Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez Likely Landing at MGM Grand in Vegas on May 7

[whoseyourdaddy]

vs none of the 3/4 guys he could b fighting...wbc will do what they did @ '54 & bring some 1 up from a lower weight like Hilton; who was a welterweight, and challenge for the title, & he was not even ranked @ '54... Alvarez will always be protected...Alvarez is a fraud & wbc gives him the diamond belt...what BS...

whaaaa whaaa whaaaa

This isn't about Lara, and if you retrace my response by quoting others in this thread, the context was Canelo vs Monroe Jr, the chap that got TKO'd by GGG, so as someone commented that it was going to be hard fight for Canelo, I said Monroe Jr. isn't near the skill of Lara. I am not going to debate that it's a fact. Seeing how Monroe Jr. was getting clicked by GGG on several knockdowns, I'm betting Monroe Jr. will have the same result again with Canelo. I don't see Monroe Jr. as a threat to Canelo, and mainly referring to points and his defense.

Reason why Monroe jr was getting clicked by 3G was bc jr was getting da ring cut off on him..something Canelo has yet to shown he can do... canelo has yet to prove he can deal with movement...bc he can't cut da ring off. .so Canelo vs Monroe jr is a decent fight. .but most will want Rosado..that way Canelo looks good for his fans..even if Monroe schools Canelo he still won't get da decision. ..i don't see Canelo landing those combination of his on any moving target..plus his power is overrated. . So expect fight vs Rosado ..he gets a TKO bc of Rosado eye issue..and looks great....not vs Monroe jr bc he will look bad and probably get school n get a decision like always..**** da man almost beat Floyd .. either one he wins...but just in one he will look great for his fans.

You meant a Trout (45 pounds) and a Kirkland (55) who had both been off a long time and both had to drop a lot of weight.

Trout vs Cotto <--> Trout won on date 2012-12-01 /////
Trout vs Canelo <--> Trout lost on date 2013-04-20 /////
Time elapsed since those fights 4 months

Kirkland vs Tapia <----> Kirkland won on date 2013-12-07 //////
Kirkland vs Canelo <----> Kirkland lost on date 2015-05-09 ////
Time elapsed since those fights 15 months

Alvarez 172 lbs., Trout 171 lbs.[Showtime Official scales fight night] // Trout last fight against Rodriguez @154 been campaigning at 154 since 2009

Alvarez ???lbs Kirkland ???lbs (No official scales for fight night] // Rumours said Kirkland was a very heavy dude before the fight, but unless you know Kirkland himself and you prove it, everything is specualtion, statin facts.

So your point has been negated 100%

A Cotto who beat Geale, after draining him, and one legged Martinez. A Cotto who walked in 20 pounds less than him. But still made a fight of it.

Geale for sure was drained and Martinez was Illed, those are facts and I won't negate those, still.........
Alvarez ???lbs Cotto ???lbs (No official scales for fight night] // Like I said before everything is speculation, no official weights were made fight night, so if anyone says Canelo was 20 heavier, that's bull****! All speculation no facts.

Oh, but he did fight Lara. But unless Lara KO'd him, Canelo wasn't gonna lose. Look at the scorecards, the kid is getting ****** scores over and over again.
They even had a favorable judge in the Mayweather fight

Sad but True, I won't debate that, I had Lara winning 7-5 rounds.

The best at 154, really. Why doesn't he fight Andrade or Charlo then.

Lol, you said Charlo? U follow boxing? PBC vs GBP.......
Andrade, I'd love that fight but I don't know seems Andrade is having problems with his career and there are dudes who don't like him and are blocking him.That fight is aout of the picture for now.

Why can't Canelo be like everyone else and pick a damn weight class. Dude is a pampered brat.

Agreed, I don't litke that crap CW thing but it is what it is.

Chavez jr with a better team and a little more determination.

Don't even try to say such a thing............Chavez Jr. is a universe apart from Canelo and even tho I don't rate Canelo as elite, Chavez Jr. is a waste of a career.......

Don't worry I already told you, Canelo vs GGG is happening on Sep.I've got close people with their camp.

Cmon man. Again, Monroe Jr. is nothing compared to Lara. We can theorize what Canelo vs Lara 2 would end up in as both would have a new gameplan, so there's no way Monroe Jr. 's skills can compare to Lara. It's day and night. No way Monroe Jr. would school Canelo. It sounds like a false opinion to discredit Canelo and favor Monroe Jr. because he went to do with GGG.

[MrRolltide91]

Why not the new arena?

[Crazylegs77]

Rosado has NO chance. I want to see Monroe because he looked decent against Golovkin.

Totally agree, will be like Kirkland all over again. Bring on weight drained Monroe! The 155 division heating up
