    Cotto and Canelo have an awful lot of accountants that post on ESB.

    Glad the fight has been made and both boxers are making good money.

    This will be an interesting fight but I think Canelo breaks him down. Then Canelo will fight GGG. That is the fight I want to see. Canelo may take less on this fight but he is setting the stage for a mega payday with GGG.

    Goes to show how Canelo is a fighter for the people. He’s willing to take less money to give a great fight for the fans.

    Lets also remember that Cotto is the MW Champ and this is for his title. With FMJ holding the Jr Middleweight titles hostage, Canelo has to challenge for Cotto’s MW title.

    As much as I would like to see Floyd Canelo 2 at 154 I am even more excited to see the future of the Middleweight division. The thought of the Cotto Canelo winner facing the winner of GGG vs Lemieux in 2016 for a unification fight is really intriguing. Do you think Canelo and Cotto could compete in both the Jr Middleweight and Middleweight divisions if needed?

    What’s a bigger fight to you:

    Floyd vs Cotto / Canelo winner for Jr MW Titles
    GGG/Lemiuex winner vs Cotto / Canelo winner MW Unification

    Whats funny to me is they offered cotto 10 million prior to the martinez fight to fight canelo. Cotto took the martinez fight knowing win or lose canelo fight is still there. He won and is now going to make almost triple that amount....good **** #warcotto

    A side, B side who cares? This should be more like pro wrestling with a faze and a heel. Lately Cotto has taken over as one of this sports biggest heels.

    damn now we see why he is in no hurry to fight double G. He'd probably get paid 1/3 of this to fight him

    Does anybody know why Alvarez would accept less than a third of the money for this fight?
