QUOTE (JLUVBABY @ Mar 6 2011, 11:33 AM)  we'll see who he fights next... if its a gimme i think its pretty obvious they are protecting him... like ive always said... if you wanna be the man and wear a world crown you got to step up... you dont learn on the job as a world title holder.... The thing is that between him and Berto, they're both being paid tons of gold for fighting easy fights. As long as that's the case nobody's going to be in any kind of hurry for them to step up. Berto fighting Ortiz is almost funny. |

Berto fighting Ortiz is almost funny. yes but i think those days are numbered with the amount of young talent out there that HBO has on their roster right now, when HBO wants a fight it will get made. Williams v Martinez II; Miadana v Kahn; Bradley v Alexander. I think Berto v Alvarez this time next year is a great fight, both can be hit and Alvarez has the star power to sell the fight. I think Berto vs Ortiz is going to surprise a lot of people and be a good fight. Ortiz can bang, is a southpaw, and can box. He's not slow and if he doesn't fight Berto will take his head off. To say he's picking on a JWW is not necessarily true because Ortiz is taller and has weighed more come fight night than Berto in his last 2 fights. Its basically time to put up or shut up for Ortiz, if he takes a loss here he's got a lot going against him Kirkland will be ready for the top of the division in two fights and is on the Golden Boy roster, Berto v Kirkland or Alvarez v Kirkland are good fights |

Alvarez vs Angulo ain't happening any time soon.
Because of his power Angulo is IMO the most dangerouse fighter out there for Canelo at 154lb. I give Alvarez a good shot a beating Cintron though if he applied the pressure needed. We all know how much Cintron loves pressure.Lol |

Joel Julio would probably be the next step for Alvarez.

QUOTE (Snoop @ Mar 6 2011, 06:31 PM) Joel Julio would probably be the next step for Alvarez. is joel julio even ranked to receive a title shot? alverez holds a strap now... if julio gets next shot that is truly fucked up... he has lost all of his test as a fighter.... the next available contender whom ever that should be deserves next shot at the kid... |

Vanes martisyon should get a crack at Alvarez he should provide a good test for him.
I Know Vanes is an Arum fighter so it's not likely but it would be a good test and a good win for Alvarez |
