a lot of PR hate toward canelo...dude's are mad jealous cause the kid is the fight before a HUGE fight in MAY-MOSLEY. that's right PR, face it, MEXICANS are ALWAYS gonna be the bigger draw. "oh its cause we're just an island blah blah blah..." man STFU already. i'm amazed by this hate, all my boys from PR actually think this kid has talent, but he's 19!! damn man, of course he cant be in the ring with top 10! how genius! thats why he's called a "prospect"! if you're on this page to simply hate...then in the words of my boy george lopez..."MMLV" = mamame la ver... Viva Mexico cabrones! Dude u are a ****ing idiot , I know the kid is 19 , AND???? hes fighting a gate keeper at best??? and he is hyped. because???????? I dont see know talent , he swings soft and slow , he gets hit , he hasnt fought nobody. I dont see any potential in him and I'm sorry if u wanna call me a mexican hater then go right ahead . i can whipe my *** with ur irrelevant comments , Juanma???? **** Juanma!!! whos talking bout Juanma , Why r u so mad that I dont see canelo as a threat at all. chavez jr will beat him , thats how much he ***** , chavez jr vs canelo will be a hbo hyped job's war , and u know it.

Canelo is wack man just accept it. He will get run over by the division's best. Like I said , and nobody answered. Face first warriors are out of style , Urango will put him to sleep. Even hatton. Collazo can fight him and make him a *****. bradley will scare him off with his muscles. The kid aint cutting it and u know that man. So yeah I will stop pointing out the obvious if it makes u enjo ur "prospect" (what a prospect) i guess kinda like ***** asss juanma ducks caballero even when cab calls him out the way he does. dude STFU. i would love to beat ur stupid *** right about now. this kis is 19 you ****!!!! does ur retarded brain not understand that????!!!! pendejo mama verga!
