    Kirkland has been mentioned as a possible candidate for either Cotto or Canelo. If you were him, given the current circumstances; Who would you rather fight?

    Many factors to consider here. Both fighters are popular so your going to make good money. For Kirklands style, who would suit more?

    Kirkland style is a nightmare for Cotto.

    Kirkland is great to watch so dangerous and vulnerable at the same time

    can come out cold and lacks head movement, he can be a sucker for the big right but if the right doesnt put him away early he builds momentum

    It would be great to see Canelo vs a guy who wants to bang with him

    Good advise to Cotto stay away from Kirk a pressure fighter with a solid punch.

    Kirkland's best option is to "opt out" of both fights.

    Otherwise his super-fragile glass jaw is getting shattered again.

    kirkland would overpower cotto and knock cotto out. canelo would be more competitive..both guys blasting away at each other. kirkland has the faster hands, so he would drop canelo and hurt him...it would just be a matter of how good canelo's chin really is, and kirkland would put it to the test.
