By Jake Donovan - You’ll have to pardon Mike Alvarado for feeling like the baddest mother-you-know-what on the planet right now.
After all, his name was the first to come up when Brandon Rios demanded his management bring him “the baddest mother***er at 140 lb.” for his next fight. Rios had long ago outgrown the lightweight division, but prolonged matters by a fight or two. The unbeaten former champion finally came to grips with science and decided to set his sights on the 140 lb. division.
Ready and waiting was Alvarado, who has longed for such an opportunity and didn’t waste any time in accepting the assignment.
“I can’t wait for it,” Alvarado said of his upcoming fight with Rios on October 13 during an interview on ATG Radio (Editor’s note: Jake Donovan is a co-host of the internet radio show). “This is where I should have been a long time ago. I’m ready for it.”
The matchup is mouthwatering to say the least. Fans and media alike have all tabbed the bout – which takes place at the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA – as a surefire contender in the making for Fight of the Year, two unbeaten fighters in their prime who always make for thrilling entertainment.
