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

[Mr. Invincible]

Canelo is still unproven. He's a strong guy with a big punch, and a questionable chin.

Kirkland is no great fighter. And if Canelo is half as good as a few are saying on here, he'd waste Kirkland easily.

But I do feel this is gonna be more competitive than some are thinking. Canelo likes to fight in spurts and at his own pace.... Kirkland you have to figure will FORCE a fast pace with alot of punches being thrown... You have to wonder about Canelo if he cannot get Kirkland outta there within the first 4 rounds.... How does he deal with a guy forcing him to fight hard for 3 min. of each round???

I wouldn't be so fast to count Kirkland out. He's flawed as hell. But the guy is durable, has excellent stamina, power, and an amazing ability to recover.

What indicates that he has a questionable chin? He took several solid shots from Mosley.

Hilarious how one sided people's opinions are on this fight, after James faught a better opponent than anyone Canelo has ever faught in his life. Still, it's interesting to hear James talk about being ready in September, when before he was talking like he wouldn't be. Guess he figures this is the only time he'll get to fight Canelo, so he's just gotta make due.

Wtf...? Everyone knows what they are getting when they get in the ring with James Kirkland. They get a come forward head first defenseless no chin having ass fighter.

Good stay busy fight for Canelo.

Molina's as quality as they come at 154, and Kirkland who physically wasn't his best still came close to stopping him in the 10th. If you really believe Kirkland's a "Stay busy fight", I don't know what to tell you.

Canelo aint gonna do ish to Kirkland...can't wait for this fight to happen!!

I always thought that Kirkland was way too overrated. Personally, Saul Alverez would tee off on Kirkland with relative ease. It would take a boxer with decent technical ability to prove this and Kirkland will go down.

LOL that wasn't even a proper knockdown and way to ignore Kirkland losing almost every round before that one.

Nice try, but I actually saw the fight, and scored it according to what happened, and not by the commentary. Kirkland won no less than 3 rounds, and I've gave him 4, including the 10-8 round in the 10th, where Molina was in deep sh##, whether you admit it or not. I don't think he would had made it 6 more minutes.
