Former world junior welterweight champion Mike Alvarado will take on Josh Torres on June 25 in Dallas, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.
Henry Delgado, Alvarado’s manager and co-trainer, told ESPN.com on Monday that Alvarado has been clean and sober for a little over a year, and “he’s doing everything right. This is the first time he’s really training seriously since the [Mauricio] Herrera fight. That’s why I’m looking forward to see this Mike fight again.”
“Mike finally has his life together, and he’s taking care of business. He recently got married, and he’s doing great,” Delgado said. “He won a world title in spite of everything he was doing. Imagine Mike clean and focused 100 percent? Now he beats me to the gym, and I have to tell him to slow down and take it easy sometimes so he doesn’t kill himself in the gym.”
