    Default Canleo could fight on HBO; Clottey, Andrade or Kirkland being mentioned

    De La Hoya Open To HBO Televising Next Canelo Fight - Boxing News

    I would prefer the Kirkland showdown, not too keen on the Clottey showdown but he is the frontrunner: Team Canelo Confirm Clottey is The Frontrunner - Boxing News

    HBO have also said they will work with Goldenboy again.

    Kirkland would be a blockbuster. Big BIG!

    If it's on regular HBO, any of those 3 would be legit. I actually think Clottey might have the best chance, but he'd more than likely just make it frustrating. Still, I think that's the best Andrare could hope to do as well, at least we know Clottey is going to hang tough. If I were Canelo I'd definitely hope for Kirkland, don't see how he would struggle much there.

    Kirkland no dobut would be the most entertaining out of the three. He would bring it from round one, that would be a great fight. Shame Kirkland hasn't fought once this year, does anybody know why?

    Maybe he's only had offers to fight guys who are good? :P I don't rate Kirkland highly, but he'd obviously bring the excitement and let Canelo fight his fight, that seems like it should be the frontrunner to me as well. Why would they want Clottey, after the Lara fight especially? Thats the kind of guy he should be bringing into camp for sparring, all risk no reward for just about anyone at this point.

    Clottey is a punching bag at this point. He is made for Canelo. Kirkland would bring the pain and be exciting to watch, but once again Kirkland is limited and made to order for Canelo. Andrade is interesting, but I think he is too green at this point. So in summary: Clottey is the guy I would least like to see fight Canelo as he would get pounded on for 12 rounds while in his "shell" defense and I would be robbed of a spectacular knockout. Andrade would be an interesting fight and has the best chance to pull off the upset, but may be too green to capitalize on the opportunity so he is my 2nd choice. Kirkland is made to order for Canelo, but will bring the pain and go out on his shield, making him my top choice of the three.

    As far as pure ratings spectacle Kirkland would be the logical choice, also think he'd be the most vulnerable and get short circuited ko'd early. Makes sense. Clottey I don't just get and can see Andrade 'style' giving him the most problems..and the viewers problems Here's an idea for a guy who was screwed out of a title fight...fight a Jermell Charlo. I give him a better shot of all 3 vs Canelo.

    Oscar seems to be doing the right things to get GB on track again. Maybe Schaefer wasn't the good guy everyone wanted us to believe. You can't trust anything any of them say, a howling pack of habitual liars. imo
    Come to think of it, Arum seems to be coming off as the least offensive, to me anyway.

    That would be a shame having 2 great boxing matches on one night.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
