The only way Canelo out sells Marquez is if Canelo fights either Cotto or Mayweather. Anyone else will fall short from Marquez-Bradley.

I hate it when the put two big fights on the same night.

Isn't Mayweather on this date aswell? Would be interesting to see if he really is "cinco de mayweather" going up against Marquez or Canelo

I struggle to see where Mayweather fits in, GBP didn't even mention him as a possible opponent for Canelo, they mentioned Martinez, Cotto and Angulo, it's obviously gonna be Cotto. Floyd will probably fight some time in December I think.

The article seems to state that Canelo-Cotto will be on "free" Showtime, not PPV.

Read between the lines...if Canelo's fighting on 9/14, Mayweather ain't.

So if Canelo doesn't fight Floyd will Showtime be putting Floyd and Canelo on the same card? Hmn......

[JohnDough]

Barring a loss or injury Mayweather will fight on 9/14. Please believe that. Showtime is putting a lot into Floyd. This deal was based on Floyd being more active than he has been in the last five years.

Poor Marquez, he has great fighter status but not superstar status... people will definitely watch Canelo vs Cotto.

[Bigg Rigg]

If Floyd really wants to fight again in Sept, he better fight Canelo cuz a fight with Devon is not gonna cut it. I see Floyd fighting again in May next year and Cotto will be the guy to fight Canelo. Ill have to watch that fight over JMM-Bradley first if it goes down.
