am i the only one who thinks alvarez is going to get beat?

Waaaaar Caneloooooo!:boxing:

I don't think he'll get beat, but Baldomir is no push over, Alvarez will have to fight hard.

I pick TATA by KO in round 3 You wanna bet with me too? 500k? I got Alvarez, and you got Baldomir by KO in three.

Nah Baldomir is a fossil. Isn't he pushing 40?? And he was slow as hell 5/6 years ago how much more now??

De La Hoya was dropped by a 35-12 featherweight early in his career, and still has an iron jaw. Andre Ward was dropped by a bum early in his career. Pacquiao was flat out KOed by a bum early in his career. Wladimir Klitschko was TKOed by a bum when he was 22. Hopkins got dropped twice by a mediocre fighter Mayweather was cut and came fairly close to losing in his 2nd or 3rd fight JuanMa Lopez got dropped early in his career. point is: this is boxing. many great fighters have gotten dropped or even lost early in their career. At least Alvarez stood up from the shots he took, and at least he was only 19, and at least he fought a former title challenger. Good post.

In your dream. Paulie never stunned Cotto. That only Paulie and you think that. Did you see Alvarez legs after Jose landed that ice in round 1 ?

This will be a boring lopsided win for Alvarez.

man i dont have a lot of points but i wanna make my first bet i got 5 k on canelo any takers pm me

canelo was stunned in his last fight with cotto so i wouldn't be surprised if a huge ass 147 stunned him. i'm going with the hype, canelo on points that wasnt his last fight. he fought Cuello in his last fight, who gave Chavez Jr a very hard fight at 160lbs. Alvarez beat the **** out of Cuello, dropping him first to the head and then to the body in the first two rounds with left hooks. the fights on youtube, and shows that Alvarez already has improved from the Cotto fight: hes keeping his right hand glued to his jaw(he learned from the Cotto fight)

Lets bet 1M. You are considered a good mature poster... did you HAVE to show us Kessler's naked arse!?

my 500k to your 250k. id do it but already got a lot of my points tied up in baldomir - a fighter im not even really a fan of haha. i feel baldomir pulls the upset - but it sounds like you guys know both of these fighters better than me, so i won't be surprised by any means if alvarez wins it. also here is a quote from ESPN, looks like alvarez has some class: Baldomir, the former undisputed welterweight champ, was 153.4 pounds for a fight with Saul "Canelo" Alvarez that was contracted for 151 pounds. Alvarez was 150.5. Because Baldomir was more than two pounds over, he was also penalized 20 percent of his $60,000 purse by the commission. However, Alvarez, who is making $200,000, plus money from Mexican television rights, declined to take the extra $12,000 from Baldomir, according to Golden Boy.

This should be the main event of the night, IMO this will be the best match that night, not a big fan of Ortiz or Mora even though I always support Mex fighters This is a very big risk for Canelo, I think this will show if he's going to be the fighter we're expetcing him to be. Tata is slower but he's tough as nails and can take a bat to the skull no problem, I'd be surprised and stoked if Canelo can KO him, Doubt it though Bicentenario! Felicidades Mexico por 200 años de Independencia!

i dont know how past it baldomir is but if he aint that past it then i think he's gonna beat alvarez

I think Baldomir is a live dog, but I don't think he can pull the upset. Canelo by UD

baldomir is 40 yrs. old and hasn't had a meaningful win in 4 years.

He stunned him with a good shot, big fuckin' deal man. Stuff like that happens in boxing. Shit, feather fisted Paulie stunned Cotto. So how did he come close to getting knocked out, I don't understand that. In your dream. Paulie never stunned Cotto. That only Paulie and you think that. Did you see Alvarez legs after Jose landed that ice in round 1 ?

And Jose Cotto aint bum? He was bum in lightweight division then he moved up 3 division up and almost knocked ALvarez out in round 1 ! He stunned him with a good shot, big fuckin' deal man. Stuff like that happens in boxing. Shit, feather fisted Paulie stunned Cotto. So how did he come close to getting knocked out, I don't understand that.

Im liking this fight because TaTa is tough, he can take a shot but he really doesnt pack a bug punch. Alvarez takes this fight, I say by possible TKO but Tata is a cagey vet and you never know(punchers chance)...dont expect him to pull the upset.

Then you guys haven't watched Baldomir most recent fights, dude was getting rocked by bums man. No way Alvarez loses. And Jose Cotto aint bum? He was bum in lightweight division then he moved up 3 division up and almost knocked ALvarez out in round 1 !

Alvarez skills are so underrated. Vastly. This kid has a wide asset of skills that will be on full display vs. Baldi.
