Comments Thread For: Saul Alvarez-Josesito Lopez Reportedly Done For 9/15

You can't really blame Golden Boy for this move.

It would be really ****** of them to put Canelo in with a top guy because they are going up against Chavez-Martinez.

The only way Canelo's fight is competitive in terms of dollars, would be against Floyd or Cotto.

So obviously they aren't going to throw him in with any tier of fighter right under Floyd or Cotto; they'll wait until they are not going up against one of the biggest fights of the year.

So I understand where they're coming from, but with that said, I think this is one of the worst matchups they could have possibly made. I'm glad i cancelled Showtime the other day; I was just worried that when I did, they were going to announce someone huge.

It's unbelievable that with the bar set so low already, thinking they were getting Mayorga, they were able to do worse.

Hopefully next time it's a real contender.

This has got to be some kind of feint.

Let everybody get all righteously pissed off and then it makes it sound better when they announce Mayorga?

Just ****ing sad if it's true. I keep tryin' to leave myself room to get on the Alvarez bandwagon, but how am I gonna' do that if they pull **** like this?

I wouldn't be surprised if they do pull something like that. Just for the simple fact that I don't believe Lopez's team would advise him to take this fight, not even three months after the Ortiz fight. There are obviously better fights out there for the guy, but instead his manager, trainer, promoter, etc. are content on the kid committing career suicide right after his biggest win.

Protect the Canelo hype at all costs, even if it means hurting the career's of your other fighters..(Lopez, Lara, K9 just signed with GB, right?)

[johnm is...]

[Rome-By-Ko]

This is very disappointing,will this be on PPV??I doubt it..Alvarez keeps proving me right,when will this guy step the hell up??

[SN!PER]

Happy for Josesito ($$$)

Sad for the fans.

He'll put up a good fight, but the weight will be too much for him in the end.

so if you were a promoter you'd match fighters the way a "fan" on nsb would?
"**** this money ****... the best fighting the best... blah blah blah."

you'd be on the street and looking for a new job

this is how boxing works. you will have to deal with it and be patient, young one.

all you're doing is showing that you've only seen one generation of fighters, or else this wouldn't be anything new to you.

loved the red karma bar. delicious. if you knew anything about this sport you'd realize that you're complaining about boxing being boxing. why dont you whine about the sky being blue.?

canelo will fight floyd in 2013 and more than likely in the winter. he'll be 23 years old.

Bruh, you're acting like we're asking Canelo to fight MIKE TYSON or something lol

No, we're saying fight someone who deserves the fight in your own damn weight class. Why is that so difficult?

Then you'e talking about knowing boxing history and all this stuff.

Did Ali fight Liston at like 21?

Who was Tyson fighting at 21?

No one's trapping Canelo in the cage with a wild Lion and throwing away the key. Unless you feel Austin Trout is some incredible beast LMAO Or we're asking Canelo to do something that we've never asked someone with 40+ fights to do. But oh wait, you're the boxingscene businessman, right?

There has never been anyone in the business of boxing that has EVER done what we're asking Canelo to do, right?

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Very disapointed if true.I was hoping canelo would unify.If canelo
wanted to look good,He should of chose mayorga.

You're the man carnal. I knew you were better than that. Green K for you. At least you didnt try to justify it. Even tho the Mayorga fight sucks too.

[borikua]

lol that was weak.

[Money_May]

who's after this an all Mexican clash with JMM for 135 supremacy. I don't believe it will be jose lopez it simply can't be lol
