Floyd Mayweather should fight on 4th of July 2015 it lands on a Saturday

[12TRIBEsRiSe]

The imagery of your words and the truth you speak man.. It's too real. Nobody cares what the A-side in the Canelo-Cotto fight has to say. Cotto has been quiet this whole time, not saying a peep. When did the B-side(Pacquiao, Canelo) started bossing around and making demands to the A-side(Cotto, Mayweather)? This is the first time in history where the B side makes ultimatums and demands to the A-side. That's total bs from a historical and logical point of view.

great post!!!!!!!!!

It really isn't an issue. DLH and Canelo both agreed that if Mayweather/Pacquiao gets made for May 2nd then Canelo would concede the date to Floyd.

However he won't concede the date for a Mayweather/Khan fight. Nothing really complicated about it. People just like to argue anything Floyd/Pacquiao related.

bob arum is the issue, pac and floyd have always been ready to fight IMO

It'll Sell but it wouldn't top off as much as it would in May.

Who is trying to stay inside watching boxing at 10:30-11:00 on the 4th when you could be doing any number of thing's outside on a Saturday summer night?

These cats don't get it yet. Floyd is never dictated to. He moves when he wants to move. If it's May 2nd then team Pac must oblige.

This boy should be happy he even gets 40million, the boy still got Marquez problems.

in the history of the sport the A side has always dictated the venue... bob arum does this everytime hes the Aside he even pays promoters off to step away, makes fighters sign to his team, sets up the date and place of the fight, etc,

never in the history of the sport has the Bside dictated when the fight would be. how anyone could side with this Arum character is beyond me

That would be OK but he been fighting May and September this long, that is not going to change for a guy that is not even a Draw Yet in Boxing and who PPV Events both Turned up AVERAGE NUMBERS!

Canelo can WAIT! If he wanted those dates bad enough...ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS BEAT MAYWEATHER, WHICH HE COULDN'T DO!

It's not complicated so why are you trying to make it an issue. Floyd has been on Cinco de Mayo for years now. Canelo had his chance and lost so why does he get to just take it over? It can't be because he beat Floyd, because he didn't. Do you think Canelo is a bigger draw than Floyd, is that why he gets that date? Or is it just because he's Mexican?

If he gets that date just because he's Mexican, why does he need Cotto's drawing power to bump Floyd? Canelo is the bigger draw than Cotto according to you, so he should be able to bump Floyd with just about anyone shouldn't he?

The fact is as simple as this. Your boy had a chance to take that May date over, he got absolutely embarrassed in the ring. His diva attitude can't comes to grip with the fact that he lost and that ruined getting that "day" for him. Canelo is fine fighting on Floyds undercard the rest of his career as long as he fights in May, it seems to be all he cares about.

This a good example of the many morons on this site they don't get it. It's about making the most money on the most profitable day. Who cares how many times floyd fought on that day or what cotto ppv is compared to Canelo it doesn't matter. Why would a man step a side for another man so he can make money and the other man lose money? People not see how ******ed that is? Really boggles the mind the amount of morons on this site.

It's simple, but you just don't seem to get it.

Again, if May/Pac gets done for May 2nd, Canelo is willing to concede the date.
However if that fight doesn't get made, then he's willing to challenge Mayweather and Showtime for the date.

Nothing to do with pride or anything else, it's about money. The date generates money. Hence the reason Mayweather likes to fight on these dates, he knows it's the time a lot of people tune in to boxing. Canelo doesn't want it because he's Mexican, he wants it because it will give him the best chance to make $$$$$

Everyone seems to be able to understand it but you. You just hate Canelo, and it's obvious from your first post.

but somehow a black american with no ties to mexico has to have a mexican holiday.
