Comments Thread For: Saul Alvarez May Possibly Close Out 2012 on 12/8

[Realism]

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....

When all else fails, blame Golden Boy or Top Rank.

Don't forget TMT....

Good...I think he's only two fights away from being ready to hang with Cotto even with having the original plan break down. Definitely a mismatch with this Lopez fight, a placeholder fight that he should win... the next fight has to be a dark horse contender or another champion at the weight.....then a big fight if he gets thru that

What? Only two fights away from being ready for Cotto? Which of his opposition got him ready for Cotto? Was it his brother or Hatton's brother?

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

And he will fail miserably while doing so. And no he won't beat Cotto, unless Cotto seriously declined from the Mayweather fight to December.

None of those. What has he done to earn a shot at those two guys? What did he do to earn that WBC belt? At least Ortiz was in some wars and good fights. And Cotto, well, he's Cotto. He can call out whoever he wants but the fact is he hasn't done **** to earn that belt nor he's defending it like a champion and he hasn't done **** to earn a shot at Floyd or Cotto.

Cotto will Kill this Kid ..no macht for Cotto or Maywather

Anyone of Cotto, Kirkland, or the winner of Lara-Martirosyan (Hoping that fight takes place soon) would be fine with me. I doubt it will be Cotto, since he's booked for Dec 1 @ MSG (Would Canelo come to fight Miguel in front of the pro-Cotto crowd?).

Cameron Dunkin said Kirkland's next fight would be for title, so hopefully he's gets the opportunity.

Nobody hate on Canelo....for telling the truth... he is what it is and old man killer

I'm telling you right now, there is absolutely no way that they're putting ginger anywhere near a healthy Kirkland.

So why can Clottey, Margarito and Mosley earn huge pay days who weren't even Champions, title holders, ranked P4P, or even ranked top 5 in their on weight division?

Let alone actually winning fights.....

Ready to hang with him, yes...but I'm assuming he takes on a really tough fight in December, like a real fight most can approve of... so if it's another mismatch then I will take back the statement. It has to be an avoided contender or champion at the weight, otherwise Cotto will be way too much. He might be way too much as it is, but I think he will be able to hang in there if that's how they plan it

Cotto has his own plans though so who knows how far off that fight is.

Why are you acting like he defends Pacman though??
