    Classes above Salka, yes.

    But classes above Herrera? **** outta here. Once upon a time, yes. But Herrera would SCHOOL Avlarado in a rematch.

    Alvarado's notable wins:
    Prescott, Herrera, Rios

    Herrera's notable wins:
    Dallas, Garcia, Perez, Benavidez

    I disagree, the fact that Chavez left the fire fight with Rios doesn't tell me he was hurt worse, just tells me he knew he wouldn't win in that type of inside fire fight. He was being outworked and worn down against a guy who just has a better chin and higher stamina and work rate. Anyone with half a brain would stop fighting a rock-em sock-em fight if they realize they can't hurt the other guy nearly fast enough to finish them before they finish you. If you remember vs Kieth he fought cautious at first then tried an outside fire fight, but before he was able to get back to boxing more technically, he wound up getting stopped.

    No footage of the Madrid fight, you're talking out your ****.

    He beat Dominguez in his home town, I thought he deserved the decision.

    Haven't seen the first Perez fight but he ****ed him up in the rematch.


    I think you just went through his resume looking for SD's to claim they were robberies.

    Definitely not on bum level which I read a lot of comments describing him as, so a tad underrated?

    I even bet on Alvie in the rematch and won big but I think he's gonna get finished off tonight. He gone.

    Alvardo was never that good again, he is decent enough, but still far from the likes of Bradley, Provodnikov, Brook, Marquez & Thurman.

    Rios ain't no bum, but he is still not that good either and defiantly not severely underrated, i think he'd lose to must top 10 or 5 fighters by a wide margin.

    If Al is in shape tonight ,all he has to do is double jab follow by a straight right and he can do this all night. Rio's is garbage. They're hoping they get a Al that fought Juan ,could be wrong tonight.
