Alvarado, who hails from Managua, Nicaragua, improves to 26-8, with 18 KOs. Gutierrez, who hails from Venezuela, drops to 15-1-1, with 12 KOs. The Venezuela-born Gutierrez was taking a major step-up in opposition against Alvarado, who was a featherweight contender before losing to the likes of Rocky Juarez, Joseph Diaz, and Eric Hunter.

Nothing or no one will convince Manny Pacquiao to hang up his gloves, even after his decision win over Timothy Bradley in April of last year (remember how he said he would retire?). Pacquiao continued his career after the highlight-reel knockout loss to Juan Manuel Marquez in December of 2012. Neither did the boring decision loss to Floyd Mayweather two and a half years later.
