Alvarez to fight Rhodes!

Rhodes has been named challenger for Alvarez, good on him!

Can Rhodes win? Not too sure on that one, he should have more success than Hatton though. Will be tough in Alvarez back yard.

I think Alvarez will have improved from the Hatton performance, he's young hungry and probably learning all the time.

Rhodes will be a natural light middle and is definitely better than Hatton. He'll nick a few rounds

I reckon Alvarez in his own back yard, improved from last time will win UD, possibly late stoppage in the mexican heat and depending on what shape Rhodes is in. Could be a cracker though.

What's everyone else think?

Boom!!!!!!!!!! Spice boy would do this fool, he has tons of experience and more hunger than the Mexican and he is smart!!!

I've been really impressed with Rhodes lately. Was excellent against Moore and Messi. Remember he has never lost at 154! This is a proper fight imo

Rhodes has had his ups and downs , however Alvarez was not top drawer against Hatton.
Ryan is harder to hit , and hits harder than Hatton , so you have to say its not impossible for this to be a close fight.
Alvarez may well continue to improve and go on to be a great , but i think he just isnt going to be up there with the very best. i mean p4p top ten , but at this time he is still a baby so who knows.

I think Rhodes will put up a decent fight. He'll go rounds and unlike Hatton I think he'll actually try and win. He never did anything with them but his best days are behind him. He's been winning of late but hasn't beaten any one worth mentioning. His last opponent was deplorable. The undefeated Brazilian who despite being 40 years old had only 11 career fights. Fighting someone like that is nothing but a waste of time. Anyway, I think Rhodes will be game. But I see him taking a beating and stopped around the 7th or 8th

pretty harsh i think

rhodes is more than a worthy challenger, his win over moore stands out but he is in very good form

its also a little harsh suggesting matthew hatton didnt try and win

Rhodes can also punch and alvarez has been shaken up before

[Dropanuke]

I reckon this fight is Taylor made for rhodes

I hope Rhodes pulls this one out and wins the title, he will certainly do better than Hatton did.

I hope Rhodes pulls this one out and wins the title, he will certainly do better than Hatton did.

Fight might not even happen with Rhodes demanding more money. Must not be all that confident about his chances
