    Good fight, but I see Alvarez putting a beat down on foreman. Main reason is foremans lack of power. I am not one of these people underating alvarez after the matthew hatton fight. Hatton came to fight that night and put up a damn good show, and still Alvarez won nearly every round. If Alvarez keeps his feet on the ground the man is goin to be frightening in a few years, he's still a boy. And yes even at this age I think he smashes foreman up.

    We'll see how Foreman does tomorrow. I am not going to buy that PPV. Actually I dont think that should be PPV. We just had Donaire vs Montiel for free but this is PPV Anyways I am more interested in seeing Foreman tomorrow than Cotto beating up Mayorga.

    Alvarez blasts him out in inside of 3. If you can't hurt Alvarez you can't beat him. Foreman can't hurt him.

    I don't think he gets him that early, i think Yuri Foreman can mess him about a bit with his movement. But i do think Saul Alvarez walks him down and stops him similar to how Miguel Cotto did.

    Yuri Foreman actually has underrated power, believe it or not when he sat down on his punches it had an effect on Daniel Santos. But the trouble is he's constantly on his toes moving around the ring throwing arm punches.

    He's getting no power in his punches, and a good pressure fighter can walk him down and walkthrough his punches.

    He'd be better served to either learn to get more power while being on the backfoot, or improving his inside game and learn to stand his ground and fight more.

    I think Yuri will do even better than that. Yuri took some shots from Cotto I am pretty sure he can take shots from Alvarez too. I am not saying he is better and would win but I think Yuri takes it 12 rounds. Hatton did I think Yuri will too.

    So did the Foreman hype end already?
    He is supposedly a great technical boxer. It was obvious how Wolak would fight and yet that didn't help him a bit.

    i actually believe him that his head wasn't in the fight, he looked off from the get go, i think he can come back strong he just needs to get his shit in order, but honestly it's hard not to like Foreman the guy is so humble and such a nice likable person a real class act, i just hope he comes back with fire and does well, if he chooses to retire well good luck in whatever path he chooses

    I gave Yuri to much credit thinking he'll make it to the 3rd against Alvarez. Based on last night I don't think he makes it out the 1st
