Do People Forget Cotto Calls The Shots Against Canelo?

[BOXEO _]

Canelo did better numbers with Lara and Angulo than Cotto did with Martinez...just saying.

Wrong! Canelo/Lara did 230k, while Cotto/Martinez did around 350K.

[sbbigmike]

seems like you are the only one who didnt get the memo...
230k was for cotto-maravilla and 350k canelo-lara...
do i really need to explain this again??

Explain away, and make up things

This........


If Canelo did 350 vs Lara, he wouldn't have been relegated back to regular tv

Yup! Good post.


Canelo isn't the draw he was made out to be. He's lacking something, can't put my finger on it though.

Industry sources say Alvarez generated 360,000 pay-per-view buys earlier this year against Alfredo Angulo, and around 325,000 buys vs. Erislandy Lara in July, a bout that competed against the World Cup.
“We’re proud of the work we did with ‘Canelo’ in establishing him as pay-per-view star,” Espinoza said. “I’ve heard Cotto’s fight with [Sergio] Martinez did 230,000 buys on HBO. If he thinks that’s a better route … ”

Maybe, maybe not.

He just doesn't have that "I'm the next face of boxing" vibe.

Maybe because Floyd schooled him? Lara lost the fight more than Canelo WON? I just don't connect the dots with Canelo.

Will he be popular? Yes. New face of boxing? I don't see it.

He's in a tough spot, too big for JMW and too small for MW. Canelo needs a new trainer also, Chepo and Eddie took him so far, Nacho will be a great fit

Gonna be interesting if Cotto gives away the homecourt advantage and fights in May out in Vegas when he can decide to fight in June at the Garden on the PR's big weekend. He's the MW champ, will fill as many if not more seats at MSG, and can have his way at the negotiating table.

A Mex/PR fight will garner huge money whether in May or June, imo. Tis gonna be a hot 2015 to say the least.
