Arum says he'd match Chavez Jr. with Canelo 'immediately.

[BostonGuy]

The Ciudad Juarez newspaper reported today that Sulaiman wants to wait another 2 years before he wants the fight to be made.

Yeah, Boxingscene ran that story today and it was pointed out that, is Sulaiman now a promoter?...

I think Sulaiman make a slip up when he stated that he wants to the fight to made in 2013 like it's up to him or like has influence on whether it happens or not...

Paul Williams vs a bum. OMG!! *erection*

Im actually fans of BOTH fighters genius.

This fight is lame.

Why? its a good fight neither fighter is really great Canelo has much more talent I think but Jr is bigger and neither has really any notable wins yet.

Since you're so into the $$$ business with Mayweather and Williams and also claiming to be a fan of them(Canelo and Jr.). This would make $$$$$ in Mexico, lame or not. It makes business sense dawg.

It just doesnt do anything for me. To me it seems like the powers that be are trying to hype this up as some superfight between rivals when its not.


Chavez vs. Pirog, Williams, Martinez.

Alvarez vs. Martinez, Williams, Cotto, Angulo, Wolak, Dziznziruk.


Are much better more meaningful fights. I dont see why everyone is excited.

I mean its not a super fight obviously more like a fight between prospects who happen to have pretend world titles but it shouldn't be boring.

I support this idea. Maybe early next year. Man, I feel like celebrating. I think two hype jobs should lose to each other like Timothy Bradley vs Devon Alexander. I don't want to see another Juan Manuel Lopez scenario. Although, Orlando Salido deserves the win since JuanMa took him for granted. You know two more fights him and Gamboa would have fought at PPV earning big bucks. Anyway, Canelo vs Chavez Jr. is a good idea. Bob Arum is taking a big risk since he will lose one of his golden goose/cash cow like JuanMa. What is Top Rank doing? Same thing with GBP? The fights are all entertaining and what the fans like to see. I think they are searching once again for another PPV star and to do that boxers have to go through a gauntlet of trial by fire. Good luck!

Canelo people got jump on this and call Arum's bluff Chavez Jr would lose in the next couple of fights might as well be to Alvarez

@loudibella @danrafaelespn And who says Chavez/Canelo can't fight three or four times in their career? Fight is big enough now

[BostonGuy]

I say why not? Both fighters are riding high a wave of popularity, are undefeated and have titles and this fight would be huge in Mexico. If the fighters, promoters, tv execs, etc. wait too long, one or both of these guys might lose a fight or two and then this proposed fight isn't as big...
