Canelo the Mexican with Irish hair, or Spike the Irishman with the Mexican style?

    Typical ESB. A lot of bitching about nothing. I've yet to see a single legit report that indicates the odds of this fight taking place are good.

    As far as we all know the negotiations for the rematch are still in place.

    Good point. Because no one has EVER talked about fights that aren't official on this site. Good post. Sit by the phone, ESPN should be in touch with you any second for your astute observations....

    No need to get salty Numbnuts, its just that some of you sound like whiny little bitches crying about a fight that's not even scheduled to take place.

    I don’t think anyone would begrudge him fighting Spike after the lay off and in any case Spike albeit not out of the top tier but he’s far from being a nobody or a roll over though I do think the same re Canelos countering him.
    Don’t agree about him jumping any queue though as he’s highly ranked and drew with Golovkin.

    I think this will be similar to Kirkland vs Canelo, but will be a bit slower (think Spike will be more cautious than Kirkland) and will last longer.

    Spike gets stopped in about 8 rounds but will have some good moments. Think Canelo has a great chin so will take Spikes punches if necessary.
