    Bigger name (but he's got nothing to show for lately), on the other hand, Kirkland fought a FOTY against Angulo (and a good fight with Molina despite he was trailing), how can Williams outsell that? Against Williams there won't be fireworks until he [Canelo] finds it, against Kirkland you only have to wait the for the first bell.

    Now with the Paul Williams accident, is time to bump the thread again.

    I really hope he fights Kirkland. I feel he will fight the winner of Spinks/K9 next to unify the belts.

    Lara of course (and yes I know Kirkland has already been picked). The guy who is most deserving of the fight is Lara. Yet they were going to go for the guy who Lara whooped, Williams, and now that he's out they're going for a guy Molina was whooping, Kirkland. Canelo's a champion, he needs to fight the best, but I get it, why fight Lara or Molina for more risk and less reward, surely they'll try to fight Cotto in the first half of 2013 and they're waiting for that, Kirkland doesn't pose much of a risk imo, he's just not that great of a fighter.

    I think this comes down to the question of "What do you want the outcome to be?" Do you want to see him get beat? Do you want to see him look dominant and skillful? Do you want to see him in a slugfest? Do you want to see him in a close technical fight? Do you want to see him challenged, but not enough to risk him losing? Do you want to see him get out-boxed? Do you want to see him get knocked out? What do you want to see? I think there is a fighter for every situation and depending on your interests, that is how you'll decide which fighter should be next for him.

    I feel Rosado deserves this opportunity, especially at this stage of his career. He keeps on improving and seems to be real hungry and dedicated. This fight will bring a lot of excitement to the fans and will be sold easily to the public by September. I know other fighters have bigger names and accomplishments than Rosaso in certain aspects of their career. But we also have to understand it's a business and a fighter like Lara doesn't have a stong following at this point and Molina will make any fight ugly which wouldn't help Canelo's image at all. A Cotto fight will be nice towards the end of the year and needs more time to make it a larger event. Kirkland has price himself out. Im just hoping someone like Freitas doesnt get the call to face Canelo next:-(
