"Canelo" Alvarez vs. Kermit Cintron - chat/fight thread tonight on HBO

[Hulk]

Does anyone else really dislike Alvarez?

Why don't you like Alvarez? He seems like a nice kid to me.

Because he's been over-hyped and publically fellated since he arrived on the scene. He's grown a lot since then and has evolved into a very good fighter, but it still bothers me.

Plus, he seems like an asshole.

He IS a little asshole. He's a cocky arrogant ugly little troll who beats up on bantamweights for christ sakes.

I hope James Kirkland rips his head off and shits down his neck.

Cintron...you screwed us all again ! KEEP YOUR LEFT HAND UP AND STOP LEANING OVER TO YOUR RIGHT SIDE EVERY FUCKING TIME !

Damn it.

P.S. Fuck Broner.

I thought Kermit showed some cojones coming out for the final round, I felt sorry for him, you can't say the guy doesn't have courage. I agree Diane, time for Kermit to pack it in..

So Alvarez wants Floyd? I'd love to see that fight.

He's a super nice guy and showed some heart tonight for sure, and has in the past against Margarito and Angulo.

But, he's also an underachiever and lately has looked like he's lost his desire for boxing. I think he had one foot out the door tonight going into this fight with Alavarez.

I'm one of the few Cintron fans around, but I think the guy needs to pack it in too. I don't think his heart was in it tonight either. As soon as he started to get hit, he seemed incredibly uncomfortable, even for him. When he got dropped for the first time, it looked like part of him wanted to keep going and part of him wanted to quit. He looked like he was freaking out in his corner afterwards too.

Hopefully he's made enough money that he can set up whatever kind of 2nd career he wants.

Sorry guys to go off the beaten path here but who the hell was that corona girl in Alvarez' corner. Damn was she something.

Yeah, that's what I figure too, the desire isn't there, and he was just there picking up a payday, and/or hoping he might get lucky. Thing is, Cintron can't compete with the big dogs, he's just been getting title shots off his name, and been done for a long time.

Whether you like Canelo or not, he's fun to watch, and I can see him being in some great fights down the road.

G'night folks, Cotto vs Margo next Satuday..

If the fight is at 154, I can see him giving Mayweather all kinds of trouble.

Martinez would give Floyd fits too, but you gotta wonder if he is gonna fight these bigger guys.

That's my g/f, we've been dating for about a year now.

If he really wants to be known as one of the best of all time, which I doubt he does, he'll fight (and beat) Pacquiao and then move on to Martinez or Alvarez.

Not bad for an old guy. You must be rich.

She was pretty, but I thought she was pretty damn tall. Long torso too.

I actually thought the one in Cintron's corner was more beautiful.
