Comments Thread For: Kirkland Says Canelo Will Need 'A lot More' To Beat Him

[-GDS-]

He punched himself out later in the fight and that's probably the only reason Kirkland won.

At any rate, Alvarez would annihilate him and he has faced better competition while not getting knocked out by a C- level fighter.

I won't bother reading or mentioning the other posts you've must've of made in the other pages, other than "Just cause he's black" post which honestly is unsurprising.

He punched himself out later in the fight and that's probably the only reason Kirkland won.

At what point. In what round. Show me instead of just talking @hit. Considering Angulo is a pressure fighter, this has got to be the dumbest excuse for a loss i've heard since "He only lost because you didn't watch it in slowmotion".

At any rate, Alvarez would annihilate him and he has faced better competition while not getting knocked out by a C- level fighter.

If Kirkland had Canelo's resume, he would be regarded as a ATG 154 pounder in the making.

Yea, easy to say things like that after the fight when Mosley performed so scary like.

Overall, Mosley won about the same rounds against Manny as Cotto won vs. mayweather so them swapping and facing each others leftovers is nothing new.

If there was no problem in Mayweather and Pacquiao facing Mosley, there's no problem with Canelo facing him either.

He needs to defend his crown against a ranked in his prime JMW, a worn shop warrior that hasn't won in 3 years, not a euro trash Rhodes, not a WW Hatton or a fat JWW Gomez or another past his prime WW Cintron, he needs to fight the Vanes, Trouts or Lara's of the world, the testing period is over either he swims with the sharks or he gets out of the water and go to the kiddies pool...

let it go bro....rise above the ***ery and lets keep it boxing!!...I like Kirkland's chances more than the average dude in this thread because I'm not the average dude in this thread...get it?!?....if you need a reason WHY I feel like I feel about this fight just ask....don't just assume!!

now we can add Kirkland to the list of fighters you don't like...so far its: Hopkins, Mosley, Peterson, Mayweather, Ward, Haye, Kirkland, and whoever else fits the description huh?...fall back bro...I won't respond so just pay me no mind...it costs nothing!!

Funny how they all they all have one thing in common.

F no. No way he takes the punishment that Shane took and everyone with sense knows he will have to deal with even more shots than that.

Canelo let Shane off the hook because he respected him so much as a kid.

Further evidence of how dumb you are. Not that you needed any more. Either that or you think everybody else is dumb enough to believe that BS.

How old are you? You sound like a kid with these nonesense post, yes Mosley is a HOF (maybe, he is a known cheater too) but he was old when he fought Canelo and we all knew that, is not that canelo make him old because his talents, he was already done...

Funny how a guy that is 54 is saying this. Everyone is old compared to you pops. Oh, and and you being red after 500+ posts shows that you opinion is idiotic, so why debate me?

I know more about modern boxing than you and know what I'm watching. Mosley proved he isn't done and when you see how bad Kirkland gets dusted when these two fight, I will come back and find you to say I told you so.

The fact that you're comparing the Mosley that fought Mayweather to the version that fought Canelo speaks for itself. That's beyond ****** and shows you're looking at this as a boxing fan boy. Not as an intelligent spectator.

Yeah those one sided losses to Mayeather and Pacquiao with the Mora draw in between sure proved a lot . Mosley has not won since the Margarito fight. I would tell you how long ago that was but there is no point with you.


The comical thing is that you actually believe you know what you're talking about. You're beyond delusional.

This is not even a debate, I had forgot more about boxing that you ever going to learn, first when I said "old" is because he is old for the sport he is practicing, if he was a golfer he will be in his prime, as a human being if he is not to damaged by the blows he has taken, specially from 09 to 2012, he is young and in great shape, I never say that Canelo will win or he will lose, I said IMO it was 50/50 fight, why? Because he is an unproven prospect, just because the Mexican media, GBP and Sillyman has been backing this kid up, it doesn't mean he is the real thing until he proves it, you like him so what, if you don't think that he has to prove himself to became an elite fighter and justified all that money that he is getting, then you are biased and afraid he will get starched the first time he meets a Lara kind of fighter or Trout or even Delvin Rodriguez, if Kirkland get dusted more power to Alvarez, he will show the world that although he was protected it was nothing to fear because the kid is/was ready for the elite, nothing more nothing less...
PS. I don't know about what the red thing have to do with knowledge, I don't need a color to tell me if I know something or not.

Kirkland got knocked out by a rangey nobody. Canelo has enough range and has the mentality to put together combinations to put Kirkland out. He's on the mental deficit path Judah is on. All the skills are there for Kirkland but eventually his own mind is what's going to bring him down.

What you said is more respectable than most of what I have read in here. Canelo may or may not beat Kirkland. But one thing is certain, Canelo has not fought a true top young hungry fighter to this day. He is being brought up slowly for a reason. He has shown flashes of his impressive skills but has yet to fight anybody who is capable of pushing him to the limit. Until that happens the jury is out on whether or not he will respond well to it.That is a fact regardless of how much a lot of people love him. Kirkland will be his most dangerous opponent yet and by a lot. A lot of people here **** on Kirkland but the guy has not taken anywhere near as easy a route as Canelo has. That should count for something.


If Canelo beats him he deserves a lot of credit for it.
