    Is Saul Alvarez the next Oscar?

    Do you think this kid with the right matchmaking can get to the popularity level Oscar did? If i was managing this kid i would put him in with Shane Mosley and Chavez Jr. in his next couple of fights to really build him up to a household name.

      I think if he was to step up now he would lose but he is still young and there is room for improvement. If GB matches him the right way for now and builds him up i think he could become boxings next big superstar. Not the most talented or best fighter but the most marketable.

          A fight with Chavez Jr and then a fight with a shot Mosley makes a lot of sense and will build his name with the casual fans.

              He'll never appeal to the American audience to the extent Oscar did.

                The english part will hurt him but he can learn. With the proper fight selection he doesnt have to be as skilled as Oscar.

                  No he wont but he can surpass him with Mexican Americans and has already surpassed him in popularity in Mexico from what i have heard.

                    Maybe,He is already popular and he really hasint fought anyone.Imagine
                    if he fights someone like cotto or margarito,angulo,chavez jr and beats them?
                    He can be bigger then he already is.Learning english is a must for him.
