Bad Left Hook on MMA Nation: Mayweather-Mosley Recap, Mayweather-Pacquiao, Mosley's Future, and A Little Saul Alvarez

Last night I was a guest on MMA Nation with Luke Thomas on 106.7 The Fan in Washington DC. I've been on several times now with Luke after and before big fights, and it's always a pleasure.

This time around, we discussed the Mayweather-Mosley fallout, the possibility of Mayweather-Pacquiao, Shane Mosley's future in boxing (if any), Floyd's standing as an all-time great, and Saul Alvarez. I did radio in Colorado Springs this evening too on 1300 AM The Sports Animal with Len Williams, and both Luke and Len brought up Alvarez as one of the things that really turned their head during the show. I'm telling you: Alvarez is going to make some damn good money in his career. As I said this evening on The Sports Animal, Alvarez will lose some fights along the way, but people are going to LOVE watching him fight.

Anyway, the audio from MMA Nation last night is below for those that missed it. The full show can be listened to over at BloodyElbow.com.

Saul Alvarez is a guy I will be tracking from now on. Wow, he impressed me.

This has been the most life-affirming thing for me, to know you're valued and then show your resolve to not just curl up and die,

ditto

Showed a lot of heart and made adjustments from the 1st round. He’s still very green and needs to fight smarter earlier but he should be very good in a few years.

I enjoyed the entire PPV

It was a good PPV for boxing. I’m not of the mindset that MMA and boxing should be an US versus THEM thing. I believe there is plenty of market and respect for both. I think at the end of the day that you are either a fan of combat sports or you aren’t.
