Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Mayweather-Canelo Plans in Near Future

If he dominates Mosley then why not. I dont think itll happen this year but if it does then im all for it. The kid is 21, a big boy, has a title, undefeated, has a huge following, and has skills no matter what haters say. Why not? Its a win win for him. If he loses, hes young and got great expiereance, if he wins then hes a superstar.

Martinez wants Chavez or Lee in Sept so hes out for fall. Berto and Ortiz fighting in June so winner is possiblitly, Khan and peterson fight in May which is also possibility. Pac is fighting JMM in Nov again if they both win according to Arum and he already said no to Floyd but no interest in that fight anymore. I personally think itll be a mismatch honestly.

Then who's he fighting in Late 2012/December??? He should just beat Cotto for the WBA title, making him the #1 SWW. If Canelo beats a Kirkland-Molina-Lara-Cotto in September, he'd most likely be the #2 SWW. If they fought in December, when Floyd has no one else to fight, it'd probably be for the Lineal Title. Floyd should just do that, there's no one else out there for December 2012 other then Canelo.

I could see Floyd fighting Berto next. I mean if Berto wins by devistating knockout which I think he will. What do you think about Floyd/Berto happening in Dec?

But who is Floyd going to fight in December???

I have no idea. Maybe he won't fight. Floyd has no problem taking a year off.

I'd be alright with that. It's a B/B+ fight if he beats Ortiz convincingly. I just don't know if he will. It'd be a solid WW with wins over Collazo, Hernandez, Zaveck, and Ortiz, a good fight. I just don't know if he'll beat Ortiz.

I kinda think Ortiz may beat him, and we'll see Khan-Ortiz in November or December.

Floyd HAS TO stay active, or he'll start to fade. If he stays active, he can fight well for another 2 years I think. If he doesn't, he could end up like how Leonard ended up against Norris.

I know you not talking to me but i would love to see this fight. I think Berto is good, has pop, and can match speed at this age for Floyd.

Berto gets the label hype job alot but on this site who doesnt besides you know who

It would easily make Berto the next best WW after Floyd and Manny, wouldn't mind seeing him fight Floyd or Manny if he beats Ortiz in June.

Hype-Job is such an over used term. Berto did beat Collazo when he was a Top 10 WW, had a big KO win over Hernandez, and stopped Zaveck who is also a Top 10 WW. It'd be a very good win of he beats Ortiz in the rematch. A lot of people seem to forget that had Berto beaten Ortiz, he would have foguht Floyd in September.

Floyd is in a ctach 22. There are really only 2 viable opponents, Manny, who keeps hiding behind Bob, and Sergio, at 154. After that where does he go? I guess Canelo in December is the most profitable.

I thought Alvarez had a contract to fight Mayweather next. What happened with that?

duckweather is ducking canelo!

[jbpanama]

Maybe FRAUD will give Canelo, the same "Deal" he gave Ortiz, get the KO,
and the Cinnamon Man, can Smile all the way to the bank Like Ortiz!!!
