    If May-Pac confirmed, couldn't Cotto-Canelo be undercard?

    I know you could make two PPV out of these fights and more money, but if Mayweather-Canelo had Garcia vs Matthysse in the undercard, then the Mayweather vs Pacquiao should be deserving of the Cotto vs Canelo. Both Mayweather and Canelo can get the dates that they want (Or Canelo's "I'm still 24 years old, I have plenty of time to headline as much Mexican dates in the future" ass can just be patient and wait til Mayweather retires.) And I guess it sucks from a business standpoint that it's going to be one PPV, but I remember them saying "Garcia vs Matthysse is a thank you to all our fans", well consider this one a sorry to all their fans for the headaches. And I'm sure Canelo and Cotto wants to headline their own PPV. If so, they should have both beaten Mayweather, but they didn't. So unfortunately for them, the date should be Mayweathers. I think that's the fairest way to resolve who gets what dates in this sport. But this way, they're both fighting on their date, we as fans get a proper apology, and this will save everyone headaches. And last but not least, it may not be 2 PPV worth of money, but it is still huge money right here. Everyone wins.

      There is literally zero chance of that happening.

      They would lose more money than having them fight separately, and all fighters would make less money. It's lose-lose for everybody involved.

        None of those four are ever fighting on an undercard again. Jesus, you'd probably have to charge $150 per ppv.

        Top four draws in boxing on the same event? Yes, I jizz just at the thought of it, but how the hell are they gonna pay for that?

          Why make 2 mega fights on 1 PPV when they can have 2 ppv and make way more money... Doesn't make sense financially..

                Would never happen, makes absolutely no sense from a business or economic standpoint at all.

                Also I still doubt May-Pac happens, if Floyd fights anyone outside of Pac and Cotto-Canelo were on the same date I think Cotto-Canelo would outsell Floyd. There aren't too many guys anymore at 147-154 that are good enough opponents for Floyd to go head to head with Cotto-Canelo.

                    No chance. It's not affordable.

                    If Mayweather/Pacquiao happens, it will have a terrible undercard because they won't have enough money left to pay for a good one.
