40 years old Mexican boxing legend Juan Manuel "Dinamita" Marquez (55-7-1(40 KO) rated number 3 in the world and number 1 in Mexico will face much younger, 33 years old American Mike "Mile High" Alvorado (34-2-0(23 KO) rated number 6 in the USA and number 14 in the world this Saturday evening, May 17 in Forum, California, USA. This will be a 12 rounds bout with no title at stake.
Juan Manuel Marquez comes to this
fight after a loss by majority decision against at that time unbeaten
American Timothy Bradley(30-0-0) on October 2013. Before that he won by a
last second KO round 6 against Philippine Manny Paquiao (54-4-2) on the
end of 2012.
Mike Alvorado comes to this fight
after a loss by TKO round 10 in a very tough fight against very hard
hitting Russian Ruslan Provodnikov(22-2-0) on October 2013. Before that
he won a rematch by unanimous decision against at that time unbeaten
American Brandon Rios on March 2013.
This fight can be the candidate for
the fight of the year, as Marquez is a great counter-puncher and likes
to box and brawl, and Mike Alvorado is a pure brawler with some boxing
skills. We will see a lot of hard shots on this one.....
The fight is much looked forward to with Amir Khan stepping in the ring after a long time. With or without cable, watch Amir Khan Vs Terence Crawford live online from anywhere!
