    Whatever happens , this is the fight of a lifetime by Alvarado. I was wrong!

    He has kept the pace, the tempo and skillset to bring this home over 12.

    No one say draw...please...dont say it

    So I reckon we'll see Rios vs. Alvarado III, especially since HBO's stables are a little low right now.

    Like him or not, boxing needs guys like Rios.

    Alvarado is a tough SOB to come back from being stopped in the 1st fight and winning a UD in the 2nd fight, after being hurt, and having his face all busted up.

    TBH, I thought Mike was close to being done in the 2nd round after being hurt by a jab, I guess that was his wake up call.

    Me too man. I honestly thought he was toast. Alvarado made adjustments though and Rios looked like he only packed for a 6-8 round trip.

    I think Rios might have hit the wall now. There's only so many fights that you can take that level of punishment and ever be remotely close to what you originally were. Maybe Rios is on the sldie now.

    I don't agree, I think he's got some good years left in him. I believe Brandon was a bit overconfident coming into the fight, and he didn't expect Mike to be as resilient or to fight as well as he did.

    cheers Kirk, Donaire vs. Rigon in 2 weeks on April 13th.. woooohooo

    Who can say, I think the guy enjoys being in the ring no matter what. I understand what you are saying though, nobody can take that much damage and expect to have a long career.
    There is one thing I know, 99% of boxers do not want to be in a war like the Rios vs Alvarado fight.
