Alvarado gunning for another shot at glory

Mike Alvarado is taking things one fight at a time - first in a bout with Brandon Rios later this month and then with his latest legal entanglement.

Alvarado ducked direct questions about his recent run-in with the law after prosecutors formally charged him earlier this week with a weapons offense after police said they found a handgun in his vehicle.

He insisted during a promotional event at his gym on Wednesday that he's not even thinking about the consequences of his that arrest. The only thing on his mind at the moment is Rios as they meet in the ring for a third and decisive time on Jan 24 in Broomfield, Colorado.
