This is a huge fight where both men have much to win and much to lose. In early 2013, these were two of the most talked about fighters in the division, with Marquez riding high off his epic KO of Manny Pacquiao and Alvarado coming off a win over his rival Brandon Rios. But a pair of upset losses to Timothy Bradley and Ruslan Provodnikov slowed both men down. The result is absolutely huge stakes for this fight. The winner is right back at the very top of the division and will be at the front of the line for a PPV encounter with Pacquiao. The loser will be on the first 2 fight losing streak of his entire career.

Also on the HBO card will be Viktor Postol vs. Selcuk Aydin. That's not a bad fight by any means, but it's not one that draws a ton of fan interest. Postol is ranked in the top 10 by Ring Magazine, so we'll see how he does with the added exposure here.

HBO / TV Azteca (MEX) / Main Event PPV (AUS), 10:15 pm EDT, Juan Manuel Marquez vs Mike Alvarado. The winner of this fight is likely to face Manny Pacquiao later this year, making this a high-stakes matchup for both guys. The fight has a 143-pound catchweight limit, with Alvarado coming up from 140 and Marquez playing his A-side hand and getting himself a catchweight when this could easily have been fought at 147, which a fight with Pacquiao would be. BLH will have live coverage.

UniMas, 11:30 pm EDT, Andy Ruiz Jr vs Manuel Quezada, Anton Novikov vs Javier Castro, Jose Benavidez vs Angel Hernandez. Ruiz vowed to not fight again until he stopped being so fat. I don't know what his condition is at this point.

DENVER -- The punches kept landing long after Mike Alvarado lost his world junior welterweight title in his last fight.

Only, these were mental jabs being delivered as he berated himself for weeks over not taking his bout with Russian bruiser Ruslan Provodnikov more seriously last October.

When he returned to training, Alvarado placed an enormous promotional banner from the fight on a wall in the gym -- to constantly refresh his memory as to what can happen when he stops being Mike Alvarado the boxer and tries to be Mike Alvarado the brawler.

He has a chance to get his career back on track when he faces 40-year-old Juan Manuel Marquez at the Forum in Inglewood, California, on Saturday. The winner will be the mandatory challenger to World Boxing Organization welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao in the fall.

''This gives me more of a focus, knowing I have an opportunity for a bigger opportunity,'' said Alvarado, who's moving up a weight class to take on Marquez in a 12-round bout televised live on HBO. ''Just do my thing.''

He's actually surprised a bout of this magnitude happened so quickly, especially after losing to Provodnikov just seven months ago when he couldn't answer the bell late in the fight. And especially when he hardly resembled the boxer who had risen to the top.

That Provodnikov fight still haunts Alvarado. In the ring, he did everything he wasn't supposed to do as he tried to brawl with the powerful boxer instead of move around and look for an opening.

Then again, Alvarado's training leading up to the fight wasn't exactly stellar. The Denver boxer was distracted by his celebrity status around the Mile High City and didn't treat the bout with proper respect, which he and his training team readily acknowledge.

''Told him, 'See what happens when you don't take things as seriously as you should,''' said Henry Delgado, who serves as Alvarado's manager and recently moved the team to Los Angeles to train without distractions. ''That wasn't Mike Alvarado (that night). We had a long talk and said, 'Look, you got there and you let it go. But now you know when you get there, how to stay there.'''

Alvarado (34-2) insists his focus is squarely on Marquez, not down the line for a possible chance at Pacquiao.
