Another Rapper Burned By Canelo
Jay-Z
Rapper Jay Z and his rip off boxing companies Roc Nation
Sports/Roc Nation Boxing just took an embarrassing, high profile
blow. Jay Z, who loves
stealing
people's copyrights, trademarks and ideas, when he
doesn't know what he is doing, made a $100,000 bet with
boxer-turned-promoter, Oscar Dela Hoya, that his signee, Miguel
Cotto, would beat rival pugilist Saul "Canelo" Alvarez
(the money will go to charity).

"bro, why are you trying to beat the stuffing out of me!"
I tweeted about Canelo before the fight because I believed he
would win and he did. Cotto is a great fighter as well, but
Canelo definitely had the edge going into the fight, which was
evident by many of his recent performances and the fact he is
the more devastating puncher of the two. Sometimes a fight
really can go either way and that must be taken into
consideration, but sometimes there are clear indicators as to
who will win.

James Kirkland
This marks the second rapper that has been proven wrong going
against Canelo. Bankrupt rapper 50 Cent has been pretending to
be a boxing promoter, after hanging out with retired champ Floyd
Mayweather. In May, 50 Cent sent in his signing, James Kirkland,
who was not ready for Canelo for
a number
of reasons. The fight ended in a knockout.

Once again, beware signing with rappers who decide overnight
that they are boxing promoters (the boxers know more about the
sport than the rappers - how are they truly going to help them).
Boxing is not as easy as it looks. It's very high risk and not
an easy game. Stick with the professionals who know what they
are doing. Don't risk your livelihood on people who lack a true
understanding of the sport and will end up wasting valuable
years of your career you will not be able to get back.
