    Better round for Rhodes. He has to do more and not let Canelo dictate the pace so much. Put some pressure on him.

    This is ridiculous. Rhodes' corner should just stop this.

    If you claim him, that's ok, but that kid ain't 100% Mexican. That's like saying Mariah Carey is 100% black.

    You've never been in the corner of a professional boxing match have you?

    Have you even watched a live sparring session in the gym in person?

    Round 7

    Alvarez is throwing two and three at a time, everything with power. No jabs. Rhodes is still there like a deer in the headlights...of a truck that isn't slowing down...and keeps backing up and rolling over the deer again. Rhodes is down, from a shove as Alvarez was just jumping in over-eager and leading with his forearms. Alvarez chases him into the ropes and flurries at him as Rhodes turns his head and keeps his hands held out to parry. Hard left hook and right hand combo by Rhodes, who has turned back to orthodox - mostly blocked.

    Another "close" round compared to 1-5. Still VERY clear and beyond easy to score.

    70-62

    This fight is a disgrace, Rhodes just came to get pay, switching to strike force

    7 - 0 Alvarez,

    Rhodes is landing but not enough, Alvarez lands more punches and controls the action.
