Floyd said he would fight him if he can make 150 NOT 154.... yea strange right??

If Sergio says he'd fight Cotto at 154 there shouldn't be a oroblem:obama

And Sergio has said that he doesn't have a problem going down to 150 if it means a fight against Mayweather.

This is professional boxing... Boxers fight much lower than their natural weight all the time WILLINGLY.. If he says he can fight Cotto at 154 he should be able to fight Canelo no problem... That's The fight I want to see, because we know him and Floyd ain't happening

I'd rather see Canelo/Cotto first in spring 2013...

Martinez can fight Geale/GGG/Pirog/N'Kam-Kid Chocolate winner...

Alvarez should focus on fighting 154 fighters (has he fought any yet?) before considering the middleweight champion of the world...

Exactly, Canelo got to put his work in vs Kirkland, Cotto K9 etc. Instead of old Mosley & Rhodes and blown up 147ers in Hatton and Lopez.

my theory is that there is going to be a bidding war to get cotto between arum, golden boy, and dibella

and if its his choice, cotto probably fights martinez

I agree about the Catchweights. I don't even want that for Martinez/Cotto if it's the case.
I think hes on a fight to fight thing.

:why: if hes gone back to Uncle Bob
Yea, Golden Boy is helping promote his tune-up fight in December at MSG. I guess he's doing what Mayweather does: Use his own promo company & the help of Golden Boy. I doubt he fukks with an Arum fighter moving forward tho, right?

Since he's working with Golden Boy for this fight, could it lead to working with Golden Boy for a Canelo fight in May/June? :gladbron:

Hope so.

The plan is for Canelo to come back in December and if they both win their fights it's rumored to be Canelo/Cotto for May 6th.

He was supposedly ringside at the Canelo fight but Showtime didn't show him surprisingly.

he won't be fighting any of those dudes.
Martinez is too old to be wasting his time on fights that won't generate big money for him and right now his best options to get paid decent scratch are Cotto, Mayweather, Canelo, Chavez again, and Manny.

...question now is who should be his December opponent...

-K9/Berto sounds locked up, haven't heard anything official
-Trout taken of course
-Lara/Vanes fight in Nov.
-Gabriel Rosado fights this Friday
-Carlos Molina's not busy, but he is a KNOWN spoiler/upset-artist
-James Kirkland, legal problems not withstanding

Pick :shaq:

This is the same guy who fought Macklin, Darren Barker, and Dzin consecutively right?

He's 37, but shyt it's not like he's been boxing all his life or has accumulated a lot of damage, why you tryna cash him out so quick?

-Geale holds 2 belts
-GGG just looked INCREDIBLE in his HBO debut
-Kid-Chocolate (whom I'm assuming wins here) has been showcased plenty of times on US tv, retired Winky too
-Pirog has been off US tv for a minute, but we still remember him ruining rising star Danny Jacobs in embarrassing fashion

Why drain him to 154 when both divisions have sorting out to do...

It should be Molina but i think Quintana is a good possibility.
