Was Canelo-Lopez almost as bad as Garcia-Salka?

Not even remotely close. Lopez had upset Ortiz at 147, Ortiz was going to fight Canelo. Lopez took Ortiz's place and it was the only thing Canelo had left because of what happened to Paul Williams and because James Kirkland rejected the offer and had to get surgery. Trout was scheduled to fight Cotto, Lara was scheduled to fight Vanes. Neither Cotto or Mayweather felt a Canelo fight was good at the moment. So there you have it.

He'd do better than Canelos sorry ass.

I might be wrong, but didn't Jose Cotto come up from 135 to 154 to fight him?

Damn! shots fired.

It was a mismatch but Lopez was an established name coming off a good win. Also Canelo was not a unified champ and was still in his early early 20s, still in his development process.

That fight was at 150 and Canelo was only 19 years old.
