    I have to disagree, I think Quintana is still a very solid fighter who can be competitive with anyone. But yeah, Quintana-Canelo is NOT a PPV..

        Good fight IMO Quitana is a southpaw with good pop coming off a decent win, could cause Canelo some problems.

        Quintana still has a lot left in the tank IMO, wouldn't say the guy was exactly a bum that is for sure.

          After Schaeffer said no to K9 and Lara and the WBC to Trout.... I had a feeling it'd be him

            Quintana is a guaranteed victory for Alvarez,obviously.Just another listless,used up fighter for ginger to beat up on.


            Alvarez simply doesn't have the heart to compete at the top.He's simply not championship material.

              Quintana isn't a bum, but he's past-prime. Why can't Canelo fight a prime fighter? I remember thinking that it would be a good fight last month, but he shouldn't be getting a shot when there are better opponents available.

              Quintana isn't a test, he's more like a pop-quiz.

                Quintana hasn't been the same since Cotto blazed him in 06

                  Who the **** is Carnelo? And how is Quintana a bum NOW? He's won all of his fights above 147 and only lost to good quality opponents.

                  Why are Boxing fans so ******? Everyone calling a fighter who isn't in the top 10 of their division a bum and using triangle theories to determine outcomes on possible fights. I'm not saying I'm the smartest one on this site when it comes to Boxing knowledge I know I'm not but man there are way more idiots on here than there are knowledgeable people.

                    Quintana is a Dibella fighter though. Would Dibella want give GB an opponent that would go head to head with Chavez/Martinez? I guess if Canelo is going to fight somebody regardless, it might as well be his own guy. And since it's only Quintana, who nobody cares about, it won't effect the PPV buys that much.
