    Default Any news on James Kirkland??

    Hes been inactive again for a while now and ive not heard any news of him fighting soon. I know he was rumored to fight Canelo a while back but that didnt happen. I think Kirkland is a good fight and I hope he gets in the ring soon.

    as both Ishida and Molina showed, Kirkland is a fun fighter to watch, but he's not really at the elite level, he's pretty limited and a bit of a shaky chin, but well has power, IMO he'll never make it past contender status, that is if he even remains active enough

    He is entertaining though

    Yes, he has a chin about as tough as wet paper.

    Thanks for that, I wonder what happened with Anne Wolfe? Last time they split it was not good for Kirklands career.

    Kirkland got a gift decision and I reckon Anne wasn't pleased with James' work and vice versa.


    Once again James Kirkland shows the world that EVENTUALLY you've got to have good defense to be successful in boxing.

    With the level of excitment and unpredictability you would think the man should be matched on a top network every month. Unfortunately he is blessed with the strength and mentality of a warrior and cursed with a chin made of dry toast. Forget trainer change etc, he'll only go as far as his chin and the opponet doing the actual checking. Molina should have seen an immediate rematch. You cannot untrain a sketchy beard.

    What you said could be applied to Khan.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
