Richard Schaefer: Canelo's people have contacted me about fighting Kirkland.

Hey Phantom I posted this in another thread but check out the WBCs wording on the Kirkland Angulo fight. http://theboxingtribune.com/2011/11/...gulo-in-a-war/ Its at the end of the article

Very interesting. Jose Saul giving himself a way out.

We shall see what happens.

1. Different fight.

2. Canelo doesn't hit nearly as hard as Angulo

3. Angulo may have loss either way. We don't know.

1. I know its a different fight, but the weaknesses were apparent and that's why Canelo's team jumped at the chance.

2. I agree, but he doesn't have to hit as hard, Kirkland gets hit a lot and the compound of punishment will favor Canelo

3. Possible.... but that doesn't mean Kirkland isn't heavily flawed as is Angulo.

Canelo is as heavily flawed, and way more robotic.

I agree they are both heavily flawed. I'm not saying Canelo is something special. Just that he can beat Kirkland and get a big boost in hype because the HBO crew blew the meaning of his victory over Angulo and immediately called canelo out for him.

alvarez needs this to prove himself a legit champ. i hope this gets made instead of chavez jr tbh, even that will never happen.
