Matthew Hatton, let's cheer the 21st century Christian thrown to the lions.

To me going to toe to toe with Matthew Hatton and him not giving an inch is a pretty damning indictment against your power?

Definitely Saul should stay away from the likes of Kirkland, Angulo, Berto and maybe even Margarito at this stage. How Hatton survived definitely leaves me dumbfounded

No maybe with Margarito. Margarito beats him down brutally imo.

I tell you who I'd love to see get a crack at him.

Ishe Smith. He's due a big win imo, and I think he would have a great shot against Alvarez.

Ishe Smith you're joking right

Not at all. He's fought many top prospects in recent years, and although he's lost the fights they have mostly been debatable and he's finished stronger than all of them.

He put Gurrero down and finished strong, he should have got the decision against Sechew Powell. He was lively against the much bigger Daniel Jacobs fighting at middleweight. He got a great win over the unbeaten Pawel Wolak.

He's been fighting out of his weight class to get the fights, move him back down to 154 and he gives Alvarez a very tough fight.

I guarantee if was a 12 rounder it would be a fight we would all be debating who won. Smith tends to start slow and would lose early rounds, but the second half of the fight he'd pick Alvarez apart imo. Over 10 rounds, Alvarez would win, over 12 I reckon Smith bangs out a decision.
