Comments Thread For: Canelo Warns Mayweather: I Want May 2, September 12!

[LouIE G]

This is very intriguing. Ever since June 7th when cotto demolished martinez, there's been talk of cotto alvarez in may. I found that mind boggling because may is usually Floyd's date to fight every year. I feel Floyd is feeling the pressure from a potential cotto alvarez fight in may and it's planning something big. In a few interview he's had, he announced the maidana 2 fight going down in September, but he's also said "stay tuned for a huge surprise for may return" Is Floyd vs pac finally going down?

Its either cotto or pac, though i think sept is more of a mega fight month... so i think his big surprise could be to win a title in a 6th weight class against cotto leaving canelo without an opponent..

Those days are for mexican fighters, why Floyd is fighting in mexicans holidays? he can fight in july 4 or others americans holidays

what's the point?

so you can try to outbox a grandmaster instead of using your size and power?

Shaefer confirmed in May that Golden Boy has dibs on Cinco de Mayo and Independance day dates with the MGM for 2015 already locked up. Doubt that changed just because Richard Shaefer moved on. If Canelo/Cotto is made then Showtime will find another date for Floyd, maybe July 4th 2015 for the guy that always complains american boxing fans don't like him.

I honestly believe that floyd fighting on Fourth of July weekend wouldn't be a bad idea lol as a talented as he is, don't think he's endeared him self to American fan base like dare I say the great sugar Ray Leonard........maybe fighting manny when the whole world was begging him for it would of helped with that

No he's saying he wants the date, not the fight with Mayweather.

Boxing is getting very interesting today..

I just posted a poll on this yesterday. I knew I was onto something, mexican fans would rather see canelo on those dates than floyd. It would help build his career. Just like fighting in June helped cottos and titos career. It's not rocket scientist

mexican fans dont drive PPV. Casuals do. Canelo dont have the power or status to move Floyd. 350 ppv buys dont even come close to cutting it

I think maybe it could just be he is going to fight some place other than Vegas
