The bout will have the WBA's interim junior middleweight title at stake. The winner will be positioned a for a shot at the WBA's regular champion Austin Trout.

So they fight...will mundine turn Trout down again?...If Alvarez wins he'll get beat worse this time vs Trout...hopefully Trout can stay in the US for his defense...

Damn, that's a dark gym. It looks more like a night club.

Alvarez has a good chance. Mundine isn't a 154 lb.er and may leave his fight in the gym. I hope I don't see any scale tricks, such as; Alvarez will come in light, say 150, while Mundine comes in at 154 (158 or more actually) and the promoter blames Alvarez for overtraining. I've seen it before.
