    Alvarado might take less punishment with some of the other guys around his weight, but Rios? He's gonna' go life and death with just about anybody we'd want to see him fight. It's his deal.

    Fuggit. Bring on the next one, but I hope both of those fellas max out their earnings for the 3rd fight.

    No need for a fight in between a 3rd one, best to have it now if you are going to do it. I would just hope they don't fight until december at the earliest.

    I agree. If those guys are tied up, its either Juan Manuel or Pacquiao who will face Bradley, and if Juan Manuel does not want to fight Pacquiao then old Bob might just give his cash cow the shot at Bradley and leave Juan Manuel without an opponent.

    i honestly don't need to see a third fight. we know how its going to go. alvarado is gonna do his best to land points and stay away from rios's power, if he can't then rios is going to end it early. lets see them versus other good fighters at 140. the division is stacked. would love to see one of them fight the winner of matthysse/peterson. screw khan, he doesn't deserve the winner.

    As much as the fans wanted, its not going to happen because of the feud between Bob and Oscar. At this point is best to give up on the feud ending and instead just hope that fighters of each promotional company can fight the best competition they can under their promotional banner.

    i think alvarado has the right to move on. the first fight was controversial in alot of peoples opinions. i think rios would have finished off most likely in the first fight. then after watchin the 2nd fight i think alvarado would of been able to make it out of the first fight. but the 2nd fight mike won fair n square non controversial just move on the rematch will always be there just take it when u dont got many options on the table .

    Would like to see it but not right away, both guys should let a 3rd fight marinate and take on other challengers. Just like Gatti vs Ward, Marquez vs Vasquez and to a lesser extent Marquez vs. Pacquio, both Rios and Alvarado could spend the best part of their careers ruining each other.
