Even in victory, he is concerned with the opponent he just knocked out. Classy guy, exciting to watch, very skilled, good body puncher, combination puncher. Future legend.
+JsTx92 pretty much. he has true taleny
jajaja
GGG
Canelo
Juan Carlos Alanis Perez
Talking shit ?
Ref: “Show me something”
Gets knocked tf out 🤣
Aha
I mean he showed him something. But it was him going to sleep lol
lmaoo 😂😂😂
😂 no mames
😭😭😭😭
You know the fight it’s done when You come back from the restroom listening the mariachi music🤷🏻♂️
LOL
lmfao
Yess 😹
Brilliant comment
😂😂😂
12:06 ref: “okay baby?” Kirkland: “no”
Lmaooooo
I just realized he didn't wanna fight no more holy shit the ref really sent Kirkland out to get shlept lmao 😂 that's fucked
@@rodrigoherrera279 😂😂
It's sad when refs mess up like this.
@@rodrigoherrera279 I thought the same thing, he should’ve stopped the fight there.. it’s the refs fault 😭
Kirkland saying the ref called it off, maybe that was in his dreams when he was out on the canvas
Seamus Cummins should’ve called it earlier...
He said the same thing when Nobuhiro Ishida floored him 3 times in the first minute of their fight.
Just before he got knocked down in the first round he winked at Canelo.
@@JorgeCruz-gb6kr My exact thoughts... he shouldn't have let him keep taking a beating after he got dropped the second time, that's a bad ref job IMHO.
He is not really protecting the fighter, remove the ref from this fight entirely and Kirkland goes on the first round but with much less future brain damage.
lmao the way he said "I tried to regroup, the referee called it off"
Canelo always concerned after a KO on his opponents. Awesome fighter and human being. He's a beast!
You two would make a great couple jessica!
Actually, he can't do anything to help. Probably just a pretense for the media and gain popular support. It helps to make more money and uses to work.
@@omural actually he is concerned,I would be concerned too who wants to carry a death in his mind? Although boxing is a sport it is dangerous and sometimes deadly.
@@omural hater keep hating lol
Jessica r u a real boxing FAN!?? Ok then please what's ur call on Canelo vs Jacob's??????
That is probably one of the most skillful and brutal 1st round attacks I've seen. I mean I was absolutely pumped after watching that first round. Hats off to Kirkland though, everyone admires a man with that much heart.
Agreed, Kirkland put it all on Canelo in the first half of round 1.
Yeah, I think he had Canelo worried for a moment with so much determination. That was a little scary. But Canelo swings sledgehammers.
That was his plan. He knew he had no chance so he figured the best plan was to go in and try to kill Canelo while he has full stamina. Canelo is just too skilled though.
Pure class from canelo for being legitemately worried for kirkland. 🇲🇽
Canelo basically punished him for trying in the first round
Canelo respect him and gave him what you give another warrior a beautiful knockout...Kirkland wouldn't want it any other way...Google his career....fuckin warrior just like Canelo..respect to both
@@terrencegriffin6812 he was in jail for 2 years before this fight im sure that can't be good
@@o1h823 Thats his journey bro ,jail dont define you actually for him to be off that long and work his way back up is a testament to him
.but hey im a glass half full type of dude I don't thrive on negativity
@@terrencegriffin6812 I'm talking about canelo bro how he always chooses the worst time for his opponents. Kirkland was literally barely getting out of jail didnt even have a training camp and canelo wanted to fight him right away thats some bullshit right there
@@o1h823 still best pound for pound
Kirkland trainer "he ain't never been in no fight like this"
humiliating KO the round after.
Alfonso Alvarez Facts
To be fair they are just trying to get their fighter to get hyped up and have some fire under him. The trainers gotta give their fighter confidence and motivate them. It makes sense how they were talking to him. They knew Canelo was a fucking superstar and realized this fight was a longshot for them to pull off. Gotta go all out lol.
They probably forgot Canelo’s been fighting pro’s with that style in Mexico since he was 15
Kirkland was in jail for 2 years before this fight he barely had any time to get ready
@@o1h823 Hey thanked Canelo for the check and bounced out of the game. The guy is punch drunk as fuck. He would have been toast either way if he had months to train.
