The week before Brad/Marquez.
Shoot, if Only it was GBP....they'd put it on the undercard

140 or 147?

140 or 147?

I want to guess it's at 140 for Mike's title... but might be 147 since Ruslan said he's had trouble making 140

Awesome fight if it happens, get the hospital ready as both guys might have to take a visit after this Brutal war.

So bob lied about alvarados hand being injured. The fight is in denver thats a nice advantage for mike especially if it goes to the cards and you never know it just might nobody thought rios/alvarado II would go the distance. Looking forward to this one, great ****ing fight!

yeah that's what i hate about top rank/arum...they always ****ed up the ppv undercards. nowadays, even undercards is a major decider for ppv buyers.

jmm-bradley + alvarado-provo...would've been a no-brainer for anyone who loves boxing to buy the ppv.

Still hearing that they are far apart in regards to the purse.
