The 25-year-old has also enjoyed high-profile wins over Anthony Peterson and Miguel Acosta and starts as the 1/12 favourite.Murray will give it his all but is likely to be outclassed by Rios, with another stoppage on the cards after he was put down by Mitchell in the eighth. Rios is 2/9 to win via KO, with Murray 13/2 to cause what would be the biggest upset of the weekend.
