      cotto is the reason the fight isnt happening but its not because he is ducking alvarez, its because he is holding out for mayweather. mayweather is a tougher fight than canelo so its anything but a duck.
      Yeah, Mayweather MAY be the tougher fight, but Cotto can't win either fight. And he knows that, deep down. So it's understandable he would hold out for more $$$. I wouldn't be surprised if he retires after his next heart breaking loss.

        Bussiness! Cotto is trying to get the most money. He has no need to prove himself to NSB posters. Yes, I admit it sounds like a poor excuse but I can think of no other reason for his reluctance to sign the fight unless........he is actually scared of a less accomplished 23 year old, in which case.....he is ducking like "Leo Ducky Cruz"!!!!!!!!

            He declined 10 million in March for the fight. They offered him the fight again, on a big PPV night, and after months of negotiations where Canelo's team gave in to all Cotto's demands, Cotto still would not sign. Canelo had enough and moved on. Can't fight someone who doesn't want it.
            Obvious and deduced objective rationalities do not penetrate Miguel Toto fans. In their twisted, delusional experience that they call life, he who does not hold Cotto in high regards is Mexican and/or a hater. There is no other possibility.

            For those who label him a glorified journeyman, we hear ya. Keep fighting the good fight! Don't let delusional patriotic Miguel Toto fans bring you down. They didn't have fathers.

              why would cotto take a fight may 2nd if Floyd-Pac happens, Cotto stated in past he wants full attention of Freddy Roach and will not play 2nd fiddle to Pacman

              The boxing world is constintly waiting on Floyd the sooner they are out of the game the better

                The Pac/Floyd fight hasn't been settled and Canelo wanted to move foward.

                I don't think there is ducking by any part but more the inpatience in the Canelo side. But who is to blame him when he has been waiting for a while already when the Clottey fight got cancelled

                  I can agree with this ^^^. I don't think there was any ducking. Niether guy is afraid of the other. It's more the situation of $$ than anything.
