LAS VEGAS — The grand plan for Canelo Alvarez is to win Saturday night, then set up his pay-per-view franchise on the same Mexican holiday weekends that Floyd Mayweather Jr. always made his millions.

The plan for Miguel Cotto isn't nearly as ambitious, though it could be almost as lucrative. After reinventing himself with famed trainer Freddie Roach, Cotto will be in the mix for even more big money fights should he upset Alvarez in their 155-pound fight.

Unlike Alvarez, Cotto will have to do it without a title after being stripped of his piece of the middleweight crown this week for refusing to pay a $300,000 sanctioning fee to the WBC.

A paper Champ no honor having ***** like Cotto--who hardly anyone respects anymore. Trying to sell a resurgence that happened against a weight drained afterthought and a one legged champ who had been off for 18 months.

Another Diva named Ward who can't go three months without finding a excuse not to fight.

And another guy who was just stripped of all his titles.

And a promoter, Jay-Z, who is seemingly horrible at doing their job.

Yea, that card sounds like a disaster, I mean exciting as hell.

I think this is a ****** way to market this fight. Coka is treating it like a niche fight for only Hispanics instead of an event for everyone.

No. World Cup is our Super Bowl cokehead.

I was looking at DLH's face last night at the weigh in, He looks concerned man, he looks really nervous. I dont know if he has confidence in Canelo beating Cotto. So he is trying to sell this fight as much as he can because he dont know when his next big event will be. If Canelo loosses his market value will drop considerably.
