It might be Canelo - Kirkland

CANELO ALVAREZ VS. JAMES KIRKLAND IN SAN ANTONIO ON MAY 2?|| FIGHTHYPE.COM

Although it's not Cotto, I'd be more than happy to see this fight.

I didn't like this fight when it was proposed a year ago and I still think it's a mismatch. I think Kirkland is a rumor.

I'm sure it will be exciting while it lasts though.

What happened to Clottey?

Something about Alvarez just yells 'stagnated'

[walrus]

I like Kirkland but I don't think he would fare well against Alvarez. That is all

[La Cucaracha]

Should be exciting for as long as it goes Alvarez takes Kirkland out

[powerpuncher]

seems like a consolation fight which is alright. at least its an exciting consolation fight. im not necessarily a huge canelo fan, but he doesnt duck fighters so im sure that he did everything that he was able to to make the cotto fight.

Common sense says Kirkland gets stopped early, but Canelo will need to weather an onslaught first.

Sometimes those onslaughts work, even against the best.

Hurricane Carter vs. Emile Griffith springs to mind as does Mayorga vs. Forrest I.
