March 8th, this saturday night. canelos record: http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?cat=boxer&human_id=348759 angulos record: http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=288697&cat=boxer wide decision: 9 rounds to 3 + discuss, angulo is 5 to 1 underdog
Angulo knows even if he earned a close or wide decision, chances are, neither would officially favor him. He knows or should be advised he needs a KO or Tko against Canelo or anyone he faces from now on as a matter of fact.
I like Angulo, but this will be Canelo by wide decision, if he doesn't stop Angulo late from an accumulation of punishment. This fight was designed to, and will, make Canelo look good.
I'm taking Angulo in this fight. Canelo has never fought this type of fighter before and he's never fought anyone this tough. Unless Angulo had bad preparation like he did in the Kirkland fight, I expect him to knock out Alvarez in the middle rounds. Lara had a lot of trouble because of Angulo's pressure. I expect this pressure to give Alvarez hell for the majority of the fight. Fighting guys like Matthew Hatton, Ryan Rhodes and Josesito Lopez don't help you prepare for a guy like Angulo.
