I hope this Dubai talk is nonsense. The fight would be aired early afternoon in EST and late morning on the west coast. Who needs that??
OK I dont like Cotto. He has been brutally beaten and Broken I feel about this same as I feel bout Pac beating on Margarito. We all knew Mayweather is worlds beyond cotto not a good fight not enough speed to compete. Berto is who he needs to fight. The Unbeaten Champion. If Mayweather sighns for Berto then im ok with Pac taking a tune up vs Margarito Then meet next year doing this dont matter who wins Both built there legacy if may looses he we get to see it again.
IMO It will be either Williams or Martinez. This is probably why there is a delay in announcing their rematch as they are waiting to see if this pans out. I don't see why Floyd would fight Berto at this point.
Arum already said that the Dubai people are willing to stage the Margarito fight in the morning over there. Anything to accomodate the American PPV $.
Wouldn't it throw everything off though? I doubt the fighters would want to fight at 6:00 am local time in Dubai.
We in the UK end up waiting up till 5am for every fight in vegas....you should count yourself lucky sunshine
They'd have to adjust their training schedule. Calzaghe-Kessler was around 2am in Europe so that HBO could air it live. I don't think the fighters have much of a say. If they want to cash those big checks, they'll have to make the necessary arrangements.
Floyd will be fighting Mark Melligen in December and will win an easy UD. After getting in the ring with a welterweight Filipino southpaw in order to satisfy the demands of boxing fans worldwide, he will retire with legacy intact.
you do know who the current top 3 p4p fighters we have now right? Mosley i give him credit to, but JMM? :-(
I hope that the Pac and Margo gets canceled before Floyd announce his next fight. Pac then calls him out then Floyd goes back into vacation.
