Fight Preview: Mike Alvarado vs Ruslan Provodnikov

This Staurday at 1st Bank Center in Denver Colorado, Mike Alvarado and Ruslan Provodnikov will face off for Alvarado's Jr Welterweight Championship title.  These 2 warriors are coming off of great fights where they displayed great courage and will.  Alvarado defeated Brandon Rios capturing the title, and Ruslan came off a 'Fight of the Year' candidate fight against Timothy Bradley, where despite coming on the short end of the fight, he won the respect of the boxing fans with his valiant performance and effort.
It'll be interesting if Alvarado can maintain his willingness to try and outbox the slugger Provodnikov, but only time will tell if we fans will be treated to an all out brawl.  Both fighters have shown that they  can go all out in toe to toe action, so many boxing experts and fans are excited to what can be a 'Fight of the Year' candidate between these two sluggers.  Ruslan is expected to come at Alvarado putting the pressure and bringing the fight to Mike, it'll be up to Alvarado on how he handles the sure onslaught.  Looking forward to Saturday to witness what can sure be a great fight, prepare for fireworks.
Alvarado vs Provodnikov will fight for the Jr Welterweight Championship and will be broadcasted by HBO Championship Boxing at 7pm PST.

Fight Review: Marquez vs Bradley

By Miguel Maravilla at ringside

 WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (31-0, 12 KOs) scored a twelve round split decision over 40-year-old four-division world champion Juan Manuel Marquez (55-7-1, 40 KOs) on Saturday night at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. In a tactical battle between counter punchers, the younger, quicker Bradley usually able to get off first. Marquez did well in exchanges, which were far fewer than he wanted. Marquez had his best round in round nine as he rattled Bradley. Marquez continued to come on down the stretch, but it was too little, too late. Bradley almost floored Marquez with a left hook in a late flurry in the waning seconds. Scores were 115-113 Marquez, 116-112, 115-113 Bradley.

Fight Preview: Marquez v Bradley

This Saturday Night at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Juan Manuel 'Dinamita' Marquez will meet Timothy 'Desert Storm' Bradley.  Bradley will put his WBO World Welterweight Championship on the line against ring legend and 4-time World Champ, Juan Manuel Marquez.  Both fighters are coming off wins against the great Manny Pacquiao, and are now trying to escalate their status, especially Timothy Bradley.  Marquez has proven and made his mark into the sport, Bradley is attempting to leap into stardom by defeating 2 ring legends in consecutive fights.  These two fighters have the ability to make this a great fight, but they both are going to have to be willing to trade.  Despite  Bradley stating that he will use his boxing skills against Marquez, you have to believe Bradley will feel he has to show Marquez that he can trade blow for blow against the future Hall of Famer.  Marquez is coming towards the end of his career, and how would nothing more than becoming a champion for the fight time in his illustrious career.  Bradley must be careful if he does indeed decide to box against possibly the greatest counter-puncher in the fight game.  Marquez would not mind turning this into a war, knowing that he has the power to test that chin of Bradley's that took quite a beating on his last bout versus Ruslan Provodnikov earlier in the year.  This becomes the classic, new and upcoming champ attempting to polish up his profile going up against a future hall of fame boxer who is trying to prove that he still has plenty of gas left in his tank.   Despite the circumstances, fight fans are always in for a treat during a Juan Manuel Marquez boxing match witnessing one of the best ever to lace up a pair of gloves.
Marquez v Bradley is promoted by Top Rank promotions and will be televised on HBO Pay-Per-View, live from the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.
Also in action will be Orlando Cruz versus Orlando Salido for the vacant WBO Featherweight Championship.  A classic Puerto Rico vs Mexico boxing match.

Noez Prediction:
Juan Manuel Marquez by Unanimous Decision
Orlando Salido by Split Decision

Video: Marco Polo Feat. Organized Konfusion "3-0-Clock"

The lead-single from Marco Polo's forthcoming LP, PA2: The Director's Cut, accomplishes what no one else has been able to pull off in over a decade--reunite Organized Konfusion. Since the duo disbanded in 1997, there has been no new OK material and every few years or so the usual "reunion rumors" emerge and then disappear.
