    I'm pumped for this fight even though I have a feeling It's gonna be a different than the first. Alvarado will box more and as the previous poster mentioned, if he's smart he'll go to the body to try to slow down Rios. I think I had Alvarado winning the first fight by a point before the stoppage.

    Either way, it should be a fun night of boxing!

      I think Rios chops him down again, but do also believe that Alvarado is the more skilled guy. Rios does not care to get hit or hurt and his sure will ensures his victory. One thing I notice with Rios is that he always works out with a sweat suit on. This gives the notion that he still has issues with his weight. I hope he has this under control.

        Alvarado sticks and moves? Are you kidding? He couldn't if he wanted to! He's not tht type of fighter and doesn't have the stamina, style or skill.

            Rios will repeat

            This will be another entertaining donnybrook but Rios is better catcher and pitcher even though Alvarado is awfully rugged in his own right. Rios too explosive, will catch him again, perhaps earlier. Alvarado should go light for a few fights after this one.

              if Alvarado actually sticks to the plan and boxes rios, Alvarado wins pretty easily, but something tells me its gonna be toe-to-toe and its not gonna go the distance
              True. And Alvarado has already proven he is not tough enough to deal with Rios, so this fight will probably end with him getting stopped again.

                But he might be scared into it. He knows last time he couldn't take going toe to toe. I know he said he would end up fighting toe to toe again, but I wouldn't be surprised if he completely changes his game plan this time around. He should anyway.

                  Now while I cannot wait for this fight, what the future holds for Bam Bam is saddening. I know he only has 3 options on the table. And that requires moving to 147. When 140 is soo damn hot right now. Warrrrrrrrr Rios! And Alvarado!

                    Bam Bam by KO all over again after he closes the distance.
