Former world champion Brandon Rios, should he beat Ramon Alvarez on Saturday night, could land himself a clash with fast-rising welterweight prospect Josh Kelly, according to promoter Eddie Hearn. Rios will collide with Alvarez in Kansas as part of the Matchroom USA card which features heavyweight contender Jarrell 'Big Baby' Miller in the main event.
Rios (34-4-1, 25 KOs) will return for the first time since getting knocked out by Danny Garcia in brutal fashion in February 2018.

Rios should avoid that at all costs. Stick to fighting older guys, not young lions.
