Alvarez (86 kg) defeated by RSC in the last round the representative of Kyrgyzstan, Emir Khan Razhapov, an outcome that kept his team undefeated, victorious in the opening round through Kryhztian Barrera (75 kg).

The Cuban southpaw hit better from the beginning, with good work with both hands, complemented with effective defense and elegant mobility to complete an approach that left the opponent without arguments.
