I remember when Cotto wobbled Alvarez a bit in round one. Angulo hits a lot harder than Cotto so had he landed that kind of shot I wonder if Alvarez would've been able to get himself out of trouble. Maybe that was just a really good shot and Alvarez is a slow starter though, I dunno?
I don't think there is anyone at 154 who can go punch for punch with Angulo, so Alvarez would need the skills to jab, move, tie-up and counter well. I'm not sure that he has those tools at this point in time. I think he'd probably get drawn into a war, or just fail to hold Angulo off and end up getting worn down and stopped.
