Juan Manuel Marquez Vs Brandon Rios... July 14th!

The fight is not 100% yet but I'd say it's almost definite to happen seeing as everyone wants it to happen. That's right, we could be seeing one of the greatest lightweight match-ups in recent years which many people are already saying is a certain 'Fight Of The Year'.

Boxing fans were very disappointed when the highly anticipated clash between Rios and Yuriorkis Gamboa was cancelled due to Gamboa backing out of the fight; but now they have been given something that will most likely prove to be even better.

It has been reported that Top Rank are already in talks with Dallas Cowboys officials about having the boxing match at Cowboys Stadium.
There is already another bout planned for the July 14th event which consists of Nonito Donaire Vs Cristian Mijares which will likely be slid into the co-headline slot with the Rios and Marquez bout if it is arranged.

Bob Arum has said that he wants the fight and it's almost definite as long as Marquez and Rios win their fights on April 14th, which should not prove too hard as many people believe that both of their opponents are not on their level.
