Floyd Mayweather Jr dares Cotto and Canelo to fight on the same date

[radioraheem]

if nobody is fighting at mgm on that date why go to NY? when we all know that mgm is the mecca of boxing and thats where the money is... and we are not just talking about cotto's money, but everybody else involved in that fight...
that fight deserves to be at the mecca of boxing on the biggest boxing date period..

Because of the difference in fight advantage. Vegas is the advantage for Canelo. While New York is the advantage for Cotto. Canelo does not have more leverage over Cotto. Rafael and others think this fight will be easy to negotiate, but it will not be. And Team Cotto has already sent out a warning shot about how the terms will be dictated. That says more than anything Rafael has said.

Too right man

according to arum negotiations have already started...

Now speaking of Tom and his guy, they're pushing for a Cotto fight, but it seems maybe Cotto and Canelo might happen in May. Can you comment on that?

"Yeah, that's what we're trying to do. Have Cotto and Canelo fight, and Gennady is right there, probably could fight the winner."

How far along are negotiations for Cotto and Canelo?

"I think they're ongoing. I know Todd (duBoef) is here in town, he's talking to Oscar. I think Cotto's in town. So, you know, it's taking place."

Do you know around when it might get announced?

"Well, let's see how soon it gets made."

They should know better than to even try to go against The Moneyed One/TMO/TBE.

Yeah, the same Arum that said yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth. The same Arum that said they have to build an outdoor stadium first in order to make a certain mega fight.

I think I'll wait and see how everything unfolds. It's a bit too early.
