Mike Alvarado is about 148 right now.

no that's nothing considering most fighters spar 3 days a week and about 6-10 rounds a day for about 5 weeks

thats 15 days of sparring and anywhere between 90 and 150 rounds

35 is miniscule but there's been a trend for less sparring more conditioning

Crystina Poncher confirmed that this is the norm for his camps and they do less sparring to keep him fresh for the fight.

I like this idea, just like Martinez. Bad enough the wars he's in already take years out of his career. No need for further damage in sparring.

I think Rios will try to make up for past sins and make weight in shape and Alvarado should be in top condition. I think the better man will win a war but I don't know who the better man is. I hope Rios redeems himself and wins.

Wow this is great really cool to see everyone really hyped fight. I cant wait for this fight ill be rooting for alvarado

[El Angel]

I hope Alvarado shuts Rios up and knocks his ass out.

Whatdo you think is better?

personally between 50-75 rounds of sparring should be fine for top level guys

if you need more you can adjust especially if you have a difficult style you're facing

anything over 100 and IMO you risk burning out

still not par for the course which is what my reply referred to

[Bronard]

Well Alvarado is always in good shape and Rios' style is as simple as it gets so Im not worried about how many rounds he spars.
