    Who Has A Better Chance Against Canelo: Williams or Kirkland?

    Apparently these are the top 2 guys in line for the Canelo fight.

    The way I see it, it's Williams' workrate vs Kirkland's power. Who has the better shot IYO?

    Williams. He can steal wins with volume punching and he has the height and reach advantages. Whether he uses them is another story.

    I think Canelo can neutralize Kirkland and coast to an 8-4, 9-3 decision or score a late round tko.

        What the hell, I think the Punisher has enough left to be more of a threat than Kirkland. Kirkland has a better chance of knocking Alvarez out, but he has even more a chance of getting knocked out beforehand.

          As overrated as Williams is, I think Kirkland is the new P4P most overrated fighter. I would take Canelo to stop him relatively early.

            Williams. He does well against flat footed, stationary fighters. He can outspeed them and outwork them with volume. When he fights someone that moves, he's ***ed.

            Kirkland would have a punchers chance but probably get KOed in exchanges.

              Williams.....

              I see Canelo beating Kirkland fairly easily.

                If Canelo gets hit flush a few times from Kirkland, he gets sparked. However Ginger has a good chance of sparking him 1st.

                The Punisher has problems with good elite southpaws. Ginger is just a protected orthodox fighter.
