Comments Thread For: Mike Alvarado: I Won't Underestimate Rios This Time!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

"Mile High" Mike Alvarado has vowed to use his boxing skills to fight a smarter fight in his rematch against Brandon Rios that takes place this Saturday at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV. He said that he will try to resist his natural instincts to fight toe to toe.

"I am going to be myself but I am going to fight smarter and stick to my game plan. My skills are there and I showed them but I am a warrior and I got away from my game plan. It is going to be easier this time around," Alvarado explained.

On the other hand, Alvarado doesn't expect Rios to make any changes from their first fight and said that the 26-year-old will be surprised at what he has in store for him.

If Alvarado sticks to boxing, moving around the ring and using his reach advantage, he'll win this fight no problem. I doubt he has the discipline to do that for 12 rounds though.

homeboy, i'm sure you didn't underestimate him the first time. you knew what you were getting into. he's already talking like a man with 2 L's against rios.

Well, Rios is working on the right hand that quickly shifted the fight in his direction, so Alvarado better be prepared...

If He Box He Wins!

I could see this being a Trilogy if Alvarado wins this fight

he can box all he wants,but once he starts getting hit it starts to change everything,he can be winning the first 5 o 6 rounds but i'm sure rios would have landed some bombs in those rounds and that right there will help him for the second half of the fight,boxers have all these rounds to win,it doesn't matter that one boxer is winning the first couple of rounds but the opponent is also landing his body shots and preparing him for the second half of fight with his opponent already seeing the effects of those body shots even though he was losing early,its all about having a plan that way

I guess Mikey didn't get the memo that Rios is working with Memo. Nothing he can do will stop the PED POWER SHOTS! They will keep on coming and coming! lol
