Comments Thread For: Brandon Rios-Mike Alvarado Verbal Agreement Reached

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Multiple sources have advised BoxingScene.com that Brandon Rios (30-0-1, 22KOs) and Mike Alvarado (33-0, 23KOs) have verbally agreed to face each other on October 13th at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California. The contracts have yet to be signed, but both fighters want it to happen. IBF/WBO super bantamweight champion Nonito Donaire will defend his titles in the second portion of the televised doubleheader.

Hope Donaire fights Nishioka, but with Rios-Alvarado, it won't be the best fight this night regardless.

Very good fight. I got Rios in this, I think he has a bigger arsenal and will outgun Alvarado down the stretch.

It's mile high time finally he got the apportunity to show what he gots alvarado by ko

Whenever there's a verbal agreement announced between Top Rank, it virtually gets done eventually. Fight of the year candidate on paper.

With Arce pricing himself out for a tune up, there's hope Donaire may step up the competition. If Donaire-Nishioka is happening on the same card, it will be more than a blockbuster night (I think Rigondeaux is already booked?).

Riding with Mike.

But it can go either way and can end at anytime.

Money says Rios still has issues making 140.

I will lose all respect for Rios if he doesn't make weight again.
