    I mean yeah it was a great display of heart and stamina. We saw that he has power and all of those gifts. Sadly we still saw his glass chin. And I believe that if Angulo had not punched himself out, he would have won. I like Kirkland, and will watch all his fights. A really exciting fighter. But he will get KO'd by Canelo or by Angulo if they give him a rematch.

    It was good right that dropped him, he doesnt have Iron chin, but its not **** as you haters want it to be, well he beat a great puncher tonight. He deserves respect.

    Gee, let me think.

    He was a huge underdog, most thinking he would get KO'd,

    he gets dropped in the first and comes back to grind down angulo and be the first to stop him.

    And you are asking, why are people praising kirkland?

    Damn man boxing fans need to get a grip. Its ok to give fighters prop when they give us good performences. Nobody is saying hes a p4p fighter, we are praising a good fight.

    Glass chin...Nah any one probably gets ktfo by that right hand that landed right on it...he has a solid chin he always has...he took bombs from angulo and kept coming...the fight wit the nobo cat was him not being in shape and just trying to blow thru him ...his punch resistance was **** after two yrs...he put on a great display of intelligent pressure with great power in both hands this fight...I bet u thought he was gonna get ktfo

    Yup he has a glass jaw...He got hit by a good shot, but by no means was that a 'monstrous' shot like the announcers were exaggerating. :roll:
    Very entertaining fight though..Id much rather pay $60+ for this fight than some other fights :yep
