Is kirkland back with wolf, if not he is fucked, but I hope he smashies Canelo, should be a great fight
Kirkland is everything most want in a fighter. Face first, very fierce, packs bricks and vulnerable. He is being patched back together here to make Alvarez look like the powerhouse he should of fought like vs Mayweather. The out of ring chaos, surgery, inactivity and a chin made of Lego logs will add up to Alvarez timing him like a clock and helping him run into a tko in about 6. Cotto v Alvarez would be great but I don't think either one wants any part of Golovkin.
Canelo will beat the powerful, but extremely fragile (at this point) Kirkland. So what else is new?
His embarrassing loss to Floyd will be all but forgotten and he'll be hailed as the second coming once again.
People may even begin to clamor for a rematch with Floyd.

Doesn't mean I won't be rooting for Kirkland, though.![]()
Kirkland's chin is susceptible and he likes to brawl.
He could play right into Ginger Head's hands.
Watching the telecast (why oh why are we being subjected to the WHOLE May-Pac fight again??)....... and my worst fears are materializing. HBO can't WAIT to continue hyping Canelo as the next big thing in boxing. Oh godddddd...... Someone will have to get the HBO crew monogrammed knee pads as they go down on Canelo. The guy hasn't even climbed the ring against Kirkland and he's already being anointed.
I hope Kirkland beats that anointed ass.
Nah, Kirklands lego chin was there being annihilated by a guy with a total of 3 career ko's. Also there being badly wobbled in the 1st round of the fight prior vs TBA. What Kirkland got right..after getting up..with Angulo was his nerve. He got a grip and stopped thinking all it took was a bomb. Angulo has the speed and head movement of a Stop sign in a small hurricane and James could be the boxer. Really though it was prob the smartest fight Kirkland has fought. Against Alvarez Kirkland will be the stop sign in the wind.
I think Geale may beat Cotto maybe even stop him and then what will people say oh let me guess, he was never a middle. Most already know that. He past on an Alvarez fight when he had an optional and got Geale in yet another catch. He's now looking past Geale and asking the Kazak to step aside afterward so he can pursue a fight with Alvarez. Why is that and why does he need the belt? I hope the Kazak says no and demands the fight. I've lost a ton of respect for Cotto since Martinez.
Alvarez has to be able to handle the James Kirklands of the world but he best bring his A-game
It's important that this is firmly established beforehand, because I can already see the Canelo bandwagon powering up again when he beats the carefully chosen and very vulnerable Kirkland. I hope Kirkland pulls off the improbable, but his recent track record would seem to indicate otherwise.
