Saul Alvarez Is Seriouly Overrated, Ain't Nothing Special......

[lefthook2daliva]

I'm gonna' wait a little bit longer to jump on the Canelo train.

KOing a 39yo Baldomir (even though I thought he gave a pretty good performance, but was never really elite), while impressive, doesn't bring him all the way from prospect to upper tier contender in one move.

For one thing, he got hit too much and I'm wondering how fast he would look against another solid-propect, 20-something.

Alvarez almost got KTFO in the 1st round when he fought Jose Cotto

If Cotto would've not gassed like he always does, he would've ended it in that first round. But he took the dive. That's why GBP signed him after that fight(cotto) who signs a fighter after losing a fight? Unless Cotto was demoted to stepping stone by GBP. If Cotto would've put the pressure that Matgwa put on Juanma and landed as many Shots. Canelito wouldn't even be a topic in this forum.
