And that is the fact that both Pacquiao and Cotto HAVE THE SAME TRAINER. I don't see anyone mentioning this. We all know that Cotto isn't fond of shared training camps and I don't see any way that Roach can effectively train both at the same time for the types of caliber fighters they are both looking to face.
For this reason alone I don't see how both Pac/Floyd and Cotto/Canelo can happen on the same date.
i've mentioned it before along with the fact that having two big ppvs on the same night doesn't make financial sense either.
also top rank is in partnership with HBO to broadcast the remainder of pac's fights. but floyd only wants showtime. why not HBO and showtime like arum suggested??
and i don't know why floyd insists that he only fights on may 2nd. sure it'll make good financial sense if you fight a mexican on that date, but pac isn't mexican. plus if canelo (biggest mexican boxing star) fights on that same date against cotto (biggest puerto rican boxing star) you can be very sure that a lot of mexicans and puerto ricans would rather watch that fight.
fight should be on 4th of july long weekend at cowboys stadium (80,000 capacity) and both HBO and showtime broadcast.
who gives a sh1t??? was Mosley Mexican??was Hatton Mexican?? was Cotto Mexican..ya'll need to stop running with that bullsh1t excuse Arum pulled out of his ass
