The Fix was IN!..

[..WaRSpencE..]

swift stopped miranda in 2! ya dig! lol

Benavidez was trying to gain experience and feel out that 8 rounds...he could've stopped Miranda at any point really..but his confidence came back to bite him in the ass!...

Garcia's left hook is vicious tho..I'm not too fond of him..but his grit is something to admire..I wanna see him and Rios or Alvarado go at it now..

you can say its an early stoppage, but its an ok stoppage i think.

I wouldn't argue that..I can see it being a decent stoppage..I, personally, believe it was early..

what about those cards tho..what do you think?..

Any official cards yet? I thought Alvarado was leading before the TKO.

They showed the official cards after the fight was over..

2 judges had Rios up 4-2 and 1 judge had it 3-3

I say a good stoppage, Alvarado wasn't punching back and totally defenseless. He live to fight another day, maybe a rematch.

You think? Lol Alvarado was clearly winning that fight. After he was hurt he was in the process of clinching and the ref jumped in the way to separate them and stop the fight. What type of **** is that? Then not to mention the scorecards. Like I said, Arum been talking about putting Rios vs Marquez or Pacquiao since the Gamboa (Abril) fight was talked about. He gave Rios the biggest gift ever and Rios was on his way to getting another one. Just so that he could face Pacquiao or Marquez. The dude is a bum a 50 year old Pacquiao or Marquez would beat the brakes off of him.

Thanks for the heads up, I watched a slightly delayed Philippine telecast where they did not show anything.

[Sweet Pea 50]

This how I scored it.

Round 1: Rios.

Round 2: Alvarado.

Round 3: Rios.

Round 4: Alvarado.

Round 5: Alvarado.

Round 6: Rios.

So, three rounds apiece going into the 7th.

If anybody has a problem with my scorecard, feel free to flame, lol.

Watch the 7th round again, Alvarado wasn't punching back. Good enough reason for the ref to stop the fight.
