    Alvarez vs Kirkland/Clottey/Andrade?



    Looks like the front runner to face Alvarez is still Kirkland, but they have added Andrade and Clottey to their list of possible opponents. They should be making the announcement the first weeks of September with he fight taking place in December.

    Who's the best opponent in your opinion?

    Andrade is the more dangerous fight of the three for him. If I were his management, Id go with Clottey but its not like Canelo to settle for the easiest touch these days

          Clottey would be a classic cherry pick gone wrong.

            I think he could test him. All three of them are difficult fights and all three would be good.

            When I said easiest... i just think his age/inactivty would make it easier than it would've in the past. Also while Kirkland is easy to hit... he's relentless and has good power.
            Andrade is tall and long as hell

              If Canelo can't blast out Kirkland in the first couple rounds, Kirkland will beat him down.

                  Clottey isn't active enough, isn't a big puncher either and more importantly he isn't a good enough counter puncher as shown throughout his career. Canelo would consistently penetrate through that defensive guard and put a serious hurting. It'd be a cherry pick but it'd never go wrong, Clottey offers nothing.

                    All good fights with Andrade being the toughest due to his height and movement. Kirkland and Clottey easier but could become a nightmare if he doesn't establish dominance early.
