    Golovkin has basically 3 inches in height on Canelo.

    LOL, dude where are you getting that from? A quick google of them standing face to face has Canelo taller by at least 1 1/2 inches.

    Kirkland should find a way to move down to super lightweight w/o losing any weight. Thats the only way he can still be competitive with his "my defence is my face" style.

    Ah yes, forgot those two. Well it's between this one and Tete-Butler for me.

    What do you guys think about Canelo-Andrade?

    True however Cotto is not as slick as he was once:bart
    Canelo is one of the few guys we have (Ruslan/ The Machine/John Molina Jr) that will not duck for the $buck or biz BS:deal

    People can hate on Canelo but he fights the best and if he can't get the best he will still pick a head on collision like tonight:thumbsup

    Cotto, used to love the guy, has turned into a DIVA as CST pointed out tonight:rofl

    He needs Wolfe
    It is not accidentally that he gets hammered every time he leaves Wolfe:deal

    Alvarez will absolutely crush Cotto.

    He'll outweigh him by over 10lb.
    He'll have the speed advantage.
    He isn't shot to sh!t.
    Margarito doesn't own his soul.
    He isn't injured.

    It will be a massacre. Probably a prolonged one, because Cotto has been known to get on his twinkletoes and bicycle around the ring when he's scared. And we all know Alvarez isn't much of a ring general.

    I look at it as a nice big event enroute to the real showdown vs GGG. That one will be a fight.
