June, 2011 is some kind of golden age for young Mexican brawlers about whom you can say the following three things: 1. They're usually pretty fun to watch because they're aggressively offensive-minded and sinfully hittable; 2. They're wildly popular in some measure because of something they were born with; and 3. There's hope for their future, but there's also a strong chance that they won't ever be very good.Earlier this month on HBO it was middleweight Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., he who was born with the name of his legendary father. This Saturday on HBO, it's junior middleweight Saul Alvarez, he who was born with red hair atypical for a Mexican.
Chavez got himself a stern test from European interloper Sebastian Zbik. And like Chavez, Alvarez this weekend figures to be in against the toughest opponent of his career, European interloper Ryan Rhodes.
