competitive.
Falcao UD 10.
Falcao claims to fight with the unified world champion legendary Kazakhstani Gennady Golovkin, but he is unlikely to be interested in a fight. Much more likely that the 2012 Olympic silver medalist will soon contest the vacant IBF belt.
Interestingly, Falcao also has high positions in the WBO rankings. – he may be offered a duel with the yet-interim champion Zhanibek Alimkhanulyalso from Kazakhstan.
