Alvarado is a blood and guts fighter and he will be at home when he go to war this is a a:s kicking( if Timmy say dude got power he got power).
Nothing drives boxing fans more crazy than a guy with perceived power. They fall in love with them instantly and think he's unbeatable. Pavlik, GGG, Matty, Stevenson, etc. I'm also of the belief that Alvarado will outbox Ruslan and win a UD. Ruslan got outboxed twice on FNF. One time they gave him the gift but the other time, he got the L.
alvarado isn't nearly as good of a boxer, and matthysse wasn't coming off of a fight against a consensus elite fighter, where he almost beat said fighter.
well of course the Hype isnt the same, we all know that. garcia's dad alone mad that happen plus everybody was in love with matthysse. Im saying, look from a prediction stand point. Nobody is picking Ruslan by Decision...why is that?? because they think of a KO and or dont think he can win if it goes the distance. thats almost exactly what people predictied for the garcia-matthysse fight! U dont see it?? All im saying is that i can already tell that most of you guys that picked Matthysse are picking Ruslan and not even mentioning it going the distace
Alavardo is as good as a boxer as garcia and i think a matchup between them would be better then this fight! matthysse wasnt coming of a fight with an Elite fighter but hes was getting more prasise then Ruslan which makes it even crazier!
Who really cares what the Vegas odds say, thats why I won $2000 a month ago. The facts are Garcia was the champ ( Mike is) better boxer (Mike is) better defensively ( yes Mike gets in wars but moves his head more then Ruslan) so this fight matches up perfect. Reason why i put $600 on it yesterday, man I love cleaning up the casinos!! Watch Ruslan get outboxed just like Matthysse...after this fight people will be saying they want Garcia-Alavarado and that would be an alltime classic!!
I disagree. I think garcia is the better boxer. furthermore, the proof is in the pudding, matthysse was getting more praise, something understandable for a knockout artist, no matter who he is knocking out, but ruslan provodnikov is coming off of a fight with a consensus elite fighter. he's shown that he can hang with, and even come close to stopping a top fighter.
Ok I cant argue with that :good But a comparsion I see is nobody is picking Ruslan by decision?? thats a huge comparision to the Garcia fight. Is it because people think he cant win a decision or because they dont think it will make it the distance?? I've yet to see Ruslan by Decision just like There was nobody picking Matthysse by decision. I told everybody what happens if Garcia can take his punch?? Everybody said "Dont worry about it, its not going past 6" Well it did and Matthysse couldnt keep up. Now I wonder whats gonna happen if Ruslan doesnt KO Mike??? hes gonna get outboxed BIG TIME!! :bbb:bbb
