Their fighting styles have every ingredient for the end result for potential F.O.Y.

Yes. They both come forward and can ****, both are strong and big fighters. This will be a war.

I was just about to post something about this fight. Yes I fully expect it to live up to my expectations. Not only will it be the fight of the year but it may very well be the fight of the decade. Shades of Corrales-Castillo I and Gattii-Ward? I think so.

yes.

based on what i've seen from either fighter i don't think they have a choice

i know rios has no other option if he wants to win. i doubt very much that alvarado can box for 12 rounds and win. if they're willing to take the risks they'll go to war. they've got the leaky defense, chins, power, and aggression to make this an action fight with plenty of contact.

i think the better chin will decide who wins the fight.

It will be a great war and LMAO to the dude who said he aint into the brawling, no skill style of fighting.. Must be a Molina or Abril fan!!

Potential? Of course without a doubt. But I have a feeling Rios is going to be beat down within 5 rds much in the way he himself put away Antillon. Even though we know he belongs there, tough first match to acclimate yourself at 140

Judging by interviews of the two, both guys seems very content with going to war with each other. Great news for us blood thirsty fans.
