    to Ann Wolfe to train him again. Possibly fighting on Cotto/Canelo undercard and Ann Wolfe considering it. Thoughts?

    It would be the best career decision he could make. I hope she will take him back after all that's happened. I doubt Kirkland can reach the elite level, but he can sure make for some entertaining fights, especially if matched against the right opponent. Plus, there is something magical about the Wolfe-Kirkland hook-up. She just knows how to get into his head and he is dead-set on giving her a good performance.

    China chinned Kirkland will be hitting the deck again as soon as he steps in with another live opponent.

    Kirkland can still be in exciting fights win or lose, but he has to be more active

    This makes no difference unless Ann can imbed a piece of iron in Kirklands chin. Better yet, get Ann to fight in his place.

    Yawn...

    You'd think James Kirkland was some amazing and relevant fighter with how much discussion he generates.

    I think she should turn him down but she will probably agree because she genuinely cares about him. If he wasn't as thick as a ton of bricks he'd have never left her.

    Ann Wolfe & Pops Billingsly took Kirkland off the streets as a punk kid gave him a home & a chance in life because they cared He let them down badly 3 times. If Ann has sense she'll say enough is enough 3 strikes youre out. Sadly he is just a street punk & always will be. He had every chance & blew it
