    Good call. Alvarado stopped fighting and couldn't protect himself. Good job by the ref.

      Great Call, Alvarado was out on his Feet!!! I never posted in any of the Alvarado vs Rios threads because I couldn't choose who to root for but that was a good stoppage!

          at first I thought so too, but after seeing it a couple more times and hearing the ref's reasoning, I think he made a good call. Ref was really honest.

            Good stoppage...people just don't want to agree with it because they didn't want such a great fight to end.

                It was a good stoppage. Had it continued Alvarado would have gotten hit with more bombs. What if the guy got seriously injured? Live to fight another day.

                  Good call.

                  Mike is a great fighter, he will be back, no need to **** up his life there trying to prove a point, he was done.

                    There seems to have been some confusion. I think Alvarado was expecting a standing 8 count, he was just kind of waiting there. The ropes held him up so it should have been ruled a knockdown.
