    And yeah it makes perfect sense, I can be on a PPV card with the biggest draw in the sport or I can be on regular Showtime on "my own card"...why not throw away the extra money and recognition, who needs it right?

    The joke is on Canelo:lol:. Floyd doesnt need to fight him, this dude hasnt even headlined a ppv. Floyd can starve this kid out if he wants.

    Are you ****ing kidding me? Canelo is gonna be huge as long as he keeps winning, dudes only 22, super fan friendly, and Mexican. You think that if floyd decides not to fight him his career is over? Please tell me how that worked out for Pacquiao.

    You really think Canelo made less? I haven't heard the numbers but future earnings count here too. His fans don't want to see him as 'second' on a card.

    Next time you have nothing to add to the conversation feel free not to make a fool of yourself and post anyway.

    Standing offer. Prove I work for TR and get $1K. Make the accusation without proof and you pay $100. Not that any of you fools will ever honor that or STFU because you have to be an idiot to believe it in the first place. Pete the Princess is so precious. :rofl

    There must not have been much money for the undercard, since GBP's main man south of Broner got paid half of what 11 fight Rigo made, and like 30% less than Shiming is getting for his second 4 rounder :lol:

    Yeah, he's going to get his $32-33 million per fight regardless, though none will probably have the upside to push him into the $40-45+ range that Mosley, Ortiz, Cotto events did.

    Umm no. Canelo being on the Mayweather undercard beating Trout and dropping him wouldve increased demand for the fight

    Outside of mexicans nobody still doesntbknow who the **** Canelo is. Floyd can not fight Canelo and the hype will never be as big as pacquiao

    I dont understand why people think Canelo has to fight Mayweather to become a star:huh Pacquioa didnt have to, Hatton didnt have to, the K bros didnt have to and Cotto didnt have to. those guys arent making 32 million per fight but their making way more than what the average man need to live. As long as Canelo keeps fighting live bodies he will become a star.

    :huh PLease tell me you don't really believe this and is just "acting" like a pointless Floyd fanboy.

    Canelo, at this point, has a higher ceiling then Floyd did at the same age. He has fans who want to see him win, not lose.

    If Floyd and Cenlo never share a ring, or a bill, that won't have any more effect on canelo's purse then it will Floyds.

    Try to talk like an adult who knows boxing in the future. Thanks Dunks!:good
