[QUOTE=marvin douglas;13198473]I'm just wondering, does Rios ever practice making his opponents miss? I've never seen a world class fight get hit flush on the face as does Rios. Also, If Mike A. had any semblance of power in his punches, he would have KO'ed Rios.
Besides, these guys are not in the same class as Broner. He would KO both inside of 5 rounds.[/
We just got a classic and you want to bring up Broner? SMH.

Great fight. Alvarado won it close. Rios needs to work on that stamina and defense. Pretty much got shut out there at the end. I'm really surprised Alvarado kept his composure after what could have been a disastrous beginning, buckled down, came back and outboxed Rios down the stretch. Can't wait to see the third and hope they come out with enough to give the rest of the division a run for their money.

There we go, that makes sense. Alvarados stamina was too good.
I take back my PED accusations.

Originally posted by vacon04 View PostI think it was a clear victory for Alvarado. For the last 4 or 5 rounds Alvarado was the better man, he was clearly frustrating Rios with all his movement and was able to outbox him.
I had it 116-113 for Alvarado, but I have no problem with a 115-113 scorecard.
