Love Canelo, and Cotto is what I would be most pumped for.

P.S. Funny how not long ago, most of this forum was bashing Canelo for being spoon fed fighters, now hes the next coming of Hagler. ****** nut hugging fan boys

Why not make Pac, Mayweathers tune up.

All Yall , say he is one dimensional, two can't fight and three is a fake bum that can't hurt nobody.

Then Floyd can fight all them other dudes mang

The Racket Squad: Just Another Brick In The Wall

We saw what happened to the last guy who looked past Lopez and into another date , venue and opponent.
He wound up on the disabled list.
This is boxing, Alvarez is an uncertain commodity and it displeases many fans to hear that his December effort will be an attempt to gain more of a name on Cottos back.
Canelo's progress is moving slower than someone in the witness protection program and yet he earns more than guys fighting the top ranked best who have earned the right to earn well.

Disgusting Golden Boy antics designed to attract the uninitiated fan.

You guys seriously need to calm down on the Canelo hate. You'll soon jump on the bandwagon though very soon....thats for sure.

Of course, it wouldn't suprise me one bit. Well, actually it would because just when I think schit can't get more corrupt, Team Canelo and the WBC surprise me even more.

You know, Team Canelo are just setting that kid up for failure and trying to cash out on a ****** pay day instead of legitly build the kid up and make him work like all the other great champions have done in the history of the sport. Get it the old fashion hard way through starting from the ground up and fighting your way to the top.

It's like studying in college. Cheating on all the quizzes and mid-terms (Lopez, Gomez, Hatton, ect) won't help you pass the Final Exam (Mayweather). Then even if you cheat on the Final Exam, it still won't help you because when you finally get a job, at the end of the day, you have to know what you're doing at work.

GBP is just setting this kid up for failure when it's all said and done. He needs to start getting rounds in with legit opponents. That's the only way to get it. No other way around it. You can only cheat on tests for so long before the teacher catches you. Canelo's going to get sent to the principal's office in due time lol

this kid has 40 fights, I'd say he's ready to step up to the plate

Kirkland's shoulder should be healed and he should've gotten a tune up out the way.

No excuse for that fight not to happen.

yes i hope that fight gets made assuming canelo easily gets through josesito of course..

maybe we will be on the bandwagon, but not until he ears it, praising this guy before he actually goes out and beats a world class opponent is just ******. he has a great following and could be great for the sport, but fighting smaller guys is weak, and then defending it like size doesn't matter is even worst. size does matter, that is why there are weight divisions in the sport. i am not saying canelo wont step up and fight the dangerous fighters, i hope he does, but right now it seems like he just wants easy **** until mayweather. and he is too young for that approach and odds are if he does have a legit chance in winning against floyd he probably wont get the fight.

I will never be a fan of ginger, believe that.

[WESS]

So do we bash Alvarez for wanting to fight top guys?

Or do we bash Alvarez for calling out fighters that are too good for him?

Or will be bash Mayweather and Cotto for being potential opposition for him?

What is it? I know haters are gonna hate... just want to get clear on which direction the hate is going to go....
