    Gomez was winning the fight on points, but Alvarez was landing the harder shots.

    Fuckin ref stopped it at the first sign of trouble when Gomez was still defending himself, though he was probably headed for an inevitable TKO loss.

    Still, what the hell is Archie doin struggling with Alfonzo Gomez !?

    I say let Mayorga have a shot at Alvarez. Not saying Mayorga would win, but he'd sure be a big step up from anyone Alvarez has faced, aside from maybe a shot Baldomir.

    Alvarez and Chavez are both hype jobs, Chavez more so.

    Alvarez has a lot more natural talent and punching power. No doubt about it.

    agree to a point, i think Alvarez has more potential than Chavez, but he doesn't fully dedicate himself

    he seemed to only be going through the motions against Gomez, not really even trying to get his offense started, could be the fame getting to his head seeing how much attention the kid gets, but yea a Mayorga/Alvarez fight would be good while it lasts, seeing how he'll at least force Canelo to work, but at this point IMO Angulo and Cotto take him

    It does seem like he was somewhat bored i guess. It's like he knows that all he has to do is turn it up, and he can get his guy out with a few big shots. It may be working now, but i believe that it's creating bad habits. I want to see how he responds in his next fight.

    I'd like to see him against Shawn Porter. I think they have the same skill set and experience level.

    don't see how they have the same experience seeing how Porter was a highly praised amateur and Alvarez has no amateur experience

    in the ams Porter fought and beat guys like Demetrius Andrade, Danny Jacobs, and Shawn Estrada, throw in he has Roach as his trainer and has sparred with Pacquiao and i'd say that he holds a bit more weight in that department
