From Steve Carp of The Las Vegas Review-Journal :

Just talked to Kirkland's manager Cameron Dunkin. Fight with Canelo for 9/15 not a done deal yet but they're close. Maybe 2nite it gets done

Wednesday at the latest but it sure looks like it will happen. It's a shame it had to happen this way but don't blame Kirkland for accepting

Oh lord. The potentially good thing for James is that Canelo isn't extremely hard to hit. But I don't give Kirkland a large chance in this outing.

I literally clapped like this when I read this thread title.

hope james can pull it off

I'll take Alvarez by KO. Although Kirkland may have the power to do some damage, I don't think he can take Alvarez's.

If he gets past Kirkland, I want him to fight cotto.

JMP · 05-29-2012, 09:09 PM

Great fight. I'm favoring Alvarez.

I'll also add that I would love to see Paul Williams sitting ringside with a big smile on his face receiving a standing ovation from the crowd.

PrinceN · 05-29-2012, 09:10 PM
