Mike Alvarado shows signs of Brain Damage

[Dr Rumack]

Yes, but I'm actually pretty worried about how much more pounding Provodnikov can take. He's glorious in his willingness to not just trade but to punch with his opponents, but he takes a heck of a lot of leather to his head as well.

The thing is the damage might not kick in for years. For all we know Provodnikov is fcuked already, but until the symptoms reveal themselves he's going to go on taking damage. After all, he's at the height of his earning power, just like Alvarado.

He seems fine to me.

Mike is thrown to the wolves, again.

Poor guy. He fights Rios twice, then Ruslan now JMM.

Marquez is actually a very winnable fight because of Alvarado's size, style and height/reach. Despite people accusing JMM of ducking Provodnikov, and Prov beating Alvarado, I actually feel that Prov is stylistically easier for JMM than Mike.

If anything, Marquez is the one fighting competition that is probably too tough for him at this age and his size. I predicted Bradley would be a very tough fight and beat JMM because of his style, but JMM did better than I anticipated, scored it a draw. Maybe he does better than I think he's gonna do against Mike, but it will be tough because of different factors, including age.

he seems high .

[fish262]

[hectari]

Mike and his trainer both sound a like so who knows maybe its a Colorado accent?

Seems like Ortiz's interview… possibly p*ssed or just high

You never know. Look at how much punishment guys like big George, JCC, Chuvalo and LaMotta took and they never showed signs of brain damage. At the other end u have a guy like Whitaker who barely took anyclean punches to the head and he is clearly punch drunk today. I guess its more genetic than anything else

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

He may not be a public speaker but I don't see signs of any damage.

Yea I don't know what the TS is talking about...

He's not fukin Shakespeare.
