    They might try and get Margarito in to make sure the PPV at least sells a bit. Dunno if Arum would want to do GBP a favour though:D

    Everyone is scared of Canelo.

    Just making excuses to duck him.

    Agreed. Ive been saying this for a while now, its not because of bad fighters, its because good fights like these pretty much always get cancelled.

    For ever step forward boxing makes, it takes 5 steps back

    It was obvious JK wasn't ready! what did i tell you?..poor man was taking the fight to seize the opportunity.
    To believe that someone who went to mexico to fight angulo is afraid of canelo its just dumb.

    Lara or Molina would be nice, but c'mon guys, you don't get the feeling they saving this for a Floyd-Canelo fight, even if they do move it to late in the year? I have a hunch they might setup someone for Canelo in Sept, but it would be someone low risk.

    Cotto or Molina/Lara. Either one of these 3 would do.

    It's the Canelo curse! In case the WBC and GBP weren't enough, now the gods themselves are protecting Canelo. :lol:

    maybe the winner of Trout/Rodriguez or the winner of Spinks/Bundrage. It's still going to be on PPV regardless.

    Angulo's best bet is the fed's new emphasis on deporting felons in custody over the summer. He probably won't get out in time to fight in September, but could be fighting in Mexico by the end of the year if he gets sent home soon.

    The guy is an absolute idiot. He had the money to get an attorney and a working visa or green card. Hell, his promoter has attorneys. Instead he commits a violent felony and loses a year or more of his prime.

    Canelo vs. Angulo on Mexican Independence Day would have been huge.