Canelo checking on his opponent after a beautiful knockout instead of jumping around the ring. Absolute class act.
Who’s here after hearing Canelo reveal Kirkland was the hardest hitter he’s faced?
U can see it in all his reactions. Canelo was hurt in the beginning and even in putting it on thick before the end of rd 1.
Here ! I mean Kirkland wasn’t that much of a top boxer he’s only good fight was against Ángulo.
Kirkland has good punching power but lacked defense and speed
Where did Canelo say that ?
@@joelortiz8490 about the best puncher he’s faced ? He said somewhere in an interview I saw it online but not on CZcams
Two main things I like about Canelo, 1st he is an amazing boxer. 2nd he always waits to see if his defeated opponent is well before celebrating. Not enough great fighters remember the 2nd but Canelo always does. UK fight fan who 100% supports this man, this fighter, love Canelo. Great man, great fighter. Boxing needs more Canelos
daniel smith I totally agree, i'm Australian but this redhead is my favorite fighter
First someone try to kill another and then shows concerning about his health condition. I doubt it. Actually, he couldn't do nothing to help. It seems more like pretense for the media and to gain popular support. It helps to make more money. People are easy to cheat.
Watch again. Right after the knockdown he jumps over the ropes and celebrates.
Good point. I always look out for that too
@@omural He doesn't have to help, he's not a doctor. You can celebrate your victory and still care about your opponent. You probably never heard of the term ''sportsmanship''.
James Kirkland is a warrior though, I respect anyone who can take a beating and still want to fight
Rico The Beast Where is your evidence that he can take a beating?
He still came out after the first round.
The left hook he recevies at 6:32
The whole fight after the 1st minute
@@indiglo1971 If you can't see it by watching this video there is no way anyone can explain it. The evidence is in the way he took twenty punches or more that were as hard as the one that KO'd Khan.
I want to thank to Canelo for his sportsmanship concern. That is what you call a true winner
4:42 I've never seen someone wobbled like that from a body shot
3:25 Kirkland is like oh hell no
😂😂😂😂😂
hahaha
"He is done".
Hes like "fuck that shit" hahaha
He did
"You okay baby show me something"
OK LET ME SHOW YOU MY BLOOD 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
@@AlbertoGarcia-hk6jd haha!
That's why you ask "Do you want to continue".
@@josephverdecia3159 lol a fighter would never say he dont want to fight anymore, that's what he do "fighting". It only happens 1 out of a 1000, when a fighter is truly outclassed
FBI Open Up makes sense
I never get tired of watching Canelo fight. It's too bad that one day he'll have to retire. Thanks for posting this fight.
that will be a great day! All of the canelo fans can dissapear like Floyds fans 😂😂😂
@@datawolf2318keep crying until then loser😂 LMAO
@@datawolf2318bros out here commenting on a 8 year old fight you a canelo fan lowkey
@@luismejia2374 bro on here commenting after 9 years dude idolize canelo 😆 🤣. He wasted his prime fighting mid talent or passed prime fighters. Such a waste canelo had a lot of potential.
@@datawolf2318 shit ima fan bruh but you being a hater and watching a old ass fight is sad 🤣🤣
14:24 damn this is clean. Canelo looks all the time to the body, prefect timing with the right hook and then head movement to dodge. One of the most satisfying KO ever.
😭that's what I call look down but come up 😭
12:47Canelo shows real class here. The very first thing he considers before celebrating- is his downed opponent. Real Sportsmanship. Kirkland fought bravely but Canelo showed in this fight where he will go...
You can see the genuine concern in canelos face he thought he mightve killed him
He did stand on the ropes just after he koed him though. But he didn’t stay long in there, he came back
@@venicec3310 fr tho you can see the genuine guilt in his face
Dam every time I go back and look at all the Canelo fights I realize he has a new girlfriend every fight lol
he learned that from FLOYD..
@@juanlayton2848 it's just part of the game.
