James Kirkland's own interview about Canelo, LA Times

[ИATAS]

so why the hell does he says he would do it for 3 mill? Thats a straight btch move. He should of just said he wasnt healed and needed more time no one would be flaming him. Plus why would he accept the fight in the first place is what ticks me off.

he knows he's not going to get that of money. what he's saying is the only way he'd fight injured is if he got some crazy amount of money for it.

why take the fight in the first place then?

[KnockUTheFukOut]

if he is not 100% then he is not 100%

they said he wouldn't be ready until October, then Paul Williams have his Tragedy and now everyone is trying to RUSH HIM BACK

why are people act as if Kirkland is saying "I WILL NEVER FIGHT CANELO", the fight is just not happening in September

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

None of that changes the fact that he told his managers that he was injured and couldn't fight and then he turned around and asked for more than double the money - and says he's not 100% - but for more than double he'll do it.

[cupocity303]

Schaffer: Paul Williams wants 4 million. From what I hear he is fine, he just wants more money.


P.Will: No, I'm paralyzed from the neck down (u kno wat i'm sayin), of course I'll fight Canelo for 4 million in a wheel chair if I have to (u kno wat i'm sayin) but if they aint gonna pay me that type of money (u kno wat i'm sayin) then I might as well stay put (u know what i'm sayin) and go fishing on that boat.

All he could be saying is that for $3 Million he would be willing to put his career in jeopardy and fight with one arm...that doesn't not mean he is or would be 100% all of a sudden because of the Money

[Mr. Fantastic]

he knows he's not going to get that of money. what he's saying is the only way he'd fight injured is if he got some crazy amount of money for it.

That's how I'm seeing it. I don't see it as Kirkland ducking or anything. I'm sure if he didn't need that surgery and was healthy he would of taken the fight.

[Mike Haynes]

but kirkland is saying is that he is scared (if you want to use that strong word) because he has an injury. He's not denying it. It's his whole point. I'm sure when he's okay, he'll be fine with accepting a million. Right now it's not worth risking his career in his biggest fight while injured just for a million.

thank you!!!!

[Mike Haynes]

What a bunch of clowns. Next y'all are gonna be telling Paul to get up and stop playing b/c he signed the contract. Just shut up and stop hating on Kirkland.
