On Saturday night, Juan Manuel Marquez and Mike Alvarado will be facing off on HBO with the WBO International Welterweight Title on the line. Both men are coming off of a disappointing loss in their last bout, so it will be important for both men to come away with the win as they look to move forward in their career.
When Marquez steps into the ring, he anticipates a hard fought war that should get the crowd at The Forum in Inglewood, California on their feet.
“This fight is important because Mike Alvarado lost his last fight and I lost my last fight,” Marquez said, via the New York Post. “This fight will be a war because Alvarado likes to fight. I like to fight and the fans win because they like to see these kinds of fights.”
With a win, each man has a potential bout with Manny Pacquiao in their sights.
“This fight is very important for both of us, and a win here will lead to bigger fights,” Alvarado added. “There is a lot involved in this fight, both mentally and for our careers. I am focusing on getting this win.”
