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
I never said he wasn't worthy. I think he will be game and go some rounds. But I can't see a guy who loss to Gary Lockett and who's best days are behind him winning this
And hugging every time your opponent gets close, going down on purpose from a glancing blow to get your opponent DQ'ed while occasionally throwing a wide hail punch ain't really trying to win. He was there to go 12. And that's it
i dont agree on the hatton fight, hatton was coming forward throwing punches when ever he could, they werent having much affect but dit doesnt mean he wasnt trying
as far as i remember hatton went down twice, and both were late punches and both were 2 of alvarezes best punches of the fight, especially the second, it was probably the cleanest he caught hatton
