    I can't see any fight close to this except floyd/manny or wlad/vitali-2 fights that I assume will not be happening.

      It looks like it will probably be...

      Mayweather vs Guerrero
      Canelo vs Trout

      Canelo vs Cotto would be big on Cinco de Mayo weekend but I don't see GB talking Cotto into fighting on an undercard, unless they do a dual main event.

      ... and probably a crap undercard. If they really want to make this card as BIG as Schaefer has been talking they need to put any combination of the below GB Welters/Jr Welters on the undercard...

      Ortiz vs Berto vs Alexander vs Matthysse vs Maidana vs Peterson

      (Malignaggi, Mosley, Khan & Josesito Lopez all already have April dates)

        If they want to match Canelo with Floyd down the line, I think they should avoid a Trout vs Canelo fight next. Trout is going to upset him

          I could see that happening. Cotto might be too much for the kid too...

          They'll probably match Canelo up with Angulo who no longer appears to be the fighter he was prior to Kirkland.

              I agree, they ain't breaking no records in May. Would still like to see a stacked card though... for a change.

                    Without a major superfight to headline it aint happening. And for them to even attempt it by stacking the card would be ******.

                    I love boxing a much as the next guy but I am not gonna make iy through 4 or 5 televised 12rd fights without being too hammered to possibly miss the main event completely.

                    Also from a business standpoint it makes no sense to stack a ppv to break a record and ley all your other ppvs for the remaining year tank completely.

                      first things first.... grab a delorian, go back a few years...

                      because the only thing that breaks records is mayweather vs pacquiao...

                      like i've said before, i know this is boxingscene, but the reality is the majority of people that buy a ppv dont watch..... and dont even care for the undercard, so i have no idea where you guys think having a stack card makes some sort of difference
