Comments Thread For: Alvarez vs Rhodes Inches Closer: WBC Orders The Fight

[vicmatic1]

Main reaso is because he is WAY too dangerous

Also, I think HBO said they want nothing to do with him until he sorts out his legal problems

i figured that was the reason lol..not because hes not available unless hes fighting martinez

I think angulo can k.o. any guy 154lb, hes not the same fighter since cintron, more power faster hands n a lil quicker footspeed, if they have rematch angulo vs cintron i think angulo would k.o him, i think i remember angulo got that fight on short notice

[chiguy91]

this is a legit fight, good for saul. i wanted to see saul fight k9 or rhodes, so either one being made is good....and to tx_boxing, i would like to see angulo/cintron rematch as well.

I forgot to speak about canelos fight i dont think ive ever seen rhodes, but hopefully hes a good challenge for canelo, canelo got a long way to go to really be 154lb champ, hopefully he can be at least a good top ten

[lopez36]

good,like i said before,it's the right thing to do,whether rhodes is good or not,he's ranked and he should get the opportunity instead of saul fighting some welter...i know this fight isn't yet signed and it's still a while till june,but i'm curious who his opponent after rhodes will be,lol,if he wins

Don't know anything about El Perro being M.I.A. but I do know that you are right about HBO not wanting to televise him until he gets everything sorted out and that by itself removes him from the list since the point is to build Canelo's T.V. clout (or for HBO to profit from Canelo whichever way you want to look at it).

I will say that Perro vs. Cotto would be a great, competitive fight.

No one is scared of angula he got beat already by a rican cintron cotto will ko angulo and quintana would.outbox.him like cintron did angula is a journeyman nothing more

u meant to say no one is scared of miguel cotta. He already got ktfo by a mexican in Margarito and a Filipino in Manny and he would get outboxed and ktfo by martinez and ko'd by Angulo.

PRBOXINGCOTTO always finds a way to talk about Cotto, in a thread that doesn't concern him, get a life. Anyways Rhodes won't pose much of a challenge I don't think he is that much of a step up in competition, he is however on a nice winning streak, is actually a light middle and actually deserves a title shot more than Hatton did

You're contradicting yourself.

Hes a step up in every way possible.

That's not fair to Vanes, who was supposed to have an eliminator with Rhodes to get a crack at Alvarez. But nobody cares about Vanes around here...
