The first fight featured non-stop back-and-forth action, including in the unforgettable fifth round, until referee Pat Russell stepped in to stop it in the seventh round after Rios badly staggered Alvarado and had him defenseless on the ropes. At the time of the stoppage, two judges had the fight 57-57 while Rios led 58-56 on the third scorecard. Rios (31-0-1, 23 KOs), 26, of Oxnard, Calif., said, of course, he would have liked to fight Pacquiao, a fight worth millions more to him than Alvarado. But he also said he wanted to fight Alvarado (33-1, 23 KOs), 32, of Denver, again. Even before it was made, Rios said he's been watching their fight repeatedly, and not just for scouting purposes.
