Congrats Kevin, looks like it will be Kevin Rivers vs Tommy Roque from the USMC - DC/MD vs NC/VA. This will be a tough fight for Kevin Rivers. My prediction is Tommy will win convincingly.
I hope Kevin is in shape he will get bodied. UPDATE - Tommy stopped a kid with some beautiful combinations the kid basically fought like Kevin Rivers and got stopped with some great body and head work from Roque.
So Roque stopped a boxer but you can guarantee that boxer did not have the skills of Rivers. Like I said, it won't even be close. I have seen Roque box and I have seen Rivers. I know who is going to win.

It won't even be close. Roque is good but not in the same class as Rivers. Rivers either stops him or wins convincingly.
