Canelo saves boxing!!

[SeekDaGreat]

No this is not the type of war boxing needs. It was really good for Canelo, but his opponent had no chin and I hate watching fights that I know whats about to happen before they do.

Before the fight started I told my dad "I hope Kirkland lasts more than a round
". To his credit he lasted 2 and a half although he probably was done the first time Canelo connected on his china on the 1st or at least thats what it looked to me. One sided executions are not entertaining. Now put Canelo in with GGG on PPV and I would fork over to watch that without a doubt. But put GGG/Canelo in with Kirkland and I wouldn't pay a dime.

Bell saved him in first round. It was getting stopped. So you were more or less right. One round.

did anyone really think he wasn't going to obliterate kirkland?

Floyd Nuthuggers; FLOYD BEAT CANELO DOE, TBE

fact: Floyd would've went 12 rounds pot-shotting vs Kirkland

do ya'll not understand the point of professional sports? it's to entertain the fans

...Or boxing for that matter. People forget that boxing is fighting! You people who are content watching famous people dance around all night should tune into Dancing With the Stars. I tune into boxing to see a fight.

But on a serious note, mismatches like this aren't good for boxing. What was Kirkland's purse?

Fighters like Kirkland are exploited because they get good ratings and are cheap. A networks dream.

He needs to defend himself or he will be eating through a straw and talking like Meldrick Taylor when its all said and done.

[CANELOLUJAH]

You aren't seeing any of that Mayweather money,

Floyd fans crack me up.

they stuck in BET land, lmfao they believe the raps and the lifestyle these fools feed em no wonder you see 38 grown ass black men still on welfare thinking he bout to blow up! lmfao.

Measuring right, straight lefts down the middle repeatedly, Kirkland crumbles around the 4th or 5th round.

If he decides to actually fight like he used to. I dont know what happened, but he refuses to engage now.

Lets see if his brain functions well enough to see that, especially after tonight.
