    The BIGGER picture (for those that know)

    Just so you guys know:

    - The fight between Pac and Mayweather has been signed for November 2012. - Each has agreed that they will fight tune-ups in May and June.
    - The constant back n forth between the two camps is the beginning of the build up for the super fight in Nov.
    - Pac is fighting Cotto again to rebuild the image he had after he fought Cotto the first time (the time pac-floyd would have been at it's best).
    - Floyd will fight Canelo, an undefeated yet untested and possibly the safest yet most acceptable fight for him to take.
    - Pac destroying Cotto faster than last time and Floyd dismantling Canelo will give the super fight back the lustre it once had 2 years ago.

    This is how things will pan out this year, mark my words, no superfight in May but it will be signed for Nov.

    Youre being a bit too optimistic.
    But that just means we have to pay for these fights.
    How can you be sure the fight is signed on november?
    We want to boycott the fights so that they have no choice BUT to fight eachother.

      Would you still want to boycott the tune-up fights if you knew the fight was signed for November though?

          Both camps know they have pushed the public to the point of breaking and this would be one way they could guarantee the public buys one more non-pac/may fight before they would be forced to fight in Nov....

            It's pacquiao and mayweather.

            This happened last time and one party didn't want drug tests. I won't believe it until it happens.

              The thing is, Floyd goes to jail in June. He won't get out til September. I don't know if 2 months is good enough time to do everything.

                That's exactly right......they never intended to fight in November, they are just trying to string the fans along longer. Because you know that if they are saying that from February until May isn't enough time to make the fight, then no way is September till November long enough.

                  He can train in jail.... the promotion will be done while he is inside.

                    Yes but now until Nov is heaps of time to build the fight, Floyd's not going to solitary confinement, he's going to county jail. He can begin his training inside if he doesn't get out early on good behaviour and then resume as normal once out.... Floyd/Pac late November 2012, it's going to happen.
