    People hate on canelo for doing this **** as a 4th option yet mayweather and donaire get a pass for Marquez and narvaez as a first option who unlike josesito they didn't even prove themselves in the middle division like jlo did. They just jumped 2 complete divisions at least jlo moved up one then another.

    Not only that canelo manhandled his 4th opponents like a beast may and donaire got boring uds

    Anyways not that it matters but Canelo is a beast and soon he will be fighting and destroying the best then haters still wont be pleased.

    I like Canelo and I like that he wants to step up and fight the biggest names possible. He is even learning English.
    I'm looking forward to his next fight.

    22 years old. Quite Young.

    Because somehow the forum narrative became Chavez AND Canelo are overprotected hypejobs when in fact Alvarez fought the likes of Miguel Vazquez, Euri Gonzalez and other tough opposition for a teenager at age 16 to 18. Alvarez came from nowhere with no name and no supporters to build his fan base on his own via exciting performances and Irish genes, few if any fighter in the past decade can show a resume like his before age 21.

    Of course knowing nothing about him or his career before age 21 and picking things up around Hatton or Josesito days doesn't help, but fact is, he's a self-made kid, there's ZERO fake in his young career. :deal

    Canelo hasn't fought a real 154 pounder yet he has a title. The training wheel talk is completely legitimate. Just look at his resume:

    http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=348759&cat=boxer

    He won this belt against welterweight Matthew Hatton, defended against journeyman Rhodes, then welterweight Gomez. Kermit Cintron is probably the best actual 154 pound fighter he has faced, then of course old welterweight Mosley and 140 pounder Lopez.

    Until he faces somebody rated in the top 10 of his own division, it is hard to say he is ready for somebody in the top 10 pound for pound rankings.

    So your saying he isnt ready uh? So how about you name some boxers that will beat him in the top 10?? Because i"ll tell you right now he beats everybody and Cotto and Mayweather are the only ones that can hang. u want him to fight K9?? hahaha.

    Now dont get me wrong, he's gonna fight nobody but the best from here on out but like i said in my post he wanted to fight the number 1 JM n Paul Williams but he got hurt so dont act like he doesnt want to
