    How does this man earn a title shot first he jumps out of the ring against Williams then he lost nearly every round to Carlos Molina and then wins a close decision over a fringe contender in Antwone Smith imo this is not right and he dosent deserve a title shot.

    because titles mean nothing anymore....
    the guy that fought guillermo jones for the wba cruiser title never had 1 fight at that weight....brian magee really beat no one to get a shot at butes belt...he gets knocked out and his next fight is for the WBA version... manfredo had a winning streak, but no one ranked under 75 in the world i could go on...

    Internet forums I swear... not 2 months ago people were whining about Canelo's level of opposition, and now when he faces his career-best opponent... it is a disgrace? Have at least a little consistency with your criticism...

    Cintron pretty much won every round vs. Williams before the incident, close ones, but he landed the crispier shots in at least 3 rounds... the loss to Molina is a knock on his record surely, but Lara almost got one too (escaped with a draw), Molina, who should have a win over Chavez Jr., was coming in with his career-best run.

    Cintron, a little faded, is still a solid and formidable top10 contender who'll likely take Canelo more seriously, his straight power punches could give the young ginger a LOT of troubles if he shows up with the Brother Cotto flaws... and if the people still riding the Cotto fight have any consistency... they better view this as a legit threat because Cintron is levels above bro Cotto...

    lol, margo gets caught cheating, KOed, wins a shitty UD vs shitty comp...then somehow gets a title shot for a vacant title in a weight class he has never done anything in vs. a high profile guy....that's just the way these lame titles work

    Canelo is being spoon fed. hes only 20 yes but hes holding a world title.

    Canelo is being built into the next mexicano super star so a loss to the likes of Molina, Lara, Cotto, Margarito, Kirkland, Angulo would be bad

    Its a step up in terms on Names but Canelo needs to fight the true contenders for the right to be called a world champion

    Listen John Murray gets dominated and knocked out against Kevin Mitchell in 8 rds, the very next fight he gets a world title fight against Brandon Rios.

    Alvarez just fights low level opponents, he should really fight someone at world level soon

    so...and now he gets another title shot? so now we have him cheating, getting KOed, beating a C level guy poorly, then gets a title shot in a div he has done nothing but lost in vs a high profile name...loses, and gets his very next fight is another title shot in the same div...its ******ed...they may as well just scrap titles altogether
