    Alan takes a strong decision over ten rounds.Duran is not the guy to beat him.

    It might depend on which Minter turns up, When Alan became reckless and didnt bide his time, he could leave himself open and pick up facial damage, ala his stoppage to Gretian Tonna in the first fight, if however Alan boxes to plan and keeps it tight Ala Tonna II Victory, Alan would be far harder for Roberto to Counter to any damaging degree, I think Alan would pay Roberto that Respect, work off the Jab, keep the heavy stuff concise and not Loiter in exchanges,
    a Focused Alan on Points, with Roberto's defensive cababilities he would probably have Alan missing quite a bit initially, But alan has Mobility and Stamina and a good Chin, he can stay at range and a half-step ahead, for an entertaining win, Roberto would probably be taunting and Goading Alan to come in towards the End, Alans Corner would tell him not to Bite on that Bait.
