    Kirkland fights Canelo & Cotto (though i think the Cotto fight has just been postponed but the intention is there) both of whom have been or are the 'lineal' 'MW' (LOL) champion in the past two years!

    Do you have to get Kayoed by Ishida to get these men to fight you at 160 or what? Apart from being **** & not being a holder of any 160lb title exactly what has Kirkland got that GGG hasn't?

    Kirkland was/Is a tune up fight for both
    Canelo fought him coming off a layoff before Cotto, and Cotto is fighting him as a tune up after being out a year and a half both fights are JMW fights don't see the point of this question.

    It was strictly due to the 3 kd rule, he didn't truly stop him. Hell, kirk was only stunned once and mostly off balance for 2 of the kd's. Kirk was way too overly aggressive and was flash knocked down way too easily
