If boxing was truly about the best having to fight the best like every other pro sport in the world, terms for a possible match up wouldn't be created and dictated by the fighters. They are the participants in the sporting event and should be subject to the same standards as everybody else in such a sporting event. Even though this, as boxing fans, is what we have come to expect and accept from world title bouts, it's still ludicrous that a fight would not go ahead because one boxer does not agree to the terms of another boxer. The governing boxing body should have full control over the parameters of the event which should be standardized for all competitors who are ranked by that governing body. If either of the boxers don't agree to the rules under which all other participants should have to abide by, they should be stripped of any rankings and/or titles they may be in possession of.
If boxing ever wants to be taken seriously and considered a legitimate sport by the rest of sporting world, it needs to lay out clear rules and regulations that are enforced in every fight without exception.
The choice of referee, gloves, judges, drug testing and any other essential elements of a professional bout should never be dictated by one of the athletes who are participating. If the parameters of any other legitimate sport were discovered to be augmented by one of the competitors of that sport, there would be strict and severe action taken against such an individual.
Regardless of who is truly responsible for the seemingly eternal delays and unsuccessful attempts to produce Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, this debacle is without a doubt, an embarrassment on the grandest scale, considering the negotiations have gone on this long and still there is no fight scheduled to occur. There are no excuses. This is a travesty of epic proportions and the greatest disservice to the world of boxing that has ever occurred.Comment

If mayweather fights cotto you better believe there will be a huge backlash from the fans and that fight won't even generate a million buys. And you also better believe arum and Oscar will make pacquiao canelo on may 2nd. They're not just going to bend over and take it, they could really screw Floyd over if they wanted and take the may date and his ppv crown. Who wants to see mayweather cotto 2? We already saw that and it wasn't a close fight. Cotto won maybe 3 or 4 rounds. Canelo cotto is a much more interesting fight and of course the entire planet including mayweathers own father wants to see mayweather pacquiao. That would be the ultimate duck move and I don't think moonves would go for it eitherComment
