Another ridiculous PPV fight. It's not that interesting of a fight to begin with. It's more of a decent undercard fight.
I don't even have a grammatically incorrect analogy for this one Arum must be cutting to the marrow by now. Kirkland needs to be watched for his own good. Train wreck.
Kirkland is always dangerous early.Have to favor Cotto, despite him being the much smaller man.He's still a class or two above Kirkland in talent.
PPV? Really? Joke this should be on ESPN.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Who cares.
Canelo beat them both.
Cotto should have fought Brook.
BS fight. Cotto should just retire. In a fight like this I always want the underdog to rise up and teach the taking the piss big name fighter a lesson. Not likely to happen, but I hope Cotto gets stopped in round 1. I won't watch.
The invisible man wanted too much, so cotto took the next best thing... Kirkland...

They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

Damn that's sad. I would actually still ppv a good cotto fight but Kirkland, hell no. You never know who's going to show up at a Kirkland fight. They must have done the numbers and figure they could make money on the fight but this is at best a showtime fight and in reality a nicely dressed network fight but not a match up I would pay for. Cotto should retire, Kirkland as well for that matter he's taken too many shots but I think cotto will win this...smh
He's a big puncher and extremely aggressive. If Ricardo Torres can hurt you early then so can Kirkland.Obviously, Cotto is a heavy favorite and I'd pick him to stop Kirkland, but James is dangerous early.Ermosole Albert was a good fighter with reportedly 500 amateur fights and Kirkland ran over him in a round.Brian Vera went the distance and beat a huge Chavez Jr at middle, but was tortured and stopped by Kirkland. He is powerful and dangerous early.
Apparently cotto is contracted to make 10 million for his last fight on his current contract and they cant make that with a standard hbo fight so it must be ppv :S... Fair enough, cotto is fun to watch, a multi time/weigth world champion and a great fighter... but against kirkland, both of these fellows were beaten by canelo in their last fight :S.......
I'm not the one that's wrong but I'll keep it mature even though you picked the low route. Tell me how Kirkland is good. Tell me about all his title fight victories and when they happened. I'll wait.
Better yet let's not waste anyones time. 16 years a pro in an era with so many titles he has never won one. Tell me how is dangerous. He has never beaten a champion so how is he dangerous to a champion caliber fighter?
James Kirkland is a guy brought in to look the part and lose.
I hope you bring a reply with more substance than your last. Hell, more than when you erroneously suggested Kirkland is dangerous too.
