    BoxingScene.com has been advised by sources at HBO that a second fight between Brandon Rios and Mike Alvarado is being planned for March 16th, possibly at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

    The first encounter in October was a slugfest in which Rios stopped Alvarado, though the bout was fought on even terms, begged for a rematch.

          The first fight was awesome. Don't mind seeing a rematch.

              Looks like Bradley and Pacquiao left in the dust.

                  Bring the fireworks to Cali once again. Can't wait! This one will reach the distance though. Alvarado won't get toe to toe from the get-go. He won't risk himself to run out of gas again. Rios by 12UD...

                      put Alverado in with Mathysse, and rios in with ? why the *** do these promoters have such a lock on the game to where they manipulate the product? every fight at every weight class should be able to be atleast negotiated - if it falls through oh well, but (140 pounders - Garcia / judah / Mathysse / rios / alverado / khan / peterson / marquez / bradley / and there are more - this is killing the game for real - inhouse fights - not bad, but not good either

                              I loved the first fight and I'd love to watch a rematch, but why so soon? They should let both guys take 1 more fight before matching them up again.

                              I'd want to see Alvarado/Provodnikov (for WBO strap) and Rios/PEDerson (for IBF strap), then a rematch and possibly unification if both can win titles. Definitely would make it more interesting and winner will go on to way bigger and better things.

                              Alvarado vs. Provodnikov WBO Title Bout is Possible
                              http://www.boxingscene.com/alvarado-vs-provodnikov-wbo-title-bout-possible--58172
                              According to Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, junior welterweight contender Mike Alvarado (33-1, 23KOs) will likely contend for the vacant WBO championship in his next fight. Juan Manuel Marquez, who faces Manny Pacquiao on December 8th in Las Vegas, is likely going to vacate his WBO 140-pound title, says Arum. The vacant belt would provide Alvarado with the opportunity to fight for a belt - and Ruslan Provodnikov (22-1, 15KOs) is a potential opponent.

                                  Alvarado lucked out then didn't he?
                                  Rios must not have had a solid payday lined up

                                      hopefully they'll assign a referee who isn't itching to stop the fight the moment someone gets rocked.
