Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Miguel Cotto is also an Option For Canelo

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya has big plans for WBC/WBA junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (42-0-1, 30KOs). After unifying the titles on Saturday night with a decision victory over Austin Trout, the Mexican star is looking for big things in the fall. Canelo wants to return on Mexican Independence Day Weekend, September 14th, in a major fight.

At the top of Canelo's list is Floyd Mayweather Jr. (43-0, 26KOs), who defends his title on May 4th in Las Vegas against Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero (31-1-1, 18KOs). If a deal with Mayweather cannot be reached, or Guerrero pulls of a major upset, then another good possibility for the fall is former three division world champion Miguel Cotto (37-3, 30KOs) of Puerto Rico.

If Floyd ducks Canelo then I wouldn't mind seeing Canelo-Cotto.

Cotto Has

Its gonna happen and its going to make a ton of money.

[ChampBox@PR]

It will be Cotto, this is pretty much a done deal!

[Redd Foxx]

I'd like to see it and I bet it happens because Cotto brings money.

Its gonna happen and its going to make a ton of money.

Pretty much, debut PPV.
Every PPV earner has a breakout fight.... if this happens, this will be Canelo's.
It all hinges on Cotto though

[HWChampion]

Canelo eats Cotto, then goes onto beat lara (fingers crossed). And canelo beats mayweather. wishful thinking.

[Queen_Leia]

The Golden Boy acts like Money is just another opponent that Canelo can make a choice on....Money is actually more in the drivers seat than Canelo is.

Money is getting 30 million a fight with or without Canelo. When Money decides to fight Canelo, he will and if he doesn't he doesn't...

The Golden Boy really, REALLY dislikes Money.

Cotto is on the down hill, but?

Cotto vs Canelo is better than the Trout bout. But Cotto is not the same fighter
anymore, he just fights good fighters gets a good paycheck and is punch drunk bound, I told you first.
