i see what your saying, you more hoping that this kid can shock the world again but i look at how scrawny he is and i dont see him standing a chance. but who knows, anything can happen. if Josesito were Canelos size, hell, if he was a natural Welter i'd favor him. this kid is tough as nails and a beast. but its the size dfference that got me un-interested. its really not the right fight for him at the moment. hes got charisma, talent, and even has Haymon in his corner. theyre rushing him too fast. they should let him enjoy his big win. but if it does take place, i hope your right about this fight.
Don't go betting the house on my "hunch".....I wouldn't even go that far to out my money where my mouth is on this one. But I hope I'm right too.
Attention all 140 and 147 lbers, you officially now have a chance at the Canelo Alvarez Sweepstakes!! Guaranteed exposure and a purse large enough to cover all your medical expenses!! Apply now at GBP.com!!
Really, is this legit? Bundrage, Trout, Molina, Mundine, Barker, Garcia, Quintana, Jonak, Okine, Rose, Jackiewicz, Saldivia all were unavailable. All of whom I would give a better chance of winning(well except Saldivia) than Lopez.
Let's not go overboard.....but the kind of impact an upset like this would have would be massive....and would prove either Josesito is truly a p4p force or Canelo was massively over hyped. Canelo losing wouldn't be a huge set back it the fight is a truly great fight.....a compeitive one. Alvarez vs Lopez, trilogy?:nut. Gettin' way ahead of myself but I really have a feeling this is a sleeper classic in the making....2 prime guys.....both Hyped! One guy (Canelo) is the "big bad champion"....the challenger (Lopez) in a very unlikely situation has the chance of a lifetime to capitalize on a victory where he was brought in to lose....ironically against Ortiz... (140 big bad exchamp). Lopez is once again, brought into lose.....the stakes are higher, the risks are greater but the reward will be life changing for Josesito. Let's go!
Lopez might ruin himself here. He's got no business at 154 now. He's going to be all water weight, like Marquez vs Mayweather. On a side note, I'm thinking back on a little more than a year ago it was understood that Alvarez is much further along than Chavez Jr. That notion is clearly dead now.
