Comments Thread For: Canelo Agrees To Terms To Face Kirkland On HBO

If only the Mayweather vs PAC negotiations could be done in 4 days.

Replace Pac with Cotto and you got it :blow:

Please explain how I'm contradicting? It's not Canelo's second fight in three years and his inactivity doesn't compare to Kirkland's. What am I missing?

Reread it. I never said you contradicted yourself on purpose .

I never said it's comparable, all I said was Canelo has been off for enough time to have ring rust. It's not like he's been extremely active and coming off an "injury" plus his past stamina problems could very well be key factors in evening out the playing field for James come fight night.

HBO and the la Oya the only loosers with this fight! they lost millions of dollars for not signing a fight with Cotto and now they have a free fight :blow:

At the very least Kirkland, have the sense to go back to Ann Wolfe. She's your best - only - chance at winning this.

Another done deal for Canelo Alvarez! Second one in two months! Wow!

I thought Alvarez was a PPV attraction! Funny how things change really quickly in boxing.

I see Canelo winning this fight especially if he comes out and jumps on Kirkland from the opening bell. If Kirkland makes it out of the 2nd round, Canelo may be in for the fight of his life. If Anne Wolfe is Kirkland's trainer for this fight, definitely Canelo will be in for the fight of his life if it goes past 2 rounds. Anne will not let Kirkland quit. Expect Kirkland to stay in Canelo's chest and try to make this a brawl. If Canelo can control the distance, he could make this an easy fight but I don't see Canelo being able to move his feet fast enough or long enough to do so. I'm still picking Canelo to win.

yeah your boy is scared of Canelo, he knows he doesn't have a chance against him

This is a great fight, will be entertaining.

Always wondered what would happen, Kirkland might be coming off a layoff, but with Anne Wolf's training camps, i thinks it's a good thing that he didn't fight too ofter. Wolf makes her fighters go all out, theres a possibility he can shake the rust off during training camp.
