    Should be good for a few rounds I see rios winning easier but I hope Alvarado makes it interesting

      & it can go either way.
      It will probably be more boring, because Alvarado will try to box this time.

        Yeah, not interested in it. Not seeing a reason for a rematch. It was an exciting fight, but still pretty one-sided

        I expect Alvarado to stick n move for 10 rounds before submitting.

        Would have preferred Rios/Bradley

          i agree with you, sir.

          Rios has a power-punch of a jab, but it's never really shown itself to be an artful or consistent tool.

          you gave me a recollection, though:

          rios categorically does not have as good a jab as prescott, or even close. more to the point, they don't use their jabs vaguely similarly.
          This.

          Prescott has a great jab and hook off his left hand.

              Can't wait for this fight first one was non-stop all action Alvarado was fighting well up until he got caught up in that exchange in the end but the ref had to stop it cause at that point Alvarado wasn't throwing back and was seriously hurt at that point props to rios though wanting to fight him again he could have easily looked for an easier opponent

                I kind of wish Rios was fighting someone else, but Top Rank doesn't have much at 140. Whatever, I know the two of them will end up throwing bombs at each other, it will be fun to watch anyway.

                  Alvarado can't fight 12 disciplined rounds against Rios he will box early on in the mid rounds he will get suckered into a brawl again and get Knocked out

                    ehh, another good scrap. rios by KO again but Rios doesnt gain anything from this fight. this should be a warning to other fighters to not sign up with slob arum kuz their stable is dry;just look at Bradley. Golden Boy is boxing.

                      I don't like this rematch so soon..it was a great fight but not the caliber of a Corrales/Castillo, Barrera/Morales..a loss for Alvarado throws him into obscurity and what does a win do for Rios, get's him a Pacquiao fight? A trilogy would too quick to make too. TR could easily be matching Rios vs Bradley or Rios and Alvarado vs GB fighters.
