Comments Thread For: Team Rios: We Preferred Marquez, Not Alvarado II

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Trainer Robert Garcia admits that he, and super lightweight contender Brandon Rios (31-0-1, 23KOs), preferred to do something other than a direct rematch with Mike Alvarado (33-1, 23KOs).

Rios stopped Alvarado in the seventh round of a "Fight of The Year" candidate last October. Rios was then promised an April 20th clash with Manny Pacquiao. But not everything went as expected when two months later Pacquiao was knocked out in the sixth round by Marquez.

Rios doesn't deserve a crack at Marquez OR Pacquiao.

Rios just KO alvardo and keep on moving. Marquez is gonna fight no one outside of Pacquaio or Mayweather he aint no longer concerned with braggin rights he wants big paydays that will also enhance his legacy.

Good point. Why is Arum trying to make Gamboa-Bradley but not Bradley-Rios? He did want to match Bradley vs Alvarado after all. He probably figured Bradley would beat Rios and he can't risk that.
