    Canelo by knockout.

    Canelo does well against come-forward fighters, and Kirkland has a weak chin.

    Kirkland comes out like a bolt of lighting so no way will this go 12.
    I expect we will see Canelo take some hard punches in this fight :!:

    I see Kirkland running out of steam and Canelo just gets better and better with each fight.

    Is Kirkland back with Wolfe:think

    Canelo TKO before 7:good

    I don't know...

    Wolfe and Kirkland were back together as of Kirkland vs. Tapia, but that was over a year ago.

    The Mandingoe Warrior is going to beat Caneloe like the red headed stepchild that he is.

    The win against Tapia actually looks pretty good in hindsite as Tapia nw looks to be a pretty solid fighter

    :good

    Kind of like Stevens' over Tureano Johnson.

    Not many knew of Johnson or Tapia beforehand, and some were hesitant to chalk their strong efforts up to anything but Stevens' and Kirkland's already well documented flaws, but they have borne out and both aged well.

    Kirkland better not back out for a third time. Guy has only fought 3 times in 4 years and wants 2 million bucks, what mayweather pays his opponents.

    That guy has some loose screws in his head.

    Anyways this is a good fight. Medium Risk Low Reward


    Kirkland is also heavy duty like Canelo, beck I think he is bigger
    He has fought in middleweight also.

    Oh damn, what a mouth watering doubleheader that would make:

    Stevens vs. Kirkland with Johnson vs. Tapia as co-main (winner earning a date - 50% chance of it being a rematch - with the main event winner)

    Na canelo is Going to 'ishida' him. The mango warrior has one of the worse glass jaws inside boxing, close to being number one p4p

    Rumor has it that Kirkland left her again but that has yet to be confirmed.

    I think Kirkland is a only a few steps behind Taylor with his life outside the ring:blood I do not wish that upon him but he has some deeply rooted issues :yep:-(

    :patsch:roll:

    He will land some hard shots but Canelo has become a more polished boxer with every fight. No way he gets blasted by Kirkland:-(

    You are talking so far out of your ass :lol: Are you guys real people? I swear you guys crack me up. Its really hard to believe a lot of you guys here are real people that live your own independent lives as adults with the minds you guys have. You have lived for over 19 years (Im assuming) and this is what you have to show for it, is that you've deduced that a fighter who has some of the most grueling training camps in the sport, a fighter who's bread and butter is taking other good fighters into deep waters and drowning them in war, outwilling and outfighting them, is a mentally weak fighter. And that getting knocked down, has to do with being mentally weak.
