Aging Antonio Margarito (39-8) reportedly will continue his comeback with a fight against Ramon ?Inocente ?Alvarez in Baja, California on August 13th. Alvarez aged 29 and sporting a 23-4-2 (15) record, is the older brother of Saul Canelo Alvarez and is a step up for Margo who claims he is fit and ready–damaged eye and all.
Perhaps his rationale for taking this risky bout is that he is hoping a win over Canelo?s brother will get him a big step closer to that huge opportunity and payday?possibly against Canelo himself. .
?Inocente? is on a 10-fight undefeated streak against respectable opposition (including Ben Tackie, Vivian Harris, and tough Omar Chavez) and has not lost since 2012.. He is better than Jorge Paez Jr., ?The Tornado?s? last opponent and the thinking here is that he will end Margo?s career once and for all. If so, it will be a sad ending to what was once a great but then became a highly controversial career, and many will take pleasure in his demise.
