    Lets be real about this Canelo can beat the Kirklands and Angulos of his division and people like you will still say he's fighting Tomato cans. It's a no win situation and what it comes down to is that you hate him because he's more popular thatn whatever fighters you cheer for.
    I don't hate the guy (I don't even know him!) and he is not more popular than the fighters are cheer for. But anyway Canelo is nothing special he looks like he is planted in cement in the ring and kid just doesn't move his head. He got KD by lightweight in Jose Cotto and could not finish Hatton but Rhodes is nothing special either. Either way nothing impressive should come out of this and is at best an undercard fight in some ****ty independent PPV.

AND FOR THE 1000TH TIME WHO HAS THIS BUM BEAT THAT HAS ANY RELEVANCE.
        funny, yet hes rated top ten by Ring, boxrec, espn, and east side boxing. guess we should just ignore that the Lockett loss was at middleweight and 5 years ago, right? and that hes been beating decent guys like Moore, Vuma and Woolcombe and hasnt lost since moving to 154(5 years ago).

        people were angry and complaining that Rhodes wasnt getting the shot at the vacant title to begin with, its not like people are just making **** up about him just because Alvarez is signed to fight him now.

        try actually watching some boxing instead of fiddling around on boxrec.

          Anyone expecting canelo to immediately be fighting the cottos dizzy's and pwill's of the world needs to step back to reality. Rarely do first time, very young beltholders start fighting the best in their divisions immediately. I mean look at juanma, Ricky burns, Andre berto etc.
          All the men you listed bro have taken heat for the opponents they are fighting,juanma not so much anymore he has stepped it up,and when Canelo fights a Kirkland Angulo Cotto Dizzy etc i will give him his just props but until then a fight against an overhyped rhodes does not impress me,the guy is 34 and has lost everytime he has stepped up this match will be no different.

              And suddenly Kirkland and Angulo move their head LOL!!! And when in the blue hell did a LW Knock Down Canelo I must of missed something unless your are referring to Canelo geting briefly stunned by Cotto and dominating every second of every round after that.

                Benitez was fighting HOF Antonio Cervantez at 17 years old and guys like Leonard before he was even Canelo's age, Vargas was fighting guys like Quartey, Wright and Trinidad at Canelo's age. Rhodes doesn't even compare hell he can't even clean their asses so don't come up to me with this BS about a big step up in competion. Yeah he step up from bum to almost bum!

                    Benitez was done when he was 24, vargas was done in his mid twenties as well and trinidad and Vargas had 300+ Amature bouts before they turned pro even at a young age.

                    But I can see how you reached that conclusion when you leave out thing like details, facts, and logic LOL!

                      Like cheese to a rat, you bit.


                      I was just making a point about how YOU ***** and moan every time Cotto takes a fight with somebody.

                      And yeah, all kidding aside, this Rhodes dude just might be the one to expose Canelo's limited talent.
