Baby

Cotto now champ resurrected career is taking a page out of floyds playbook be a pri$k during negotiations get all your demands met then drag your ass making Canelo wait for no reason except mind games preventing Canelo from taking a fight somewhere else waiting on a reply I'm glad once demands met they had hump or jump date

cotto either rematches trout,fights Lara or quillin in june. madison square garden style.

Ok just saw the video of Oscar.
Man I still have hopes this fight gets made. At the end of that Oscar video there they asked him if Cotto came back and agreed if they'd take the fight and Oscar didnt' really answer there.

I have a feeling if Cotto comes back to the table in a few days, Canelo vs Cotto can still be made.

Or maybe I'm just wanting to stay optimistic.

It's seriously sad when we never get the damn fights we want.

The way Oscar talks about Canelo make him sound a spoiled brat.

So what's wrong with waiting until May/Pac gets figured out? That's all Cotto is doing, like you say what if they do fight, what's the point of signing a contract for May 2nd then? You would either be forced to go up against it or have to go through negotiations all over again for the new date. The fight would also move your training camp out 4 weeks, what if they start camp AND THEN Floyd/Pac somehow gets done? That's just dumb thinking, again just wait until it's figured out and that's all Cotto is doing. Canelo is the one who got scared and pulled out not the other way around.

fair enough. i guess im just pissed the fights off

Canelo has fought at Middleweight in his last two fights... 155 is Middleweight.. So Canelo has been at Middleweight for a year now... Why doesn't he just fight Triple G on May 2...

Triple G v. Canelo could definitely hold its own against Floyd-Cotto 2 or Floyd-Khan...

I'd be more interested in Floyd-Cotto 2 but that's just me... but a lot people wouldn't want to see that rematch.. and nobody outside of the Showtime Commentators booth and the U.K. wants to see Floyd-Khan...

Shame on Oscar,he should know better by now!!!!

[Beater_of_ass]

Canelo fans are all out crazy. Oscar went crawling back to Bob Arum after Floyd and company nearly ruined his company. Oscar also had his golden boy project decimated by Floyd as well as personally giving Floyd a boxing lesson as well. The entire time Floyd was talking **** and you guys think Oscar doesn't have some vendetta to take away his "Mexican date?"

It's so obvious was DLH was trying to do and that's sabotage Mayweather and nothing more. Too bad Cotto only wants to beat Floyd in the ring and that's about as far as his vendetta goes. Why should he lose money going up against Floyd because Oscar, Canelo and Bob Arum all have beef with him?

[Beater_of_ass]

Because Cotto was getting called out like a little ***** diva he is.

Diva or not the fight was made and Martinez got beat down, are you still upset about that?

That wouldn't be a bad idea. Canelo vs GGG in May.
However GGG has a fight in February I believe and I'd think Canelo would be weary of making a deal with a guy who still has a fight to do before his. He might get cursed the way Ortiz did and end up fighting another Josesito Lopez.
