Schaefer was just saying last week how Trout was too much of a risk for Canelo and how that fight is not confirmed, seems to me that they don't want to fight Trout and to get out of that fight they will put blame on Mayweather "BECAUSE HE WON'T COMMIT FOR SEPTEMBER" will be the excuse

This is really interesting and if i am Canelo I wouldn't fight on May 4th and fight trout in June. Canelo has nothing to loose, he is 22 and has the Mexican fan support already, it took years for guys like Floyd/Pac to develop into PPV attractions. Canelo can headline a PPV himself and see how well he does and a 250-300k buy is great for him and build on that, better yet he should jump ship to HBO and HBO knows how to build stars and he can be that guy. There are some good fights at 154 for him and if he keeps winning the Mexican fan base will ride with him and he can fight Money in 2 years. I would also think he has already made 5-7 million from his fights/endorsements/etc..Last edited by yis1; 02-26-2013, 11:54 PM.

i dont, canelo is a big superstar and should do good in the ppvs. why do you think mayweather keeps wanting to fight on the may 4th weekend?

ok........heres what i want you guys to answer me. I have 1 main question...........
canelo wants a guaranteed fight with mayweather (if both guys win)
QUESTION ONE
what if canelo gets a close life and death SD win against trout? or what if he robs trout all together & canelo is awarded A gift? this is not out of the question in fact i think it's a 60% chance that this could happen.
A fight like that would destroy the marketability for floyd vs canelo. because if gbp knows a guaranteed mayweather bout hangs after trout theres a chance that all canelo would have to do is make it to the final bell & he gets the decision regardless of what happens.
so what if canelo goes life & death with trout or gets a huge gift?
this is why looking ahead of opponents (and signing a guaranteed fight) is always difficult and i think someone in team mayweather understands that.Last edited by Godsfly; 02-27-2013, 02:07 AM.

Man this better not be true...
Dammit man we could possibly have had one of the best PPV cards in recent memory and now it could be scrapped???
Screw who is to blame on this one, this puts the sport backwards...They could've had 1.75 to 2 million plus PPV buys if they had those 2 fights put together and then had buzz after that card passes waiting for the next big event...
Please patch this **** up so we could have a great card
