Kirkland brought the drama to Canelo, landing hard combinations and getting Canelo to the ropes. Canelo started firing back and dropped Kirkland with a big right hand.

I would still give Cotto the edge over Canelo. But I want to see that fight bad.

Boxing needed that. I loved that Kirkland came back and everything seemed up in the air. Classic.
