Comments Thread For: Canelo on Cotto Talks, Mexican Dates, 2014 Run

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Mexican superstar Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (44-1-1, 31KOs) is very satisfied with his 2014, where he headlined two Showtime Pay-Per-View events. In March he stopped Alfredo Angulo with a one sided beating. And then came back in July to win a close twelve round decision over WBA 'regular' junior middleweight champion Erislandy Lara.

Sounds like it's closer according to canelo.

[Small Turn]

I have no problem if Canelo wants Cotto on May2,2015. If not Cotto then it's BS.

Canelo vs Cotto will be a guaranteed foty candidate. Really hope it gets made.

He's said Cotto's people asked for the catch weight. Interesting!

[Nightfall]

not sure how this fight can have a weight problem. both fighters fight under 160. something else is going on in their negotiations. cotto is the A-side. he's the champ and more accomplished fighter. i really like this fight but both of them have mayweather problems.

He better get used to saying, "because that is what Cotto's people have asked for"!

Whats so interesting about that? It needs to be over 154lbs to be a WBC middleweight defense. Pretty much every one knew it would be at 155lbs. Whats interesting is how last week De La Hoya proclaimed Canelo has agreed to all terms and they were just waiting for Cotto, but this week total 180% opposite, lol Now thats interesting.

[SlySlickSmooth]

Can someone explain to me the point of the 155 catchweight for two guy who don't even want to weigh in at 160 themselves?

[Cinci Champ]
