Comments Thread For: Photo: Canelo is Already Ripped Up For Lopez Bout

Unfortunately. Alvarez is probably the real deal, but they better let him prove it before he gets too comfortable with hand picked fights. A guy can only feast on overmatched opponents for so long before it affects him negatively.

And that's what his fans don't understand, he feast on crap and when the time comes to eat real food he may get sick

Josesito is a good kid, humble, well spoken, and respectful. He fights hard and has a tremendous heart. I just can't see him beating Canelo. Alvarez by late stoppage.

[rey guey]

some people are just ignorant

Josesito is a JUNIOR WELTERWEIGHT that is 140

Canelo is a JUNIOR MIDDLEWEIGHT that is 154

that's 14lbs difference in weight class.

Josesito didn't even look that good when he fought Ortiz at 147, when he came in at 144. what's he's going to look like 10lbs heavier?

what in a few months can he put on 10-15 lbs of muscle?? well not without some serious dopping.

Lopez might come in at 150 and probably be 150 on fight night. Canelo will rehydrate to 170+

this isn't a fight it's a joke and if Canelo has a difficult fight it isn't because Lopez is that good it's because Canelo is awful.

you gotta be a serious nut hugger to support this garbage.

Yep, Eric Gomez under some serious heat by matchmaking upsets that financially drained his company. No Ortiz-Canelo. No Mayweather-Khan.

Gomez and Golden Boy playing their cards ultra safe, as Canelo is their reigning cash cow on a leash. If Lopez pulls the upset, Oscar will be blowing left and right to save his childhood friend.

There is a certain amount of leeway given to a prospect, that if it continues into a championship is cheating, plain and simple. Outweighing a guy by 15 pounds is the same as putting cement in your gloves. Unfair.

But I still hope for an upset........

Very well spoken. I couldn't agree with you more... What a lot of people don't realize is that Saul was tested pretty hard early on. He beat current champion Miguel "El Titere" Vazquez twice at the age of about 16 or 17 and beat former U.S. amateur standout Larry Mosley, in his U.S. debut, when he was only 18. This proves to me that the Saul does have something; however, like my friend here said, he could start, if he hasn't done so already, developing an expectancy to have easy fights! Which, obviously, is no good.

You guys are crazy.

It was supposed to be Kirkland, PWill, then Ortiz, all three are good solid fights. Josesito won his way into this fight, by breaking the jaw of the bigger fighter, now he has his super bowl. This is the storylines that make boxing boxing, and somehow it's Canelo's fault. Yeah, he's a 140 lber, but he earned this fight.

Canelo is 5'9 and built solid, Josesito is probably the same height or close to it, he can pull a Holyfield and lift some serious weights and get it done. I used to think Canelo was a fraud, but I came around and I like the guy, he's going to be an elite fighter I believe. Josesito earned this fight, it's not Canelo's fault, and honestly GBP tried to make 3 good fights that didn't come through and it had to be someone. Josesito is a big longshot to win, and rightfully he so he's 140 lber, but don't hate on Canelo for it.