Kingnelo has women who are thirsty for him
@@juanlayton2848 Not even Pendejo
And a new child too hahaha
14:27 just look at all the muscle working up to that massive shot. I seriously think it would have killed me.
Rick Sanchez 🤣😂 you and me both! I would of still been recuperating from it 🤣😂
@@MrCdeliz2059 that is so funny, because it is true. 😄😄
My jaw would be completely shattered
My head will be 100 ft away from my body 😂😂
Yeah I’m gonna need surgery after a hook like that 😂 and a new face
Kirkland wasn't ready to fight Canelo! Canelo is too much for him! This was a very easy fight for Canelo! Canelo didn't even give it his all! Canelo could have stopped him in the 1st round!
How come that he wasnt ready? Kirkland is older, and at that time Canelo wasnt event at the top.
Moron 😅
Canelo is a BEAST. Def. my favorite boxer at the moment, and it's hard for me to watch most boxing matches these days.
That knock out was freaking insane 😱😱😱
Canelo said in an interview that Kirkland punches harder than Golovkin. Oh well.......
He been in the ring with both so he can tell.
@@kikearellano8384 Yep!
Those uppercuts were like rockets coming out of nowhere! Canelo has good fundamentals
Canelo I feel like is one of the only men in boxing that I would feel safe giving my child to.
Toasty Waffels 😂😂😂
Are you gay
ronjeremy123 what??? He’s not implying that he wants a marriage or anything
Yeah I agree. He's a trustworthy guy. Very straight forward. He has a big heart!
@@adf286 That's what I'm fucking wondering 😂😂
This was a savage beating 😧
Fr and the knockout was brutal too
Canello wasn’t even at the top of his game at this time either
I love when Canelo fights brawlers.. Stylistic wise, makes for lit fights
Humildad de canelo, se acerca a ver a su oponente, en reconocimiento que es un gran guerrero caído en batalla. Pocos peleadores tienen ese gesto.!
Man, Canelo just absolutely pieced him up. I’m amazed that Kirkland made it out of that first round. Tough dude. Canelo is an incredible fighter.
Awww!! Canelo asked him "You ok?" 19:43
3:25 Kirkland is like " fuck that shit, I m out"
9:36 when you have that perfect smile.
*Canelo is on a whole other level.*
6:44 “he’s hitting him with everything but the kitchen sink”🤣🤣🤣🤣
That last punch was the kitchen sink.
i didn't hear that at first hahaha
Haha
But la chancla
OMG !!!! 👊 Canelo is the man !!! O" YES"" talk about speed and power !!!! He's a Humble guy. 👊
Kirkland was game for about a minute, when he felt Canelos power he was like oh shit, such a weird reaction from one of the toughest dudes in boxing.
What are you talking about Kirkland was literally throwing 90-100 punches around throwing more than twice.
It wasn’t for lack of effort and bringing it or scared of power. Kill or be killed and was killed.
Mawesome fighrt
@@oldironsides4107 That's how Kirkland always fights, even on autopilot. You can see his confidence gone after the first knockdown.
Becoming a fan of this guy Canelo..he sure has skills
I have never seen this guys eyes away from his target for a second.He is different than other boxers.
And also he is a good person too...that what I feel everytime I start watching his matches against his opponents.
great great action fight!! wish all fights were this exciting!! canelo is so fun to watch and kirkland is never in a dull fight!!!
+Eric Gordy learn how to fight bitch
ufc is only exciting when you have toe to toe action, its pretty boring when they roll around on the ground
Pretty sure that's because you're ignorant when it comes to wrestling and BJJ.
+JUNGLEsausage no its just boring
No it's not just boring you just don't know shit about it.
19:42 “estás bien?” “Si” .... “Te respeto” “y yo a ti “ el mejor momento !!!! Valorar al contrincante, ser humanos, ahí termina la pelea
María Guadalupe Nava
I love u Maria G. Nava
@ eston agarin, me too! You are absolutely gorgeous Maria!!!!!!!! :) ;) :)
hombre con inteligencia si entra en pela al terminar gane o pierda así es la despedida solo es coraje ,carácter, entretenimiento y lana $, los golpes sanan ...jej saludos desde TAMAULIPAS 🇲🇽✌️👍🏾🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🇲🇽🦅
I’m happy to say that I was born in this era to see This legend Canelo fight !!!!!!
