    Fair stoppage IMO. BP was chasing a hug to Alvarado... Ref was just avoiding more damage

    Disgraceful stoppage. Guy has fight won on his feet let him have a shot to finish.

    I'm not a "Prescott fan" IB, but I thought it was an early stoppage, that was kinda ****ed up comment Breh. I think Prescott is becoming the new school Glenn Johnson, in terms of good fights but getting shitty endings.

    Not a great stoppage, but a preemptive one. Prescott didn't look good at all. Alvarado had scored a big knockdown and was hammering him.

    Were I the ref, I'd have let Prescott go down one more time(It was seconds away) and then waved it off, but I can't ***** too much.

    Alvarado, too a degree, exposed in that fight in that he is not the next big thing. He had the heart, the conditioning, and the power its been obvious his whole career he had, but his boxing ability isn't ready for the next level. Prescott isn't a top 5 operator, and was rather easily dominating the exchanges for most of the fight.

    We'll see Mile High hang around the top10 fringes for a little while, but thats about it. Shame. I'm a big fan.

    The UC has been great to be fair. Even the non telivised stuff on the TR stream were good to watch. I think Im not going to enjoy watching the ghost of Casa turn up for a cheque though.

    That's very true. Alvarado didn't show any signs of being discouraged by the cuts. He seemed to fully understand the magnitude of the situation and had the stones to go after his dream.

    There was nothing wrong with the Prescott-Alvarado at stoppage. Prescott was badly hurt, nearly out on his feet.

    The fight earlier today between Fury and Pajkic, now THAT was a bad stoppage.

    Prescott gets absolutely screwed 2 fights in a row.

    Great fight though. Mad heart from Alvarado.

    Really enjoyed these undercards

    Not looking forward to seeing Bradley beat up an ancient Casamayor though :-(
