Canelo Alvarez vs. James Kirkland

VG_Addict12y ago

Who would have won if this fight had happened, and Kirkland was 100% healthy?

good fight ....50/50 to me ..a hypejob with a notch higher than average skills vs a fighter with good power and sh1t chin .. they belong to each other ..imo How is he a hypejob if he has "higher than average skills"? :footinmou btw how many of your posts are anything other than hating on non Pinoy boxers?

That's easy work for Canelo IMO. Canleo via KO within 5 rounds

12y ago

Canelo would win by early KO in my opinion. Kirkland is easy to hit and can't take a punch that well. Canelo would hurt him early and finish him off.

12y ago

I would say canelo,,, more skilled and kirkland has zero defense and is chinny,,, not seth mitchell chinny but fernado vargas type chinny

12y ago

i actually just met kirkland at outback steakhouse in milpitas CA last week, he's in good shape but i still take canelo

12y ago

at the time they was trying to make the fight when Kirkland clearly wasn't 100%...CANELO! But even now I think Canelo would find a way to get it to the Cards and get the Decision

12y ago

Kirkland right now is nothing of Kirkland of old and since he has left Wolfe all the more different healthy or not. So I would go with Canelo. Though I would prefer Canelo/Angulo for a better match up...
