    He was what? 19 when he fought Jose Miguel Cotto?
    And twenty when he fought Hatton.

    What had you or I acheived by 20?
    All that's fine. But his accomplishments are still fabricated, made up, really gbp not his.

      Alvarez will be lost when Paul eats his shots and throws 5 in return.

            I wish I could go...

            If he beats Canelo he'll continue fighting and I could get to one. He has a chance.

            We know what Paul will bring, the mystery is how will Canelo deal with a guy who can take a shot and wont stop coming.

            Paul is going to train his ass off for this fight this is his chance.

              I thought Bute was going to beat the hell out of Froch. In fairness to Bute I think he tried to join the tournament and he was champion enough to come to Froch's territory after trying to get a fight with Ward. So he was willing to fight the best and he got crushed. I wish him well. Maybe I am wrong again but I think Canelo is underrated. Lots of people picked Mosley to beat him. I think he will beat anyone they put him in with. He was getting trashed for not fighting tough guys but he is trying to fight them now. He offered a fight to Kirkland but Kirkland's shoulder needed more time to heal so he is fighting the still dangerous Williams. I think he beats Williams easily. Then bring on the best and he will beat them. Cotto,Mayweather, I double dare you to fight Canelo. Ortiz, you think he was given a tittle, then try and take it from him.Lara is the biggest threat to Canelo in my opinion because Lara has such a good straight left. But I have faith in Canelo to beat him. Time will tell. But it is time to quit trashing him for not fighting the best because he is fighting the best starting with Williams.

                Yeah, after how many bogus title defenses. But yes you were wrong with Bute & you will be wrong when ginger bucks up to the Punisher.

                  Paul Williams isn't just going to lose this fight, he is going to get knocked the **** out. We saw what Lara did to him and while Lara is a more technically skilled boxer than Canelo, all he was doing was taking steps back and throwing the left hand, the same thing over and over and over again, and he was landing every single time he threw it. I'm expecting the same thing to happen here except it will be the right hand and Canelo won't just back up and coast like Lara did, once he hurts Paul, he will put them together and try to finish him. Williams has a very low boxing IQ and doesn't have any defence. People keep mentioning his height and reach but it means nothing if you don't know how to use it and he doesn't know how to use it. Don't be suprised if he gets caught with a punch that he doesn't see and then the lights go out. The guy has taken an awful lot of punishment in his career therefore it's highly delusional to think that he will just walk right through Canelo's punches for 12 rounds. It's not gonna happen. He's going to get beaten badly. I think it will be somewhat competitive and entertaining though.

                    2 thing fundamentally wrong with this long paragraph.

                    1. Lara is southpaw, Canelo is orthodox.

                    2. Canelo isn't as good as Lara, period.
