When Mike Alvarado is introduced to his home crowd in Denver before his much-anticipated fight with Ruslan Provodnikov on Oct. 19 (HBO) -- which we all expect to be a fight of the year candidate -- he will not be introduced with the interim tag attached to his 140-pound title. That is because Alvarado has been elevated by the WBO to the organization's full titleholder after Juan Manuel Marquez was stripped. Marquez won the vacant interim version of the title in April 2012 when he easily outpointed Sergey Fedchenko.
