Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Admits Cotto-Canelo Negotiations Are Tough

[MrRolltide91]

don't think he's going to let him dictate anything,penagaricano said this like two weeks ago,they are going to fight on their terms

im not surprised.

a couple of weeks ago I said this fight would be tough to negotiate

Forget Cowboy stadium, this fight should be done at Yankee stadium in the Bronx. Would be a bigger night for boxing then a fight in Texas. Nothing against Texas but that just seems to serve Canelo more then anything else. Also Canelo got a draw on a score card in a fight where the outcome was as if he wasnt even in the ring that night. Imagine the Score cards in Texas, lol.

Canelo is the A side.

Cowboy stadium would be bad-a$$!!!!! Cowboy stadium is due for a big fight!

word ive been saying that for a while that they can do it there and SELL really well.

[bigjavi973]

...or Cotto can fight Mayweather for the lineal MW title.

That wont happen I dont think floydie gets in the ring with this cotto.

[bigjavi973]

Cotto would be an idiot if he fights anywhere in Texas. Lets guess who the ref is going to be

I want steve smoger to be the ref.

[bigjavi973]

Such as what? What history does he have of making ridiculous demands? He's the A-side and should be compensated as such.

I think cotto has more haters than pac and floyd combined. Cotto hardly ever gets props for his wins.

[bigjavi973]

Canelo is a top 5 draw in all of boxing. IF Cotto was able to beat him (which he's not) then he would gain a considerable PPV push, and depending on how close the fight could be (which it won't be) then Cotto would gain a rematch, and another fat a$$ payday.

What does Cotto gain from beating GGG? Everyone will just say GGG wasn't as good as we thought he was.

What does Cotto gain from fighting Taylor, Lara, Trout again, etc?

Sure as hell nothing like if he fights Canelo.

They need each other. There's no other realistic big fight for Cotto.

a mayweather rematch... if pacquiao grows balls, a rematch with cotto over 150 lbs.

[bigjavi973]

Miguel Hoto is going to nickel and dime that fight into the cemetery with his rockstar attitude and prima donna sense of entitlement. We get it Miguel. You beat Sergio "Forrest Gump Legs" Martinez and Antonio "Earache My Eye" Margarito. Don't turn into Marquez now. Hoto.

[Larry the boss]

It IS the biggest fight that can be done next year, barring a sudden Mayweather/Haymon-Arum beef squash to make the Pac fight. But if Cotto gets too tough to deal with, he(Cotto) can always just fight Golovkin, something Canelo says he has no problem doing. Or, Cotto can just fight some weak title holder like Bundrage or unify with Quillin, two decent fights no one would really care about given the other options. Cotto would be ****** to not fight Canelo. It's a big, big fight that would gain a lot of popularity, and would surely live up to the hype with the styles these two bring.

Quillin has no belt anymore

Hahaha I told everybody here the same thing Oscar is saying that cotto would rather fight in June cause of the PR parade unless canelo fights on regular HBO I don't see him going head to head with mayweather
