you know im surprised there are no kirkland black excellence type threads in the ring besides this fight thread....i wonder why? :mjpls:
Boxing only airs on PPV right? Who is this Kirkland gentleman? Is he associated with the Costco brand?

You don't think Canelo is the real deal?

nah canelo is a tough kid with fast hands for his size and can put together combos with power...but ive been harping on canelo forever about his stamina...this dude is what 24-25 years old...he should not have stamina issues....still suspect as hell and this is something that an inshape kirkland can REALLY exploit...hell this is a reason why GGG would give him problems...and lets not talk about his footwork....he's flatfooted and slow.....that fight with Lara was Lara's fight to take but he took 1 shot to the body and skipped to my lou around the ring too much which also made canelo look bad because he couldn't cut the ring off on him...granted i expect this to not be a factor at first but if kirkland is still standing in the middle rounds canelo will have to rely on that footwork else hes going to get bashed up and sent to a trauma center like tapia did

I'm picking Canelo, but I'm rooting for #KirklandKutthroats to win.

I think the sport is due for an upset and a new marquee name to be thrown around in these possible upcoming match ups.
Canelo too big of a star to lose a decision against Killa Kirk. James gonna have to KO him or TKO him (tko i see more likely)

If James makes it out of those early rounds unscathed or barely scathed Cinnamon better have prepared for the fight of his life. BC as we all saw with Pero and Tapia once james gets going you're not gonna stop him the ninjas gonna throw 100 punches. Canelo's stamina shouldn't be an issue you'd think,

myself im rooting for James to beat down Canelo..mostly for the fact I think Canelo is a little overrated...unfortunately James not fighting since Dec 2013 makes it hard for me to pick him to win but I hope he does
so canelo takes the first two rounds of this alone?

Kirkland hasn't fought since 2013 I believe and that will play a factor in it cause I know his conditioning will probably not be top notch. I think Canelo beats him in a decision or knocks him out late in the fight. If Kirkland was active I would pick him but since he hasn't been i'll go with Alvarez.

how did pretty boy loma do?


i was off the lean and fukked around and missed the undercards,but my stream was soild during the main event :ohlawd:

He was amazing breh, the biggest ccompliment I feel I can give a fighter is wishing I could fight like they do if I were to be a fighter, Ive only felt that way with BHop, Jersey Joe and Ward but after every Loma fight I feel like he enters that category for me more and more

Edit skillwise I know achievement wise its ddisrespectful to even mention him with the aboved.

That's not the point Ice...James Kirkland should get black excellence support threads as well..There should be threads about the various things both of his personal and professional life. Yet I don't see any :mjpls:

Nah its only black excellence when its time to dikkride Floyd. I like Canelo in this fight you're right about him being a bit overrated but it every fighter in the game had Canelo attitude we would be in another golden era. There will never he no 5 year wait on his part for ANY fight he would have fought Manny and Floyd 10x by now if he was in that situation. Aside from Ward the only dude willing to give GGG that work is a guy a division below him, you have to respect that.

You get it though, that's why I fukk with Canelo, in every boxing interview all you hear now a days "when the time is right......when the money is right......my promote....ask Al haymon.....what does he bring to the table etc"

Meanwhile Canelo like

Lara was talking crazy that Canelo was ducking him during the Angulo fight and what fight did he gave him that fight immediately after Angulo against Oscar's wishes. You can't hate on that man, that Mexicac just wants to fight the best.

canelo has an edge about him that the better fighters have, i just hope he can dust off the loss and still come correct. But that loss will haunt him cause i doubt he gets a rematch against floyd

but even still its a loss to floyd :skip: who hasnt lost to floyd :wow:

and fukk Lara man, last i saw him lose a match to paul williams that he should have won simply because he phoned it in in the later rounds, I still think he could have turned up the heat on him

that being said he was robbed in that fight
