    They want to make money, Trout doesn't generate money. Now that Cotto lost, they will try even harder to make this fight happen because it means big money. Cotto may be on the fast decline too so better get that name on Canelo's resume before he is seen as so far past it that a win over him doesn't even warrant clout.

      damn stole my post i was just going to post this.

      i can't believe people on this site are making excuses for canelo he hasn't fought one damn fighter that poses a threat.

      the only fighter he fought that had one pulse was ****ing cintron and i think he's retired.

      any fighter you name can point to one point in there career where they stepped up all were asking is for canelo to do the same and quit with the fu**king excuses.

      lopez had no fu**king fanbase but canelo fought him,baldomir,matt hatton where are the big draws that canelo has fought?

      so why does trout have to this big fanbases?

          It's all about the TV audience and there's no reason to believe Trout will draw a smaller audience than most other potential opponents now that he's convincingly defeated Miguel Cotto.

          But by the criteria which has defined Canelo's career to date, Cotto is clearly the more desirable opponent. He's smaller and past his best, two big pluses for Canelo's people.

          I don't necessarily have a huge problem with Canelo, as a 22 year old, not facing elite opponents all the time. But given the status he appears to be gaining in the sport, and given that he is the WBC 154lb champion, it is time for this guy to face a legitimate threat for a change.
