      Rios is gonna surprise a lot of people who think he's not gonna be as good at 140.

        Only if it lasts longer than 5 RD's. Which I hope it does.

        Gonna be hard to get to the final bell for either guy.

          Yea it'll be interesting to see who the winner fights, GB has most of the top 140 lber's with the exception of Marquez.

            It will be constant toe to toe action because that's how these guys have to fight. Neither one of them is going to change their style and try to outbox.

            It will be the fight that everyone expects for as long as it lasts. The only way it doesn't become the fight everyone expects is if their is an early round KO.

                I think there is a good chance Alvarado will use his superior boxing ability to avoid a tear up.

                He can either box and can comfortably almost guaranteed come out with the win or he can make it hard on himself. I don't think hes going to fight to Rios strength and pretty much the only way he knows how, hes better than that.

                Alvarado isn't the one trick pony people think he is.

                  Rios is moving up, while Alvarado has a proven beard and pop at this weight. It may last 6 rounds but Alvarado destroying this fool

                  plus you throw in the fact that i personally cannot stand listening to Rios and am not interested in seeing him for much longer

                      Alvarado isn't a one trick pony. but the dude loves to and would much rather fight. so that's what's gonna happen.
