Comments Thread For: Cotto's Adviser: Mayweather Rematch is a Mega-Fight

"HBO is not interested in the fight because they view more like the fight Cotto had with Delvin Rodriguez," the source continued. "But they are willing to accept it if their conditions are met - that a fight with Canelo is signed. So they are going to try to make the fight."

And that was for facing HEILAND as I've been saying, not Geale.

I always love the comment of "you must be new to boxing" when someone disagrees. Anyways. The writing is on the wall. The way this has all unfolded Cotto/Floyd or CottoCanelo for the lineal belt is'nt happening unless GGG allows it. If that is even what Floyd wants to do. And if Canelo was somehow what the WBC wanted they could of manuvered long before now to make it look legit for Cotto to fight Canelo for the belt instead of spending the last year pushing GGG.

You have to be new to boxing to think that there is any credibility with the WBC. That's all I was pointing out. Even their rules allow them to do what they want at any time. The fee they would make on a Mayweater/Cotto fight absolutely obliterates what they would make with Cotto/GGG. We're talking at least 1 million buys more on PPV, money talks, that's boxing.

And Like I said you are the one who said you saw when Geale was announced that HBO dropped the insisting that he agree to fight Canelo next. So far nobody but you claims to have seen or read that. Geale and Heiland are the same caliber fighter. It's not like he dropped Heiland and is fighting some A list fighter instead. These guys are both C class fighters so why would HBO put in the clause for Heiland and not for Geale? That makes no sense and so far only you are claiming that to be the case.

I get what you are saying. Yes Mayweather did dominate Cotto on all three of their official judge's scorecards more decisively than he'd dominated Pacquiao on their official scorecards.

However the facts remain the same. The punches that did get through to Mayweather hurt him no matter how infrequently or inconsistently Miguel landed them; Especially the jabs. Mayweather was never as bloodied, busted up or absorbed as many punches in a single round of his career as he had in that Miguel Cotto bout.

Just go rewatch the sixth round of that fight and you will know exactly what Mayweather and I are talking about. Money had no answer for evading those telephone booth like jabs being thrown by Cotto; He was landing them almost at will. That was the main reason why he brought his father back to be his chief trainer because he thought he was getting hit too much in that bout.

Lastly, the word several is defined as more than two and since the fight occurred more than two years ago; Three to be exact. Then calling it several years ago is in the proper context for its usage.

Cotto hurt him once...he blooded his nose. Pac hurt him a few times...no blood. 2 years is a couple...3 is a few. 3 is not several by anyone's definition...you are stretching things.

The 160 belt won't happen unless GGG steps aside which does'nt seem likely to me.

I guarantee he would. Cause he's delusional enough to think floyd would give him a shot if he beats cotto lol

Gabriel Peñagarícano, the legal adviser to WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto, says a rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr. would be a mega-fight event.

Cotto and Mayweather collided in a junior middleweight unification in 2012, with Floyd winning a hard-fought decision over twelve rounds.

Cotto will return on June 6th in a world title defense against former champion Daniel Geale. Mayweather was back on Saturday night, where he won a decision over Manny Pacquiao. He wants to fight again in September. If Cotto wins in June, he may face Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in the fall (should Canelo beat James Kirkland on Saturday).

So, its come to this ......

Cotto got swept in the first fight, what makes anyone think the second fight won't be the same. Roach????

I guess we should prepare for another round of constant BS coming from Roach, that he has Floyd's number and this fight will end with a KO.

Man, I'm not getting into this with you because you're proof that he has to fight Canelo next is a condition for fighting Heiland. He was asked at a press conference and he said he can talk to Canelo about making a fight again, but he can also talk to Floyd too. I don't know what you're so pissed about, there was a hundred articles on this and I'm a "stan" or at least known as one around here. Geale was an opponent that didn't come with the Canelo condition because he is way more well known on HBO than Heiland, it's as simple as that.

Just stop and watch man - The scores were wide, Cotto gave Floyd all he could handle.

[JJRod]

It would be huge but doubt it happens.
