I'll buy Cintron, only because Cintron is a bum and if you lose to him there MUST be a reason. But Kirkland? Nah, I think Kirkland nailed Angulo with a great body shot near the end of the round which drained the life out and him, then he was dropped hard. From then on he was hurt, and Kirkland never allowed him time to recover. He kept the heat on him the whole time, and Angulo never recovered from the first round.
Kirkland came out of prison and was fucking all types of hookers and stripppers before he fought Ishida. is that an excuse or the truth?
Yeah, but you can't really train a chin. Kirkland also got a pretty egregious stoppage against Molina, in a fight where he was way behind on the cards. As much shit as Canelo gets, he's clearly a cut above. Be interesting to see if Kirkland can test that chin, though
TIMING is Everything & the Timing of this Bout Couldn't Be Better for Canelo Alvarez... The Mainstream Boxing Public's Temporarily DISENCHANTED w/the Sport, After Floyd's $100+ Million "Effort" vs. Pacquiao...But Have No Fear, In Swoops Boxing's Newest Mexican Heaththrob, Canelo Alvarez, to SAVE the Day!!!...Against a Fan Friendly, Aggressive Opponent, SANS the Trainer that Gets the Absolute BEST Out of Him... Fun Fight for 3-4 Rounds, but REED would Be Shocked if Kirkland Made it Past Round 5... When it's All Said & Done, Canelo Will BOOST his Status @ the Expense of Floyd-Pac & You'd Best Believe HBO Commentators will ASSIST in Beating that Drum...Showing the Floyd-Pac Replay on the SAME Broadcast as Canelo-Kirkland will HELP Alvarez's Cause Even Fuuuuuuurther.... REED:fightme:
Kirkland looks shredded at the weigh in. Should be fun while it lasts. Kirkland is always exciting. Still, Canelo KO 1.
alvarez by decision, and a rough fight for him. he's vulnerable late, but kirkland has never stopped anyone late in a fight. hopefully kirkland can survive early then beat the fuck outta him in the middle rounds i dunno how much it will help alvarez. maybe among those who missed the fight he had with mayweather jr where he looked equally as incompetent as pacquiao.
I think I will lay some green on this for Canelo by Decision. I mean he couldn't stop Ryan Rhodes and Matthew Hatton. The Rhodes fight was stopped but........:wack:
Kirkland damn sure won the STAREDOWN, if nothing else. He looks intense as Hell. Like he's willing to die trying tomorrow. Please God, let him rid us of overrated Crapnelo.
^^^ That's all his going to win.....I was watching Kirkland last two fight vs. Tapia n Molina.....NO WAY NO WAY! that guy beat Canelo..he get hit too easily! And he hasn't fought in over a YEAR....no way.....he has NO chance.
Didn't know this fight had a 24/7...HBO is reaching...REACHINGGGG........these are great though.... <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JCBoSjpe2fk?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
There's NO Pretense w/James Kirkland; What You SEE is what You GET... He's the Type that would RATHER Die in Pursuit of Whatever he Deems Meaningful (In OR Out of the Ring), than Merely Coexist w/Out Ever Trying...A TRUE Warrior...There's an Innate HONESTY, a Level of SIMPLICITY to Kirkland, that REED's Always Had the Utmost Respect For...And he BUSTS his Ass in Training Camp, To that End... SPARS Just as he Fights, for Better or Worse...Kirkland's NOTORIOUS for Requiring 2wice as Many Guys as Most Fighters on his Level Do, Based on How HARD he Spars...& it's NOT Some Macho, Asshole Type of Shit Either.... Ann Wolfe's EXACTLY the Same, Which is what Made their Bond Unique...Nobody GETS Kirkland like Ann Wolfe Does, Which is Why Nobody Will Ever Get the BEST Out of Him, as She Did... REED:hammert:
Wouldn't be surprised if canelo starts pussy in out after three when Kirkland is still there and starts "boxing" bitch style. But after last week, I'm pretty cynical.
Yeah, he damn sure looks to be in great physical shape. But as we know, you can't put muscles on your chin. I'm predicting that IF Kirkland can withstand Ginger's best for 5 rounds, that he'll make Ginger fold. Reason for that being I just feel that Kirkland is willing to push himself to a place that Ginger isn't willing to. Canelo SCREAMS of a front runner. But surviving the first 5 is gonna be very problematic for Kirk.
Yep, that's him... REED Knows Rick Morones Too...Cool Ass Dude, but NEVER Trained a Fighter on THIS Level...Honestly, it Looks to REED like Kirkland Kicked Wolfe to the Curb Over Money, so he Brought In 2 Unheralded Guys in her Place... Between Rounds of a TOUGH Fight is When Kirkland Could Regret the Decision he Made...Or, Morones and Tucker will Be Validated on the World Class TRAINING Radar, Overnight... REED:kidcool:
