I keep hearing about This Alvarez guy I wanna see him fight in the states already and see what he's really made of...

Right now, at the elite level, this kid really isnt much. He gets his A LOT, and thats against journeymen and no hopers. Not that he doesnt have potential, he seems to have good durability and a solid punch, and he can mix it up pretty well, but he has major holes in his defense. Hes just a kid right now, only 19 years old, if they want to make a superstar out of him they need to give him time and a good trainer.
