Who should Canelo fight next?

multi option poll?

lara is the best option clearly

 

JMW rankings:
1. Mayweather
2. Alvarez
3. Lara

...naturally, the answer here is Lara.

 

Cotto. Regardless of whether he beats Martinez or not.

Nobody gives a **** about Lara, he can't sell out his own living room.

Boxing is a business. Remember that folks.

 

Charlo says Canelo's gonna fight Molina... why isn't Molina a poll option?

 

...and why are Kirkland and Golovkin options when it's known that they fight on HBO?

 

Kirkland will likely be Canelo's next opponent IMO...he hits hard but he is a very beatable guy for Canelo.

 

Not just Kirkland and Golovkin, Cotto too. Half the poll is invalid.

 

I didn't mention it because Cotto might still have 'free agent' status, and might be able to transfer over to Showtime after the Martinez fight. But yeah.

 

Would love to see Canelo square up to Golovkin but it would make sense for Alvarez to box Lara for an important rankings win, or against Kirkland to please the fans.

 

Even so, Cotto-Martinez fight June, Alvarez's next fight is July.

That said, Charlo would be a death sentence for a ppv, Lara might do ok depending how he looks with Ishe Smith (I nearly fell asleep writing that...)

 

I wouldnt mind if he fights Molina next if he stays at JMW should be a fairly easy win vs the next highest rated title holder, will be a more entertaining fights than a guy like Lara and if I recall Molina arguably already beat Lara head to head(fight was a draw) has the real title (IBF) compared to Lara's interim WBA belt. if he moves to MW maybe a bout with Quillin or a tune up vs a Rosado type to test the weight.

 

The Kirkland fight is a no go.

 

I think Kirkland would be the best competitive fight for Canelo at this stage.

Lara provides too much of a technical challenge for Canelo but I would like to see them fight 2-3 fights later, after Kirkland.

I don't think GGG would be very competitive, and have Canelo winning by UD or stoppage.
