Why this card matters
The only Alvarez card that pairs a signature with a memorabilia swatch, from the 20 July 2018 Knockout release — his last Topps product before leaving for ONE Championship. Cardboard Connection's checklist gives it parallels of Blue /35, Purple /25, Red /8 and Gold 1/1, and the same product also carries a plain Knockout Autograph, #KA-EA, with its own Green /50, Blue /35, Red /8 and Gold 1/1 run. Alvarez's base card in that set is #36.

- Insert number KAR-EA (Knockout Autograph Relic); the signature-only card is KA-EA
- Parallels: Blue /35, Purple /25, Red /8, Gold 1/1 — Collectibles.com registers the Blue #KAR-EA for Alvarez
- Product released 20 July 2018; 100-card base set with Alvarez at #36
| KA-EA and KAR-EA are the same card. | KA-EA is the autograph; KAR-EA adds a relic window. They have separate parallel ladders. |
Disputed
Whether an unnumbered base version of KAR-EA exists is unclear — Cardboard Connection lists only the four coloured parallels, and Collectibles.com registers only the Blue. What the relic swatch is (fight mat, glove, kit) is not stated by either source.
