I think Alvarado is planning to box him for all 12...
He looks in the same condition as last time.. maybe abit leaner probably (a lot of running)
Rios looks stronger, got dem abs...
Rios expects an inside fight - if not he is going to pressure
Alvarado knows he needs to work the outside and use that jab to setup his right hand...
Tough night for both.. Best man will win.. can Rios get on the inside or land the overhand right while Alvarado sticks with his jab? - That's what Alvarado is nervous about.
If Rios lands some good shots early and gets some decent inside work or isn't having trouble putting the pressure on then Alvarado is in for a tough night.
The pics don't clearly show the appearance of Rios. Looking at this video of him after the weigh-in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpYeY2WUf3Q, Rios looks emaciated and sick. I'm going against the grain and predicting an Alvarado win.
Rios looks stronger than before. Alvarado is in big trouble.
The only way Alvarado can do better is if he magically displays great foot movement and great head and upper body movement, two facets that he's never shown before. If you're betting on him doing something he's never done before, then that's your loss.
