For Alvarez vs Lopez, boxing back on CBS.... humm (link)

[New England]

"That's right folks! Prepare for the return of boxing to network TV as a junior middleweight defends his title against a junior welterweight!"

At least we know Lopez will be an exciting opponent.

an exciting opponent who will lose magnificently. he's every bit a no hoper.

CBS is free TV. you can watch that stuff with basic cable.

he's going to whoop the dogsh#t out of him and it will entertain the casual fans and serve as an introduction. some of the casual fans will literally watch the fights to see somebody get beat up and for no other reason. gross, but that's the truth. "i just want to see somebody get knocked out," is i believe the moniker.

the real issue is obviously the size. his punches wont do a damn thing to canelo, and he wont be able to take canelo's gas. he'll go out there and fight his ass off and fail miserably.


it will take a while, too. canelo is not a seek and destroy guy. he takes his time to see what his opponents punches look like before he opens up

six to nine round knockout. huge beatdown. at least jose is gonna get paid.

i've always like lopez. he's representative of all the things you want to see in the constitution of a fighter. he's worked hard for a long time for short cash.

This is awesome news for the sport of boxing!

Though I don't like the fact that Canello is fighting a small guy, but the fight being on CBS is a pure win for boxing.

Reel in the casuals by having a guy get brutally beat down and probably spectacularly KO'd, not a bad business plan.

Too bad the real boxing fans know this fight is dog crap. Oh well, I will tune in anyway, can't beat free entertainment.
