Golden Boy will announce tomorrow Canelo Alvarez vs. Josh Clottey in December on HBO

[luisivich]

canelo doesn't have pacquiaos speed. clottey 'will fight canelo the same way he fought cotto and margarito. this is a hard fight for canelo.

[icha]

**** fight. Clottey is too boring at the big stage. I understand Canelo should get a tune up considering he's had difficult fights but it's still crap.

i kind of agree with you , i was praying for the kirkland fight at the alamodome, but at least canelo isnt fighting the salkas of the division...

[thabanga510]

I hope the fight is not on pay per view.

[FrankieClutch]

Not mad at all. Can't wait for Canelo-Cotto in May!!!

[Skip Bayless]

damn big news. gb fighter back on hbo, oscar making **** happen

[Luiz]

Showtime is taking hit after hit. Damn.

[risk235]

Will there be some people getting axed over at Showtime? First the PPVs aren't producing a profit and now Canelo is going to HBO.

[The Big Dunn]

big loss for showtime.

HBO goes into 2015 with manny, canelo, chavez, cotto and GGG the 4 biggest ppv attractions and 5 biggest stars in boxing after Floyd. Add to that Crawford, Verdejo, Kovalev and Mikey and Ward (when they decide to fight) and HBO has solidified its position as the #1 boxing network.

Showtime and Haymon had better use their roster wisely since they already are in 8-10 million fewer homes than HBO. they better start in Dec 2014 with Broner and Matts.
