Comments Thread For: Canelo Embraces War, Brutally Knocks Kirkland Out

[bigjavi973]

Canelo gives the fans a great show and now its on to the next one. If Cotto wants it he can get his ass whipping later this year. I doubt he steps up to the challenge.
GGG/Canelo would be a great fight, would like to see ginger have at least one fight at 160 firts though, preferably against Cotto.

Miguel Cotto reps are here for #CaneloKirkland to check things out. They have signed term sheet for Cotto-Canelo this fall if both win.

żDid anyone expect something else? People talk about Khan having a glass jaw, well Kirkland's jaw is worse, he has a "gelatin" jaw..It was a entertaining fight while it lasted cause Kirkland is a straight foward fighter that comes out swining, but once he gets tagged on that jaw it's over..

Was there anyone who didn't see this coming or actually thought Kirkland would win?

Not me... But there were.............................................. ...

Did anybody watch expect Kirkland to win? Dude has the weakest chin in his division and canelo isn't feather fisted.

Wow. What a savage, starmaking performance. I was so wrong about this fight lol. Respect to Canelo.

Cool now rematch Lara so he can embarass you again

Lara embarrassed himself as much as he did in Canelo in that fight.

Both men needed more activity if they wanted a clearer decision victory.

I picked Canelo to win last night but he did way better than I expected, he truly looked great last night. I'm so excited to see him vs Cotto and GGG in the future. I'd still pick GGG to beat him but I'm starting to lean towards Canelo beating Cotto and that was always a 50/50 fight IMO that I went back and forth on in my mind.

Canelo beat a bum who was out 2years

Canelo KO'd a terrible fighter in the Kirk who sat out 2 years. Kirk was hand picked by Canelo because Kirk is an easy fight-comes straight forward with a huge head(Think Mount Rushmore) and no defense and quite slow.

Canolli Alvarez sucks balls. His reign would t last long. Hope Cotton cripples him. And we all kno he will never face a pure boxer again cause Unkie Oscar can only save him so much.

Kirklands jaw is worse than Khan?
Did you not see the vicious punches he was taking yet he still was coming forward, still throwing punches?
I don't think a man with a weak chin last that long. Kirkland was a warrior who was beaten by a better fighter. That is it.

Don't take away credit from Canelo by making ridiculous statements of Kirkland having a glass chin when we just saw the punches he took.
