        Lets see how this one plays out.
        Good fight but JuanMa Salido II is still FOTY. It also had the ROTY until the 12th of Sergio Jr

            it's going to be boring. rios will get up on his toes and outbox alvarado easily. rios does have the feet to be fleet-footed!

                I think it's almost CERTAIN we get at least 3 rounds of PURE WAR being waged.

                I mean, neither of these guys can fight going backwards, nor do they even care to try to "box" off the back foot. Well, Alvarado has shown tendencies to be complament at times, and not press the action (Prescott fight). But Rios is ALWAYS coming forward, ****ing away.


                There's always the possibility of an early stoppage in a fight like this. One guy getting flurried out on the ropes, and ref having to jump in.


                I'm actually picking ALvarado here, though. I think he's bigger, stronger, and even slightly more technical on the inside than Rios. He can generate some serious leverage on his short, inside uppercuts, and hooks.

                  Rios' face looks fucked up to begin with so that's not really fair.
