Who is next for Canelo?

This Saturday 17th we watched the fight of the month, Canelo VS Smith.  A lot a comments say that it was basically not a good match to put these two fighter together, but at the end of the day we still wanted to see what happened and get to know a little more of Liam Smith.

During the fight it was noticeable that Smith couldn’t keep with the movements and speed of Saul Alvarez. Smith trapped Canelo against the ropes a few times and when we thought things were going better for him Alvarez blasts back with some good punches that sent Smith to the canvas a few times.

Smith did throw good punches, but in round 8 he went down to the ground again after a series of uppercuts that Alvarez connected. Canelo saw the opportunity of doing some body shots and look for the KO. In round 9 Canelo started dominating even more and made a great body shot that for the last time made Smith go to the floor with a lot of pain, after just a few seconds the referee called the fight over and Canelo won by KO.

But now, what is next for Canelo? Is it Genady Golovkin GGG like everyone is expecting? He said at the end of the fight that he didn’t fear anyone and he also made a few statements regarding some offers that were made to GGG. What we all know is that we want to see that fight happened soon.

Liam Smith is going to defend his WBO World Super-Welterweight Title against Canelo Alvarez this Saturday 17th.  Liam has already defended his title two times against Jimmy Kelly Jr and Pregrad Radosevic.

For Canelo Alvarez this is an opportunity to have another world title, he previously held title belts from the WBA and WBC. In Canelo’s last fight in May vs Amir Khan he thru an amazing punch to knock out Amir Khan and retained his middleweight crown.

This time Canelo is going up in weight from 154 to 160 and he says that no matter what weight a fighter is competing at, it takes hard work and dedication.

Oscar De La Hoya was asked; what does Liam Smith provide in term of helping Canelo to get ready for a potential fight with GGG? “Well, first of all, Canelo takes every fight seriously and never looks past anyone. Liam Smith is an undefeated fighter, the WBO Junior Middleweight Champion of the world, has knocked out his last eight opponents and comes from an outstanding boxing family. The plan is to face Smith – a big, bruising 154-pounder – in September, and if Canelo emerges victorious, to start making his way up to 160 pounds and fight Golovkin on equal turf (in terms of weight). ‘’

We will see what happens this Saturday, Liam Smith is very confident and prepared for this fight, and they say that he helped Amir Khan prepare for his fight vs Canelo so he already knows some insights of Canelo’s game.

Carlos Cuadras the defending champion looking to keep his belt and add the first loss on Roman Gonzalez record, and Gonzalez also know for Chocolatito looking to make history becoming the first Nicaraguan boxer to win 4 titles in different weight classes.

Since the very beginning until the last minute of the twelve rounds the fight was pure action, back and forward punches, we could hear the chants from the crowds cheering “Mexico-Mexico” as well as the Nicaraguan fellas.

It was a fight that no one deserves to lose, and one thing we know for sure, boxing won that day, that was the kind of fight that we want to watch, that kind of effort, heart, crowd, that’s what every boxing fan asks for.

IMG_2852At the end of the fight we saw a Roman Gonzalez face that we have never seen before, we could see the struggles of the fight, which himself considerate “the most difficult” of his career, on the other hand we saw a confident Carlos Cuadras, smiling, nervous and waiting for the scorecard, everything seems normal when we heard the 115-113, but then there was a 117/111 which cause some controversy at the end.

Was it really worth this fight for Brook?

For many the result of GGG vs Special K fight was much anticipated, it was matter of time for GGG to show his power punches over Brook, on the very first round Brook got hurt badly and for a second some of us thought that the fight will not last longer than the second round, but in exchange we meet a very brave Kell Brook who we all saw by moments trading punches toe to toe against Golovkin, and expose that lack of defense he had. At the end happened what many people were thinking GGG won the fight.

Dominic Ingle did the right thing by stopping the fight, I could have been worst; at the end of the day a broken orbital bone will put Brook out of action for several months. Do you think the risk of moving up two divisions and facing GGG was really worth it?  Much respect for the very brave Brook and for his corner.

We made Carlos Cuadras gloves for the fight he is having this weekend vs Roman ”Chocolatito” in Inglewood, CA.

Our gloves have been preferred by many world champions since 1945, with extra-long laces, cowhide leather and horse hair padding the gloves make a difference in every fight.

In the last fight that Carlos Cuadras had he used our gloves in metallic gray and orange combination, this time he decided to choose a metallic blue with the Mexican flag colors around the logo, his punches are for sure going to be notice.

As him we are excited to for his fight this weekend, he mentioned in previous interviews that this is one of the most important fights in his career, and he trusts in his training and hard work he has been doing with his team and trainer. We wish luck to both fighters and hope that all boxing fans enjoy this fight.

Regarding this fight, on recent days the WBA’s president Gilberto Jesus Mendoza inform that the WBA Belt will not be on dispute for this fight due the fact that Brook jump 2 weight divisions, and the organism considers this a risky move.

“What we regret the most at the WBA, is that there is no one at the 160 lbs  willing to face GGG and the fact that a 147 lbs   jump up two divisions to do it, is very bad” declares Gilberto Mendoza, WBA president.
