    Illiterate? Use the word in the right text, it's obvious you don't know the meaning

      I do like this because it really does back Floyd into a corner. But I don't think dates are as important to him if him, his people, or Haymon dont want to fight Manny. I think it would be hilarious and epic if Canelo were purposely bluffing to force Floyd to fight Manny.

      No way Showtime goes up against Cotto vs Canelo. Nobody really wins. Floyd against anybody not named Manny would only do 250,000 while Cotto-Canelo would get 500-750k.

      I think Oscar only backs off if Floyd fights Manny. And as much as I want to be hopeful. History proves the most likely scenario we get Canelo vs Cotto on the may date while Floyd fights Khan or Danny in April or late May/June.

          Why would anyone think Canelo would be the A Side in this fight… Cotto has fought on more ppv's, he is the true middleweight champ (beating Sergio), the day he normally fights on is in June (Puerto Rican Day Parade). Not to mention they are demanding 50/50 & locations of Vegas or Texas. Canelo has in his favor better numbers vs Floyd. That won't be enough to get Cotto to concede so many perks, not to mention the A side. Canelo will have to give up a lot for this fight to happen. Which also might mean saying bye to May 2nd.

            Canelo knows that Floyd doesn't want to face the risk with Pacquiao, so he knows, he can bully Floyd off those dates..simple as that...

            Floyd-Cotto at 154 isn't as interesting as people think... remember that fight the first time had Canelo-Mosley on the undercard...

            Floyd-Cotto at Middleweight is a much more interesting fight...

              LOL Floyd makes it impossible to negotiate the Pacquiao fight but you have them fighting twice lol?

              How about they just focus on making one fight first...

Again, but Floyd still wants those dates.
                Read my post again im not down playing the dates, i am explaining the myth if the Mexican fan base. 4th of July no one is home why hold a boxing fight on that day, did you think that through? Everybody wants those dates and who ever has the biggest fight should get them. Click the links from my original post and check out the demographics for boxing fans in 2011. That should give you a better understanding.

                  I will get a kick out of Floyd having to move off his date with another non-Pacquiao opponent his camp through the media will try to hype

                    If Canelo moves Floyd off that May 2 date, that would be the equivalent to Canelo beating Floyd in a rematch...

                      I remember Floyd being asked about losing the dates, can't remember whether it was video or in a written interview but he went off on one, and said they would never take those dates or something to that effect.

                      It's important to him because he sees himself as "the money", the biggest draw. It's wrapped up with his fragile ego.
