Alvarez v. Cotto @ 160

Not PPV :twisted:if he just picks a random guy just to "Save The Date":-(

:smoke

 

All the people who thought Canelo beat Lara will pay to see him fight joe blow because they don't know any better.

 

It is up to HBO

 

Take no stock in what DLH says. If the farce of Mayweather/Cotto II comes to fruition, Canelo will be sitting out Cinco De Mayo.

I believe all of these negotiations are a ploy and Cotto/Canelo comes off. Canelo's backed off 50/50, and it would be a snake move for Cotto to backstab Arum and Oscar in such a fashion. The $40 million number was a complete fabrication, and eventually Mayweather will be moved off that date.

 

Flom0s: "but... but .. bop arum wants may2 so it's ok if floyd duck poochiao for a recycled cotto fight"

 

Nope. Oscar just wants to keep his fighter busy. I did not like ODH as a fighter but as a promoter he is doing the right things.

Hope the Arums and Kings will disappear soon cause ODH wants to make the big fights for the fans. :deal

 

Doesn't this come down to who books the date with the MGM? Assuming it's at the MGM.

And no, Canelo should not have the date regardless of who he fights.

 

Chris Van Heerden sparred with both cotto and canelo for their last respective fights for months....he gives great insight on cotto and canelo and goes into detail on why he thinks cotto beats canelo...great guy goodluck to him this weekend

Around the 24 minute mark he goes into detail

 

Not bad, I wouldn't call it deep but he makes a few interesting points. It's a fight I'm looking forward to.

 

I never called it deep, having sparred both men ide listen to his take over anyone elses

 

Definitely.

 

Great interview, thanks.

So who was the fighter he dropped in sparring? They talk about it near the end.

 

I wasnt so sure myself im going to google it

 

I beleive Chris speaks about what most of the boxing world already knows when comparing Canelo to Cotto.....should make for an intrigueing match.