Same here
Finally they put it up, oh and shout out to Holly Holm for knocking that bitch out.
+Old Creepy Guy Hell yeah!
+Old Creepy Guy fun fact; holly holm has been training mma with winklejohn for 15 years. Therefore boxers still suck.
+Broski MaKorski but your on a boxing channel watching a boxing fight
Raphael Colon i like boxing
+Broski MaKorski but she used her boxing to set up that knockout.
R.I.P Amir Khan
-_-
Amir will ko Canelo
Rashed Miah XD made my day.
Yeap, RIP amir khan....
+Manny GoodingB i don't think Khan is stupid enough to come out like this against Canelo haha
I'm from ajijic exactly where canelo is from and damm every time I watch canelo fight makes me so proud on were I'm from and my people 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🙏
One of my favorite first rounds in boxing, like to watch this once in a while.
This was a fucking *GREAT* fight. Canelo Alvarez not only has tremendous punching power & accuracy it seems, but has a stellar "fight IQ" as they call it. He thinks of where to place his punches and can assess a situation well. That was the difference in this fight. Credit due to Kirkland also, he's a tough warrior. Kellerman sums it up well at 18:30: "...create something special for boxing fans that were hungry for that kind of fight". This was just a week after the snooze-fest that was MayPac. I mean fans can appreciate tactical efficiency/strategy to an extent, but that was plain boring. Everyone loves an all out war like this fight was.
+MrBibbityBop You talk about ring IQ but what about the ring IQ floyd used to school both Canelo and Pacquiao?
031ish The Pacquiao fight was boring as fuck. Floyd did nothing but run the whole time. I can appreciate Mayweather's skill and fight smarts but the guy is scared to get hit. When was the last time a Floyd fight was half as entertaining as a Canelo fight?
+MrBibbityBop He actually only "ran" whenever he was threatened with being trapped. pretty stupid to think you'd win a decision by running all fight long.
MrBibbityBop Present Canelo would kill Floyd if they fight again
@@031ish canelo was 23 if that.
Now this is a fight! Gotta love canelo cause he can adapt to any style of fighting.. gonna miss the HBO broadcast 🤐
God I miss HBO boxing , commentators were and are the best that have ever done it , HBO boxing needs to comeback maybe offer Canelo a multi fight deal since he’s the biggest attraction right now to bring it back with exposure
Awe Canelo is so sweet and caring checking on Kirkland! Great fight!
Kirkland went to fight mad respect for him!!!!!!
20:36 “I tried to regroup but evidently the ref called it off”...dudes you was out cold!
Best fight I ever saw in my 60 plus years of watching boxing.
6:45 he’s hitting him w everything but the kitchen sink” lmao
One of the best fights I've ever seen.
Eric Gordy Coming right after the Mayweather/Pacquiao snorfest, the Canelo/Kirkland fight was awesome.
+Eric Gordy lmao this dud doesn't watch a lot of boxing lol Kirkland has a glass chin
You should watch Mickey Ward v. Arturo Gatti trilogy..
The Lamborghini Chris beat Rihanna in Kirkland has an amazing chin, are you crazy?
Man you can't question Canelo resume at all, and Floyd predicted he would be at the top. Kirkland was a beast and a humble fighter, but he came across a bigger beast
This shit is still one of the most brutal KO’s I’ve seen
Both fighters have been hurt in the 1st round! What? Never saw Canelo hurt in the 1st.
"hes wearing down he's never been in a fight like this"... Kirkland's corner must be smoking crack where they are!
well next time I'll try to sit near them lol
Minute 1:35 Kirkland's head backs up into the camera and BOOM! Instant Jerry Curl stain! 😂😂😂
☠️☠️☠️☠️
tough and well fought no dirty shots just pure strength and endurance = wow thank you 2 warriors - both champions .
Who remember when 50 cent said Kirkland was finna knock canelo out 😂
They should have more fights here at the Minute Maid park. It looks good.
