I told you!!!!!! This was a war. Two Mexicans in a fight means war. No " slickness ", " hit and don't be hit sweet science BS ". This sport is for men, for machos. Compare this fight with Abril's fight. Abril is a lady that just danced the waltz. Nobody watches his fights. Not even my cuban brothers.

Originally posted by Lorily View PostI gotta give props to Rios first and foremost. With that being said, IMHO I believe Alvarado could have easily outboxed Rios and coasted to a fairly easy UD if he would have chosen to do so. Obviously that wouldn't be near as fun for us, but I believe the guy that's gonna beat Rios is a guy who doesn't try to go punch for punch with him. When Alvarado used his jab (an amazing 50+ per round) Brandon didn't punch, and when Alvarado would stick and move he was in zero danger.
I would love to see a rematch with these two and see how different the outcome could be if Alvardo decided to box Rios. Hell, I wanna see a rematch even if Alvarado decided to go mano y mano again. These guys MUST rematch!!!!! Hell of a fight, and that's what brings the love of the game back to the fans.
But the method to beating Rios is power. He can easily be hit, but if you can't bust a g****, you won't do anything to him. Mathysse's style is tailor made for Rios. He would stop him.

That was a great fight, something fight fans deserved after all these robberies, cancelled fights and the best refusing to fight the best. I don't have any problem with the stoppage but Alvarado could have continued a little bit more. Wouldn't mind watching a rematch.

The minute they lose their running, hugging, footwork ability, they lose and the fans don't like them, at least the Latinos, Asians and Europeans.
All I gotta say, I dont even have to waste words...its not worth it, lol.

Originally posted by BoxingGenius27 View PostI'd have to disagree with that. The "only" guy at 140 that is going to beat him "will" go punch for punch with him and it's Mathysse; possibly Garcia.
