If Floyd wants that mega pay day he needs to fight Canelo in September not may of next year. Canelo looked to vulnerable and he is going to struggle against the elite of the division. I think he can beat them but he does look very beatable, so an upset wouldn't surprise me. I don't think it does more than 1.6 mili PPV buys. If it was on HBO then I think it would do 1.9-2.2 but its on Showtime. Still the atmosphere would be crazy!
Hmm...ducked the best at 135 in their prime (mosley)
ducked the best at 140 in their prime (Tszyu)
Ducked the best at 147 in their prime (Cotto, margo, pacman and williams)
ducked the best at 154 in their prime (martinez)
yet you think floyd will fight a 154 fighter in or near about his prime who is not shot like cotto when he eventually did fight him
one question
what are you *****s smoking?
the guy is a straight up fraud, he has avoided the best and built this record in the media, he would get his ass whooped by the top 10 p4p ww of all time, they all kick his ass and yet you guys think this guy will fight a prime 154 fighter, jesus christ, this is the same guy
who demanded 14 day drug testing, only to change his stance when agreed upon by pac
then demanded no cut off drug testing, only to change his stance when agreed upon
then demanded he take a vacation first before taking the fight....only to change his stance when the phone came ringing
then right at the end, to make sure he could avoid being k0d by pac, he suddenly changed the 50-50 split by low balling pac by offering him around half of what he would have normally earned after offering it in the first place
I hope your right, would love to see it. I think if Canelo gets on PPV this year and proves he's a draw, which he will, I think they will make it happen.
There is no Arum to keep Floyd from making this one.
It really comes down to how much does Showtime have a say in that process. If its all up to Floyd it won't happen. He will fight Khan and say he was the #2 WW at the time (complete bull****.)
If Golden Boy or Showtime have their way it will happen next year. After that Floyd would be way to old.

get off that stuff you are on
come on man post some semblance of the truth. its cool to hate floyd but when you have to lie and omit facts to do it its silly. everything you posted has been documented and proven false by any and every reputable media source. All thats left is posters like you and hacks like scoop maliknowski that repost/reprint the same garbage day in and day out. Its not working.
I know you had a bad year last year, manny loses twice (i thought he beat tim) then got embrassed and KTFO by a guy floyd toyed with. Now he's supposed to be running to fight in China since HBO and Vegas start making ped testing a priority. Nonito let you down last week so you're even more pissed.
ITs ok dude. Manny will come back again and nonito will get his shoulder reattached or whatever and then they can go back to dominating one dimensional fighters and you can be happy again.

Am I missing something, did Ortiz or Guerrero prove that they were a draw????
Is Canelo not a bigger draw than every other opponent that Mayweather has ever fought, other than Cotto and Delahoya.
Considering Ellerbe was the one who enthusiastically announced that Floyd would be fighting in May and September this year I see no reason why this fight won't happen in September. If the fight doesn't happen this September, then they basically dug their own grave.
floyd could box alvarez for awhile, but canelo only needs one punch and he could spark money
I think you underestimate the chin of him. He took mosley bombs very early and still didn't get kd'ed. Actually he's never been hurt, floored (except against zab) or looked shaken. He could have a demonic strong chin, but it's never been tested to the point where you can say that it's iron, but since otherwise haven't been proven, i believe it is a very dull statement.

This coming from a Floyd fan.
The difference is Ortiz or Guerrero don't pose any actual threat to Floyd's "0". If he is going to take on Canelo, its going to be because he thinks he can break his own PPV record.
If Canelo does well on PPV Golden Boy, Showtime, and boxing fans will be pushing for the fight.
One PPV fight for Canelo and Floyd will have no choice but to consider the fight.
