    ARTICLE: Kirkland Suffers Shoulder Tear against Molina/ Williams-Kirkland in talks

    Junior middleweight contender James Kirkland suffered two tears in his right shoulder during his controversial 10th-round disqualification victory against Carlos Molina and will undergo arthroscopic surgery Monday.


    Sorry if this was already posted.

    I just wanted to touch on two things:

    1. Kirkland almost KO'd Molina despite a torn shoulder in 2 places and 118 clinches? Sounds like a beast to me.

    2. Why is Kirkland fighting Williams and not Canelo? That's awfully weird if you ask me.

    Thoughts?

    1) What is beastly about losing just about every round before the KD?

    2) because Canelo is being preserved for Floyd and cannot be in a remotely competitive fight

      1. What don't you understand about the man was clinched 118 times and had a torn shoulder in 2 places and still knocked his opponent down?

      2. Canelo's the champ. Shouldn't be fighting Mosley. If he doesn't fight Floyd, it should be Kirk.

          No, I'm saying he's fighting Williams because Canelo won't fight Kirkland.

              and why should canelo waste his time on a bum that his sparring partner dismantled?

                  williams and kirkland would be hellish

                  james needs to get healthy first. shoulder injuries for a boxer are no joke.

                    1) i would understand if he actually won more then 1 round. Also i dont think the injury happened in the first minute and he was thoroughly outbox from round 1

                    2) Blame GBP
