Minute Maid Park, Houston, Texas - Junior middleweight contender James Kirkland is the much busier fighter, while former 154-pound champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez is more accurate with his power shots and has faced the much better opposition. Canelo will not want to get into a fire fight with Kirkland. 80% of Kirkland's thrown punches are power shots and 88% of his landed punches are power shots. Kirkland's chin can be dented. Canelo makes his return to HBO and TV Azteca, after fighting for the last few years under rival networks Showtime and Televisa.
