Comments Thread For: Mike Alvarado: I Deserve The Marquez Fight, Not Rios

[4Corners]

I feel like they should make Marquez-Judah and Alvarado-Rios. It gives Marquez a shot to beat a legit and top 140 lb guy for that WBO belt, as well as prepare against a fast southpaw with speed and power. And it gives Rios a shot to redeem himself somewhat against a Top 140 lb fighter. And it gives Alvarado a shot to beat a fighter who's still a good fighter and has a good name as well to build who he is. Alvarado fights just like Rios, and I'd probably say Alvarado has a better jab than Rios and isn't quick, but is quicker than Rios is.

Why would marquez want to prepare for a fast southpaw with speed and power??... He won like 33 rounds out of 36 with pacqiauo the #1 fighter in the world... A southpaw with speed and power.

Marquez vs Judah sounds like a great match up. And so does Alvarado vs Rios!
Or Rios vs Miadana!

Rios lucky that it wasn't Gamboa in there las night or he would have been Rocked! And embarrassed last night!

He won 20 of the 36 rounds to me, and it's still good to prepare for that, rather than fighting f**king Mercito Gesta or Brandon Rios. Zab Judah, although it was just Vernon Paris, looked danm good his last time out and is a highly ranked 140 lb guy. Why not make Marquez-Judah for the full WBO title???

Doesn't matter who he fights, he'll beat both of them, along with most of the top 140 LB'ers.

Alvarad/Rios I like but the reality...Mike needs a ranked 140#er btwn 24 doubt JMM /Zab 2 happen...JMM doesn't need 2 box a guy faster than he & a lefty, unless some1 offers mega $$$...

Alvarado Provodnikov anybody? I still don't know how Herrera beat him, but Provodnikov would be a real war.

Alvarado would have badly damaged Rios last night if they fought. Two different levels of professional. Alvarado is always in great shape, comes in with the proper weight, throws tons of accurate punches, has a good chin, does so many things well. And when other fighters tire late, he pours it on.

alvarado is another brawling bum............

alvarado swings wildly & was losing a SHUT OUT before prescott gassed in the very last round.........

he's not good at all.