My favorite fight of the year so far. two of my fav fighters going to war!
+Lucky Nangnang Yes
Va HOSS He has been fighting top competition since 2013. You can't deny that.
Va HOSS Get the fuck outta here u hating ass flomo. Oh n one more thing. U were trying to pretend that u was white, didnt you? U fucking lame!
Lucky Nangnang
Boxing is brutal no grappling straight blows to blows technique hell of a fight heart and skills. Long live boxing canelo is great.
You can say everything you want about Canelo but he is a HARD WORKING ATHLETE and an Awesome human being. He donated a ton of money for the victims of the Earthquake in Mexico and helped restore the cities. AMAZING.
When the ref asked Kirk if he was OK, Kirk shook his head indicating no, that he was not OK and the ref ignored it.
oh my days! that was a F***ing brutal knock out!
Canelo has heavyweight power in a middleweight body. He's amazing.
12:50 Canelo be like:
“ I think I hit him to hard” 😂😂
When Canelo has him on the ropes to start the 2nd, I want everybody to look at how powerful those punches were. Kirkland is a MANS MAN to stand up
Even at 1st round,before he dropped him and that 1st kd. These punches were perfect in all aspects. Kirkland literally doesnt care, you have to kill him to stop him.
eso se llama desmayar
pinche CANELO, eres chingon,me gusto esta pelea ,y arriba México
Love watching Canelo fight💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
This was a fight!!!
This is a Fight! After this fight, I became a Canelo's fan. He showed a lot of skills, and heart in this fight. Great Champion!
It's amazing to me to see 2 intense warriors such as these to bring an audience to a standstill and stand up in the 3rd round!
CANALO ALVAREZ was not hurt at all in this fight I don't know what that announcer was watching .
Canelo my favorite since 2010!
Mexican style at its best!
Whats Mexican style??
some questions you don't ask
Real boxing is mexican style. Not afraid to get hit. Unlike mayweather hits and run and hugs like mfr
Roger Strong Basically the style of walking someone down and getting hit to give hits. Center of the ring all action type of deal.
Nooo Name Or you can just answer his question 🤷🏽♂️
Canelo Alvarez P4P the BEST FIGHTER IN THE WORLD 🌎 Latino/ Gringo”
love this. Mad respect to both fighters.
Canelo is a class act!! His Sportsmanship earns respect!!
Cinnamon basically retired this fool after this fight 🤣🤣
i felt so bad for kirkland, my best wishes go from him and hopefully he bounces back
Canelo is always concerned for his opponents when he sees them on the ground, such a humble man👏
1:35 Kirkland took a significant strike before the fight, he was already concussed
Canelo hit him so hard, he had to go check on him😂😂😂!
Legend says that Kirklands soul is still there in that very ring.
I'm on a Canelo binge till the fight tonight vs smith!
Look at the concern on Canelo Alvarez’s face after he knocks out Kirkland, he was over there making sure that he was OK and you could see the concern on his face for James well being that is the sign of a truly humbled fighter.
Why would he be scared of GGG if he wasn't scared of maywheather ?
hes not it just comes down to business
not to mention the highest payday from floyd
ma dude mayweather is scared if triple g. He just broke kell brook's eye socket lol. Triple g is a different beast
Who the fuck is scare of a pillow puncher like mayweather?
Carlos Ayala Canelo may not be scared but his coward ass don't wanna fight GGG
Damn I never seen such a beat down
Massive respect to both fighters. Anyone who done tiny bit of boxing knows how powerful and nasty upper cuts can be. And to stand after such it. Amazing.
Never tire of Canelo's fights!!!
The more I watch Canelo fights, the more I appreciate this guy. He's getting better and better. Was beaten by GGG in their first, made a draw in their second. Ko'ed Kovalev at Light Heavy. Very impressive.
After what Kirkland did to his sparring partner this is so satisfying to watch , only thing wrong with it is the beating didnt last longer !!!
I love the sportsmanship between these two,showing respect to each other,that's pretty cool!!!!
Seeing Kirkland do his sparring partner like that only made this KO that much sweeter.
