I didn't have any particular person in mind, so I'm not sure what you were expecting.
I know what your going to say, boxing is hit and not be - maybe so, but everyone has strengths and weaknesses, and y'all Canelo haters fail to give him credit for anything.
We already knew Lara was a mover, why couldn't he trade with Canelo? Same reason why Canelo couldn't run and shoot with Lara. That's just an example of my both boxers lose in a style match up like that.

Oh i agree, those judges should be shot. Shyt like that gives the sport a black eye.

Canelo's depressing because he has learned nothing from his fights. I don't know whether to blame him or his team, but they have terrible game plans. He doesn't cut off the ring and apply enough pressure on boxer-movers. He'd rather stand there and pose, set his feet, then throw wildly over-committed punches.
He was lucky that:
1) Trout had no power and poorer defense.
2) Lara had better defense, moderate power, but no output.
3) Mayweather.... what am I talking about, he was taken to school.
I really don't care if he's hype or not, but am more impressed if he shows improvement. He hasn't. That's why I'll remain a critic.

What has Kirkland done to earn his shot besides sit on his ass, criticize his trainer and ***** about boxing politics?
If you want these action fighters to get big opportunities then they need to earn it just like everybody else does.

We didn't want him to fight Trout and Lara because of their styles. It was because they were the clear threats at JMW.
If Andrade earns a chance, then people will want that fight. Not because he boxes, but because he's the clear threat at JMW to Canelo.
