Comments Thread For: Canelo Warns Mayweather: Not Moving From 5/2, 9/12!

No brainer that the Zamunda residents are just dumb in expressing a syllogism -- they never attended logic classes in that remote territory.

Whar are you basing Floyd doing 250 K on?

Floyd is never getting a number that low. Not while he is undefeated anyway.

How does history prove that?

I don't see Floyd moving off those dates regardless.

Because any real logical human being and fan of the sport would rather watch Cotto-Canelo. You really think Floyd would do better numbers against Khan?

Floyd will move because Showtime won't be ****** enough to go against the 2nd biggest fight boxing could make that's not Floyd-Manny.

And wtf, history shows anytime Floyd vs Manny comes up it never happens. And with Floyd being pushed to either make the fight or go against the 2nd biggest fight boxing could make, Floyd will more then likely either not fight or change his date.

...

Cotto vs Canelo does 750K tops which is a great number truthfully. Floyd vs Khan might do 750 here in america and possibly do the same in the UK. That would be a win for Floyd and showtime.

...

... "Da only problem" is that the Khan fight doesn't happen -- because the Reebok-gloved Khan would beat the **** out of "da TBE".

Not to mention it's a huge risk going against Canelo-Cotto, and we all know Floyd doesn't take risks.

Urmmmmm.... What does the colour of their skin gotta do with it?
Americans should want to see an American fight.

So these so called middle class and upper class fans what would they rather see, bare in mind these are probably fans of the sport who enjoy entertainment...
So they have Canelo Vs Cotto in the one corner
Then they have Mayweather Vs (Flat footed plodder) in the other corner

Hmmm choices, lol do they pay to see what they know will happen or do they pay to see an awesome atmosphere clash of Puerto Rican Vs Mexican fighters the biggest rivalry in boxing?
It's a no brainer, Floyd will have some idiots who want to spend $69.99 to be bored to death then some smart people who will pay the lower price of PPV to watch an absolute war and likely a great undercard.

Here take this

you are truly ******. color has nothing to do with it-it's just an observation regarding the demographics of the majority of US ppv purchasers. A such, they are going to be catered to.

They have proven they will continue to support Floyd fights. They haven't proven they will support Canelo or cotto-especially considering the ppv for each last year were considered disappointing by their own teams.

You can label people however you wish, at the end of the day Floyd has proven to generate large sums of money for all involved. Canelo v Cotto is a huge fight that will definitely attract people.

I will not respond to you anymore

... Because of the FMJr vs Canelo fight, maybe? The biggest PPV sell in the history, maybe? Because he who fights pillow-gloved opponents only didn't release his PPV numbers for his last fight, maybe?

As I said before Canelo's follow up ppv was a disappointment and didn't hold purchasers. As opposed to say floys, whose drop from the ODH fight to the Hatton fight wasn't nearly as far as Canelo's drop.

they dont, except for when one of their top guy is facing another top guy on a day where they get together to celebrate.

they don't drive sales then either. The demographics makeup of the US doesn't change on May 5 or September 12 weekends.

Canelo and Cotto has a very real chance of taking the date. I am aware of that and even believe dan is correct-if cotto/canelo gets made Floyd will not fight on the date.

That said, its not as easy to unseat Floyd as it would seem. I know NSB likes to pretend he doesn't generate any money but he does. It isn't as easy to make the money as posters think.

Dude...that's not going to happen. Mayweather doing 250 because casuals choose Cotto-Canelo? Be serious for a sec. Yes, it's a better matchup, no casuals don't really care.

Possibly, the casuals are always going to chose a Floyd fight over another. Canelo-Cotto would obviously hurt the sales but I doubt it would do better numbers.

I very much doubt Floyd changes his date no matter who he's fighting and who else is fighting on that day.

There is no way Floyd does a number that low. No chance what so ever.

Sorry dude but people get to make choices just like you do. They may prefer to watch Floyd v then they would cotto v canelo.

Oh lord, now Floyd doesn't take risks on PPV battles either
