    Alvarado should be ashamed of himself for robbing the fans with that **** poor performance. This could have been a final fight ending with a bang and having the rivalry compared to so many other great trilogies. Props for Rios for finishing the job, but it was more Alvarado who beat himself more than what Rios already did.

    F&ck Arum for even making this fight happen. SMH

    Alvarado doesn't seem to worry about risking things when he's hitting the bottle and the meth or driving around with a gun as a felon. But take a few punches to the head and "Ohhh, my future man...Gotta think about my career."

    It's not like the guy showed up and rolled over. He literally took a hospital inducing beating until he was unfit to continue.

    If you were his cornerman and or friend would you have sent him out for the 4th?

    Actually put a close friend in Mike's place to have some semblance of perspective here.

    Close friend? I don't associate myself with meth addicts and people who don't even train for fights :good

    If anyone cared about him he would have never been in the ring and would be somewhere getting his sh!t together. You don't see a guy like that in the gym for a whole camp and not know you're sending him to a beatdown. They knew.

    The moment I saw Mike I knew he had no chance and this would end up being sad. I wouldn't be surprised if he fails the post fight drug test and has meth in his system.

    Your constant meth hunches are one of the things that swayed me into betting on Rios via KO

    Thanks sir ' :lol:

    I used to be around a lot of local metal bands, here in Florida (no one famous) I know meth when I see it. Personally I'm a snobby straight edge guy that can't stand drugs because I saw what its done to my friends a few of them are dead. Yeah I know boo hoo cliché cliché cliché:|:|:| but its true.

    It is rolling over....not training for a fight is complete acquiescence. What did he expect was going to happen when he is pulling stupid **** like that three weeks before the fight? He is supposed to be a professional and needs to grow the hell up.

    Didn't Slyk make the meth call on this as well?

    He may pass the drug test. Meth doesn't hang around that long. I think max detection time is about three days, but I can't swear to that.

    I'm not disagreeing that he's completely unprofessional in his preparation, simply that he didn't fold like a lawn chair. He didn't lay down.

    The guy got ****ed up. He didn't mount any kind of offense and go out guns blazing, but he didn't exactly do something as distasteful as rolling over.
