Marquez vs. Alvarado appears to be a done deal

Marquez should just KO this guy Ruslan

Taylor made for Marquez style

 

:deal


Innocent until proven guilty. He made Pac sleep. That is one hell of a punch at the right moment.

 

They made each other really. When it comes to popularity and fan appeal, in some fights there isnt a loser. Bradley/Prov was one of those. Bradley got some deserved respect, Ruslan got some rating an popular interest.

What you say about Ruslan might have held true a year ago, but these days... people are interested to see him fight. He is a fun fighter to watch, and I gaurantee you everyone who knows anything about Bradley other than the PAC fiasco also knows Ruslan now.

 

It's also likely that if you don't know who Provodnikov is then you probably don't know who Alvarado is either.

If I had to guess it's Top Rank trying not to wear Marquez out too much (which is difficult when in there with Provodnikov win or lose) and saving him for Pacquiao... Or Bradley.

 

I pretty much agree. Alvarado is actually more Versatile than Ruslan and has the longer reach.

Fighters like Ruslan, Marquez chews up and spits out.

I do think Ruslan is overrated. Bradley took Ruslan lightly and was out of shape looking bloated in the ring when he faced him.
Then Ruslan takes on Alvarado who was coming off of two wars with Rios.
Those two took alot out of eachother.

Alvardo is more worn, but stylewise he matches up better to Marquez than Ruslan would imo.


One thing I will say about Marquez, he's earned the right to fight whoever the **** he wants. Man is 40 years old for God's sake.

 

i know that Alvarado and Marquez are both coming off defeats, i understand that. BUT, Marquez is coming off a decision loss were he didn't suffer any damage what so ever. Alvarado on the other hand is coming off 2 wars with Rios, and an absolute Ass whooping from Prov. he shouldn't be fighting any more if truth be told.

so if Marquez is going to fight him, i call bull****. it should be Prov or no one.

it's not like Marquez fights the best guys out there when not fighting Pac. he fights the easy ones. so take Prov you ***** or keep your mouth shut. it's a disgrace to take on a fighter that should be punch drunk after the constant wars he's in.

just my 2 pence.

 

Provodnikov would destroy Marquez, would end his career and probably would severely injury Marquez. Provodnikov almost ended Bradley's career, left Bradley on the canvas.................

 

Nazim caught him trying to cheat in his fight vs Mosley.

More evidence than you will ever need. This lead the Cali boxing commissions to suspend him for 1 year.

Was there any evidence or any rumours of JMM cheating besides the word of *******s?

NOpe.

:hi:

 

i honestly don't even care for this fight anyway.

i'd rather see Provo Vs. Rios next.

 

JMM is yesterdays news.

 

First 3 fights no KDs ( no Memo ), 4th fight 1kd and 1 ko ( with Memo ):deal

 

Alvarado is clearly a stay-active fight as he waits for the winner of Pacquiao-Bradley II. There's no point risking his last big money shot against Provodnikov when it won't offer him much in return anyway.

 

Says who?. There's still quite a lot of people, myself included, that want to see him fight Pacquiao a fifth time.

 

There are lots of fighters who get KOd in brutal fashion and still continue their careers and even have success. You seem to think Alvarado is some vegetable who is incapable of ever stepping into the ring again. The fact is we don't know what he has left. If he does still have something left, then he is a better opponent than a lot of fighters I named earlier.

I think this fight, like pacquiao's fight against rios, will prove what marquez has left himself. he may not have lost in brutal fashion like pac, but his 40 and has been in several wars over the years.

you make it seem like marquez is in his prime and should be chasing legacy fights. i think after he defeated pacquiao and won their series in his eyes, anything after is all gravy. i just don't understand reaction considering JMM's age and wear and tear. :huh
