alvarez is overrated i reckon

Rhodes doesn't get enough bouts, Alvarez is busy. The bout would be in the US; how would Ryan travel; (he did well across the penines but the Atlantic is different). I think that although I'd imagine Rhodes would beat Hatton at light middle, he wouldn't stop him. The Moore result was brilliant for Ryan styles and weight making had at least a part in the victory. There's no way that Alvarez would lose on points v Rhodes in the states; ref: Ainscough v Reid (Prizefighter SuperMiddleweights).

For me, this is gonna be a classic match making error from golden boy. I think they'll under estimate Rhodes from the start, and they will live to regret it. Ryans time is now!

This is Ryan Rhodes' own view of the fight in an interview with Hatton TV
