    That's the problem.

    I'm not sure why Canelo's getting kudo's for attempting to fight a hurt Kirkland.
    Check the last 10 years PPV events for Mexican Independence Day weekend. Oscar/Godlen Boy were part of all those. That's their date...They're not moving from that date.

    October is reserved for Chavez Jr-Martinez PPV. Whether the fight happens or not...It is reserved

    November is reserved for Pac against possibly JMM IV.

    Golden Boy is not moving from a traditional date man.

    This.

    They don't care about making Canelo P4P elite fight now...They just care about marketing him and building his star potential. To make the Floyd event the biggest it could possibly be...Having an 0 next to his record will help that cause.

      Besides, if Canelo beats floyd, and I have always believed he would be the guy who exsposes an older floyd, the p4p stuff will take care of itself.

      People need to realize Canelo can fight floyd, cotto, sergio, chavez jr, kahn. Canelo will be the dominant ppv fighter for the next 5-10 years if everything breaks right.

        The WBC just made Kirkland the mandatory. Are they going to give Canelo another mandatory now. The winner of the last eliminator? The #1 contender? Lara? Nope.

          I think for this PPV 100k will not cut it...I think their goal might be 300K maybe even 250k Cotto-Mosley PPV buys.
          You not counting the millions of Mexicans spread out on the USA if the fight is staged in Mexico plus others fans of the game they will make 300 000 easily...

              The fight won't be staged in Mexico it would be U.S...Canelo-Lara great fight doesn't do 300k.

                  The only thing I know that GBP is in big $h1t now after Sulaiman announce the fight to be a mandatory, if they don't take Vanes or Lara they will be open for a law sued and no judge will be sympathetic to neither one of them, Sulaiman-GBP...

                    Don't know...But, it would have done more than Lara...Even though Lara is the better fight(er) it would have done more.

                      I don't think GBP is in trouble...But, maybe the WBC??? Vanes already talking about the suing the WBC...If Lara doesn't get it he should do it too.

                      Lara can sue GBP to get out of the contract saying that they don't have his best interest if they give the fight to a fighter outside of GBP.
