A damn shame really. Why is it in boxing that the bigger star you are the more difficult it is to make a fight with another star?

Because they start to become Divas. Cotto is already a Mayweather wannabe. Sergio Martinez found that out 1st hand when he started negotiating with Cotto camp

Cotto has beaten better fighters.. hmm like Trout? Last I've known Canelo vs Mayweather sold a whole lot more than Mayweather vs Cotto. It is clear that Canelo is the A-side, he has a bigger following and it's his name that will sell more ppvs. Who did Cotto beat to earn his MW belt, a washed up Martinez with torn knees? hmmmmm... Cotto the Diva has been acting like Mayweather lately...

Canelo didn't even win clearly against Trout. What the fack are you on about? Mayweather vs Canelo also had a ****in undercard and was promoted like hell. Whoever said Canelo Lara outsold Cotto Martinez is also ******ed. Both fights underperformed but considering Cotto's opposition and coming off two losses he was still able to pull ahead of Canelo by a margin. This happening right after 3 back to back monthly ppvs featuring Manny, Canelo and lastly Floyd before the Martinez fight. Of course viewership was going to be down, peoples wallets were dried out after shelling out damn near 200 bucks beforehand.
