“Mike Alvarado is a strong fighter. He likes to fight. I like to fight. It should be a great fight…I need to use all of my experience in the ring. This fight will be a war,” stated Marquez.

“We all want the fifth title. It’s very important to all of us. That’s the motivation now to keep going…the first thing is Alvarado, but we know that the fifth fight with Pacquiao is a possibility.”

Mike Alvarado said during his call “Style-wise, I feel that Marquez is tailor-made. He’s a legend. He’s made his mark in the sport. He’s not a very hard man to figure out. Coming off a loss for him it’s going to be a very interesting fight. We’ll see how Marquez has left in his career. I’m going exploit every weakness and see how much he has left in him.”
