Is Cotto vs. Canelo the plan for December?

[-PBP-]

I think Cotto fights N'Jikam. Seems like his heart his set on becoming the first fighter from PR to conquer 4 weight divisions.

Nope cotto got msg booked and seems more intersted in facing the
frenchman at a catchweight.

And instead of moving a date nobody cares to see him to fight on, he seems deadset on fighting Quintana or Mayorga.[/QUOTE]

Oh trust me,Fans will watch.Thats y theres so much interest who
canelo fights next.Come on now,If nobody cared y so much outrage on
him fighting on that date?

Unless Cotto is dead set on becoming a 4 division titlist by fighting for N'Jikam's paper title, he will be fighting Canelo Alvarez in December.

GBP has already discussed terms with Cotto and his team, the money and magnitude of the fight would eclipse a N'Jikam fight and he can still fight him afterward, win or lose.

The fight could've happened in September if Cotto would've made himself available for it. Since he rejected it, Canelo's September fight will be to keep Canelo busy and slightly increase his profile.

All my points on Canelo, when Canelo-Cotto happens...

Yes, Karceno said that months ago

People actually listen to that guy?

Thats the best case scenario for GBP. Both parties IMO.

Personally, I'm a big Cotto fan but don't think he can beat Canelo in a 12 round fight.

Hopefully, it would be a good fight, do you really think Golden Boy will risk losing their cash cow? He hasn't fought anyone good yet (they must think Cotto is washed-up/ too small and slow). Canelo would have a hard time winning a decision in NY vs Cotto. Cotto would have a shot, but Canelo is probably to big for Cotto and he will wear him down winning late by KO.

If the fight takes place it won't be in NY......

All my points, avatar and sig on Cotto!

Enought said. Make it happen!

[DAN916]

I remember Richard Schaefer saying Canelos team wanted Kirkland (probably Mayorga now) in September and Cotto in December on an episode of the fight game is that still the plan?

They couldnt keep discussions with Cottos camp this secretive unlike someone with a lower profile and maybe from another country.

I think team Canelo wants that fight but team Cotto does not want it so it won't happen. I hope I am wrong because it would be a great fight and a big event.

whoever he fights... War Cotto!!!
