Comments Thread For: Oscar: Fans Talking Cotto-Canelo More Than Floyd-Manny

I wish this were true.

Hell yeah this is the fight to be made in 2015, the Mexican-Puerto Rican rivalry (and the boxing public in general who are eager for real fights) are going to go crazy over this, no doubt! And Oscar is correct about the fatigue of the long-standing Manny Vs Floyd bout, people are just tried of the nonsense. I'm a fan of Manny but sadly, he lost some of his lustre with the common and casual boxing audience when he was ko by JMM in their fourth fight. Pac gained some of it back with his win over top 3 p4p Tim Bradley but the fight with Floyd won't be as hot as it would have been a few years ago. Minus the groupies, the boxing world is tired of Floyd's BS and his "fighting style" is just a straight up eyesore to begin with. Canelo-Cotto, I'm definitely buying that, stack the undercard and shhhit, it eclipses anything next year.

floyd/pac is still the biggest fight, but cotto/canelo is the better fight!

[MC Hammer]

I really think Oscar is over estimating both guy's popularity. In 3 seperate PPV's one being historical in nature, these 2 guys didn't even make 900k buys. Casuals don't care about it and neither guy is interesting enough to make the 24/7 gather new fans.

The fight itself looks a consilation win for losing to Mayweather. Its a batlle of "also ran's"

funny aint it...does Oscar forget Floyd already beat both of them and took their titles?

No one is saying they are better than Floyd.

Im excited for this fight. Hopefully it happens.

Canelo becomes the "Face"

[Motofan]

Of course fans are hyped for Cotto vs Canelo. Its an action packed fight that is very likely to actually happen. Pac and Floyd means so much less now than it would have years ago and people are sick of it not being made. One is a great fight and one is a pipe dream.

Pac/TBE is dead. It's gotta be true.

Oscar is back on that coke again and I bet he's been shopping at Victoria Secret also. The guy really hates Floyd's guts.He's still pissed Floyd beat him and is making more money in one fight then he made in 5. Oscar is a POS who failed to come through the big fights. The loss to Floyd turned him into a crackhead, cross dressing heater. ......No one is talking about Cindanelo vs. Cotto like it's the biggest fight coming up. ... Dude should apologize to Richard and get him back before Arum sucker him and still what's left of him company

dlh trying 2 make the bout bout IMO, don't think Alvarez will have that much trouble w/ Cotto...

A Pac/Mayweather fight would blow Cotto/Alvarez out of the building.
