I'm still confused on how Cotto, the one willing to go on the road on a date better suited for Canelo, is being called and diva and the red haired fairy isn't.
"It's always the financial side. There was no agreement on that," he said. "I don't know what would have happened if we had more time. If Oscar doesn't have more time, he doesn't have more time. It's a great fight, but Miguel doesn't need it for his career. So if it doesn't happen, so be it. He's OK. No problem. If Oscar needs to move he needs to move. We're not going to go back to them. We'll huddle and meet Miguel on Tuesday, and we will start planning."
Cotto didn't want it.
"Gaby Penagaricano on Cotto being the A-side and deserving the lion's share of the purses:
Obviously, and Canelo and Oscar's side, they recognize that but that's not the problem. But the question is, How much of the lion's share? that one guy should get and what the other should get. So that's it.
On the venue, given Cotto almost traditionally fights in New York in June:
"I would say that there is no leading candidate. I think that Las Vegas, Texas and New York ; the three of them are the leading candidates. I would not discard any of them as far as being one of the possible venues yet."
FACTS DOEEEEEEEEEEEE

Try again Eater_of_ass
Cotto doesn't care about cinco de mayo weekend and he wasn't going to compete in a head to head ppv with floyd because that would not maximize his earnings yes or no?

thats exactly what im talking about... you are talking out of your ass.
You say there's no point cuz since you talk out your ass constantly you must not know enough about the topic at hand.
Why has Cotto, an elite JMW, top 3 generator, chosen not to fight Canelo, a SOLID JMW rising star, arguably top 3/4 generator in the sport in what the fans and casuals alike expect to be one for the history books? That fight is only 2nd to May-pac and you know that.
Please explain why this fight hasn't happened. Seems like Cotto has not had any problems getting other matches done, even the ones he thought he'd win(trout) but just can't seem to get this fight to materialize for some reason.
Honestly, why hasn't Cotto-Canelo happened yet? I'm not even bickering anymore, just curious. Why?

Ill copy and past from another thread where I had to explain the exact same thing:
Cotto didn't fight in december against ANYBODY because he didn't have enough time to train with freddy roach. Then ODH & Canelo felt that they were going to compete with Floyd with that Cinco De Mayo ppv weekend by using Cotto as their little bargaining chip lets say. Cotto, not being the idiot that some other boxers are by letting themselves get used by a promoter (such as arum), gave the middle finger to BOTH Canelo & ODH. Do you guys honestly think that Cotto cares about Cinco De Mayo weekend? If he was going to fight at that time, why would he "compete" with Floyd as ODH has stated that they'll only move the date of the Cotto-Canelo fight if Floyd fights Pacquiao.... Ok UNDERSTAND. If Floyd fights pacquiao... And if Floyd didn't? Again, do you honestly think that Cotto cares about cinco de mayo weekend or to "compete" in a head to head ppv with floyd, where that situation would NOT maximize his earnings? Canelo got mad cuz he didn't get what he wanted, signed up kirkland and now is fighting kirkland at minute maid f^cking park.
KEY PARTS!!!--- Cotto doesnt care about cinco de mayo weekend. If he fought that weekend, it would be against floyd to try and take that 0. ODH & Canelo only would move the date if floyd-pac happened and if it didn't happen they would "compete" with floyd-??? in a head to head PPV. That WOULD NOT maximize EITHER of their money. Its a ****** business move, that ODH might do.

Essentially they both turned down each other, Cotto to face Sergio Martinez, lineal MW champion and become the first PR 4 division champ.
Canelo turned Cotto down to face a JMW who's had 2 fights in 3 years at MW. Also, this isn't a defense of Cotto it's just the actual scenario no BS or trolling.Last edited by Beater_of_ass; 03-27-2015, 03:10 PM.
