Canelo v Josesito?

[Onix]

I just read that news on ESPN and I thought there was another Josesito out there but nope its the same ol jaw breaker.

I really hope he doesn't get severely hurt here. Since it is a PPV fight I'm sure he'll get a nice chunk of cash out of this and for that I'm happy for him but his management...what are you doing matching a jr welter against a jr middleweight after one fight at welter? At least let his body get used to the weight.

The fight is going to be on Showtime not PPV

This is a ridiculous fight. A junior welterweight, really? And it's not even like it's a big name -- he'd be better off fighting any of the decent-to-good but not big-name guys who are actually in his division (Lara, Martirosyan, Quillin, etc.). This is pretty disgraceful.

I read that it even may be on just plain old cbs, which would be awesome that they're showing a boxing fight on just plain regular network tv. However its also a missmatch and might actually turn people off boxing more after they watch it, joesisto is to small but he probably coulddnt resist the money.

No, it's on Showtime. Alvarez-Lopez, Gonzalez-Ponce de Leon fight on Showtime on Sept. 15 | RingTV

Hope Josesito gets loads of money and some how pulls off a Rocky story on this.

If this is true, it is a stupid move. You've got a live fighter, only 27 years old, with a brand new world championship....There is no possible amount that they could offer him that would be enough. Fight Bradly, fight ortiz again, and before that fight somebody easy and make a few bucks.

It is a very stupid move come to think of it can't have just been the money maybe josesito got a big head and actually fancies his chances...

That is real possible. Winning a title makes some guys think they are invincible. Years ago, when lopez was a Lightweight, and 18-0, I wanted to see him fight Antillon, who was 16-0 at the time.

This.

P.S. This match up makes me feel uneasy, like Mickey Ward's match ups early in his career.

If he was at least a slick boxer I wouldn't felt so nervous for him. Seeing how he fought vs Ortiz...oh boy.
