Mike by UD 12 if he boxes as he did vs Rios, if he's more stationary, I can c a tko win 4 him...

Still don't understand how Alvarado's hand injury keeps him out of a November fight,but is healed just in time for a mid October brawl with a lesser known fighter. Either way Alvarado wins, and even though I have HBO I will be streaming the fight because I can not support TR screwing over their talent

Take it for what it's worth, since it came from Arum, but apparently Alvarado passed on hand surgery for an injury. Arum didn't feel comfortable that he could rely on Alvarado's availability for a Pacquiao fight, since he might hurt his hand in training.

Again, take it for what it's worth. More likely, Arum knows Rios is a bigger name and a guaranteed slaughter if Pac has anything left.

Bradley fought like he had something to prove against Ruslan, even fought with Reyes gloves. Alvarado showed against Rios that he's capable of fighting in a disciplined manner and retreating/clinching when he needs to. He has a height/reach advantage on Ruslan, and he has a pretty good jab.

Not only is it mid october-but its in Mike's hoemtown. SO if he can't go the whole fight card is off. Thats said its also reasonable to not risk the china card on Mike. But when you see the above it makes it hard to believe.

At 140 Alvarado has a chance.

at any weight Alvarado stops providnokov

[Chrismart]
