Floyd Mayweather might not fight in MAY?

[Obama2.0]

I disagree respectfully!!!! If the Cold War is over, and because HBO IS A BIGGER network than showtime, De La Hoya will work with Bob Arum and HBO on his fighter (by the way is the biggest Mexican draw) holiday and put him against Cotto just to hurt Floyd!!!!

They hurt themselves in the process so instead of getting a million plus buys two fight in networks split 1.5-1.8 million buys respectively it doesn't matter which sells better they will split all revenue not to mention the usual networks like Espn and such would also capitalize on ads and ad placement you will make loyal beer sponsors pick sides it will be a cluster **** and the guys at the top wouldn't wanna deal with it.

If HBO was going to bump heads with a Floyd date they would have been done it; they are not in the business of getting beat head to head and that's exactly is what would happen.

Who can Floyd fight on Showtime PPV and beat Cotto vs Canelo (2 Hispanic) on HBO Head to Head?

Which fight would YOU put your money to see on PPV?

Your missing the point it wouldn't matter who out sells who. The fight want reach it's full potential from a money stand point going up against a Mayweather fight the same with Mayweather going up against Chavez froch or Canelo Cotto. These ppl wanna make money for sure money. When you get names this big you will wait to have your own night and capitalize. A Cotto Canelo fight may 12th does way more money than a May 5th fight up against Mayweather you know what I mean? From a business stand point they want do it.

Are you insane? Canelo Cotto > anything Floyd can do.

The networks could force Floyd to another date because a Cotto vs Canelo would be more lucrative

I understand what you are saying.

But on a serious note if that was to happen. I see Floyd trying to move to Fourth of July weekend or something like that if they really were pursuing a May 5th date. It will be a lot of grandstanding but it's supply and demand and who ever has the best product would win out.

Haha just answered that lol

Bingo.
As much as Floyd says he the boss, he's not.

Put Garcia on the Canelo Cotto undercard and Floyd will be fighting on the 4th of July selling 800k again.
