    The upcoming Canelo-Kirkland fight is a mismatch in my opinion. I think Canelo blasts him out inside 3 rounds. I love Kirkland and the excitement he brings to the sport but he'll walk right into Canelo's power and I'm not expecting much from this fight. I hope I'm wrong.

    The fight we should have got was Cotto-Kirkland. Cotto is a smaller man who could hurt but probably not put Kirkland away. I think these guys would have beat the hell out of each other and made an all-time action fight. Better yet, it would have been for the linear middleweight title.

    Thoughts?

    Canelo-Kirkland is a decent match up. Kirkland is no joke.

    I can see Canelo by first rd tko but if Kirkland builds momentum he can be very dangerous

    I can see Canelo by first rd technical knockout however in the event that Kirkland fabricates energy he can be extremely dangerous,Canelo-Kirkland is an OK match up. Kirkland is no joke.
