Mike '303' Alvarado On HBO Saturday

Colorado's standout boxer Mike '303' Alvarado (32-0, 23 KOs) is set to make an HBO PPV appearance Saturday night versus Mauricio Herrera (18-1, 8 KOs).

Alvarado made it clear during a pre-fight press conference that he's nothing short of ready.

“I haven’t felt this good and this prepared for a fight in a long time.

“Fans can expect to see the warrior they saw in the Prescott fight but with better stamina and a new skill set.”

The noted Prescott fight was Alvarado's most recent and took place back in November of 2011 on the Pacman vs. Marquez II card.

The bout ended up a war by the time it was done as the 31 year old Alvarado pulled off a bloody, come-from-behind 10th round stoppage.

On Saturday night, Alvarado will be facing an equally hungry fighter looking to create his own legacy in Herrera. And by the sounds of it, he's (Herrera) confident he has devised a plan to get the win.

“He’s in for a fight. My awkwardness, my jab and my movement will frustrate him, but I’ll do more than box.

"The plan is to do a little bit of everything. I’ll stick and move and I’ll stand and fight. We’ll give him everything and see if he can take it.”
