All signs pointing to Marquez/Bradley. Best option for Alvarado now is to get Provodnikov and find a way onto the Mayweather undercard. Though the likelihood of that being allowed is almost zero since no matter what happened in the main event it would not be even remotely as exciting.

I think Alvarado had surgery after his last fight. Supposedly he is getting a hometown (Denver) fight probably against a tomato can.

Marquez looked shot against Mayweather a few years back, got claimed by a juice guy, looked like Mark McGuire against Pac man and suddenly is Earnie Shavers as opposed to the counter puncher he had been his whole career.

Now there is a blast from the past....Shavers....
I saw Oliver Mccall last year in Houston...i think he was fighting for 1K and all you can eat at Burger King.

Most state boxing commissions are worse than horse racing commissions. How some of these older guys are granted licenses to box is crazy.

Man you hit the nail on the head with this post. When I saw Marquez before that Pac Man fight. My first thought was he might kill him.. Bradley would be KO'd in the first. Score written all over this fight.

Trivia, who was the only guy that Earnie Shavers decked, who actually got up and knocked him out ? No fair google.

If you want to see a fight led that led to a huge score, watch Duran take apart a very tough Carlos Palomino before he fought Leonard the first time. Then go go watch Russian Rocky v. Bradley....Then imagine Bradley fighting Marquez and getting pummeled in the first.

I know it's not saying much, but I know much more about betting Boxing, than hosses, or at I'm better at it.

Mike cost himself the Pacman fight and a massive payday by not going to his PT after the surgery, hence it fell to Rios, who will almost definitely embarrass Manny. The guys at Delgado's (Alvarados local gym) were broken up pretty bad.

The word around here is, since yesterday anyway, that Provodnikov is very happy to fight Mike right here in Denver in Oct. Nov.

"I think he is a great warrior. In order to beat him I would have to break his will. I think technically he is a good fighter with good power. I would have to use my power to discourage him and stop him." Provodnikov on Alvarado. 'break his will', 'discourage him' This will be fight of the year without question.

I'm hoping Gennady Golovkin and Sergio Martinez can get something worked out. Sergio running around and peppering Golovkin, and Golovkin landing those power shots. If Golovkin can get past Martinez, then we start talking super fight with Andre Ward. A man can dream right?
