    Pretty certain that Oscar has gotten Canelo out of the Showtime exclusive contract, and now that his cashcow is free from network exclusivity, Oscar can make the Cotto/Canelo fight on HBO PPV.

    So, no, if Floyd insists on May 2 on Showtime, it's gotta be May 2 on Showtime, or BOB is a frigging jerk and thus robbing Manny of his legacy win.

    However, if Bob has ANY sense at all, and if Oscar wants his cashcow to become a great, he HAS to take 2nd chair to Floyd for ONE SINGLE DAY, allowing Floyd Pac to move forward on May 2, while setting up Canelo v Cotto as the chief support.

    Floyd is a business man first and foremost, and he knows that adding Cotto vs Canelo to his PPV would nearly double the already record buys it will undoubtedly receive.

    I've always maintained that adding Cotto Canelo as chief support, even adding the 20 million to make that fight, would bring that PPV over 2.5 million buys. That would make Floyd 120 mil for a single fight if Pac agrees to the 35% split, and Cotto and Canelo can be made for 20 mil.:think

    Oh, I was not aware that the reported PPV numbers werent the global totals. It must take a lot of figuring to learn how much a fight actually generates

    You really believe they could put Canelo-Cotto on the May 2 Floyd-Manny card? That is too mind blowing for me. That would be the biggest event since ALI-Frazier 1. Its too mind blowing for me to believe/comprehend:scaredas:

    Pacquiao posted an Instagram shot that said he wants Floyd for 2 reasons, his son's personal request, and because it's the fight the world wants. But scope out this quote where Pac is clearly trolling Floyd:

    "I don't want my son to think of me as a coward."

    This is clearly in response to one Kouran Mayweather, who made the following quote to USA Today:

    "My father is a coward."

    :rofl

    Floyd uses JMM's victory to taunt Pac (clearly not knowing that it makes him look even dumber and more cowardly in doing so). I think Pac needs to be less of a gentleman and just stomp on the gas.

    Pac should call Floyd out for beating and imprisoning women.

    "Floyd will punch women, but he won't fight me."

    :rofl

    Depends, could still be PPV. Manny/Hatton was. Groves/Froch was.
