Canelo Alvarez Signs Multi-Fight Deal with HBO / Clottey on Dec 6th

[California Burrito]

this is great for boxing oscar is rebuilding the boxing bridges burned by richard & haymon this means the canelo/cotto fight is in play for may and floyd is assed out

 

[THE MACHINE]

Should make a great undercard for Mayweather v Pac

 

[MIAlien]

This is huge news. It definitely means Canelo/Cotto is set in stone for May. It also opens the door for Canelo/GGG and/or Canelo/JCC Jr. Canelo could add serious legacy points in the next year and a half. Or he could become another #GoodBoy.

canelo could seriously do wonders for his legacy if he runs through the expected gauntlet with clear concise wins...if only my nikka the punisher was still around to be a part of this

Not only P.Will, but Maravilla now that he's . Those are my feared, undersized MW beasts.

And Andre Ward has to feel like the unluckiest boxer ever. #2 P4P and one weight class up from all the big payday, legacy enhancing, PPV potential fights.

 

[George's Dilemma]

Can't help but wonder how Showtime/Mayweather will respond to this one. Arum and GB played Chess with this one, and it was good move, at least temporarily. It's certain Mayweather and Pac isn't happening in May now. People talking about that's the only way Mayweather can equalize Canelo fighting on that same weekend. However Arum isn't going to allow Pac to fight on that same weekend. Mayweather is azzed out on this one. He could go to the UK and fight Khan or Brook. Considering the hour difference, that fight would be on in the afternoon here in North America, but I don't envision it doing big numbers.

On another note, De La Hoya just exposed his own skirt and how bad Richard and his own drug problem have isolated GB. They're running back to Arum like an ungrateful bedwench who finally saw the error of her ways. Arum notoriously holds grudges and this plays right into his ego. Meanwhile Haymon in the past few days has signed at least three fighters, two from Europe. 2015 gonna be interesting.

Al Haymon completely owning Espinoza was what sent Oscar back to HBO. There was no way he was going to keep all his eggs in the Showtime basket where he would be dealing with dudes who don't have his company's best interest in mind.
And remember this is just Canelo signing with HBO. GBP isn't HBO exclusive. Oscar just out there diversifying.

#CaneloCartel wins again


Floyd?

Mayweather/Pacquiao isn't happening. It is time people let it go.
Arum isn't sweating making matches for Pacquiao anymore like Showtime has been all for every Floyd fight since they signed that contract with him.
Two fights with Bum Ass Timothy Bradley™ and now the new revenue stream of having fights in China proves it. Bob sitting back like when it comes to making this Floyd/Pac fight. He will be perfectly willing to match Pac up with whatever new Top Rank guy he wants to build up all the way till Pac retires.

 

[unseen]

mayweather is definitely gonna lose here if he keeps fighting bums

i could care less if it happens but I'm pretty sure everybody involved is like when it comes to may/pac. its still a big money fight. if that wasn't the case, they would just come out and say the fight will never happen.

I'm American breh, and I'm going off of the Froch/Groves fight which was a huge success. I came home at like 1:30pm and forgot about that fight, just happened to be flipping channels and came across it. Granted there were other reasons why that fight sold so much, those in the know, know what I mean . Still, they sold around 900,000 PPVs, with a gate at 80,000. Other than Pac, who else can Floyd fight and draw interest? Khan is likely going to be next, and in the UK.

I can't remember, but the Hatton figh, what time was it over here?
