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

Kirkland did not look strong at the weigh in. That was all Kirkland had going for him, raw power and a will to throw and throw and throw. But at the weigh in he looked like a man that spent his whole camp shedding weight. Like a stiff breeze would blow him over. I expect him to be gassed before round 2. He might show bursts of energy here and there but this will be one sided.

I'm looking forward to the Canelo fight, it'll be interesting to see where he goes after this fight, he is taking a long time in rebuilding his career after the Mayweather fight.
I did rate him before the fight with Floyd and he looked like he genuinely wanted to start stepping it up a gear, it's funny how he was being bullshited up to be the next best thing but that loss looks like it really fucked him up
I think Canelo catches too much heat. I don't particularly like him myself but he didn't have to face Trout, he didn't have to face Lara. Most people didn't go looking to fight these guys so I give Canelo respect for doing that. He was dismantled by Floyd but the kid is young, taking a few easier fights again isn't a crime. In the next year he needs to fight Andrade or move up though.

That was what I was saying, his career has been easy fights up until that point, I think he felt as though he was finally ready to start stepping it up a gear and push on with the tougher fights, then Floyd came along and put a stop to that plan and he's had to go back to the drawing board
Hard to see anything other than a Canelo TKO inside 4 rounds.
That said, WAR KIRKLAND!

Man that was painful!! BOTH networks reairing fight and even those awkward stammered set of Kellerman interviews. This is going to fester like some infected cracked tooth
two words boxing world..MOVE ON! Canelo and Kirkland must be punching holes in the wall waiting this out

That was impressive. Beautiful punch selection by Alvarez.
