Canelo Reveals Terms Being Discussed For Cotto
Posted by: Miguel Rivera on 12/3/2014 .



By Miguel Rivera

Mexican superstar Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (44-1-1, 31KOs) discussed some of the details being negotiated for a potential showdown with WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto (39-4, 32KOs), on May 2nd in either Las Vegas or Arlington, Texas.

Some of the details being negotiated include the weight, the official beer sponsor, the venue and more.

"The [negotiations] are advanced, very advanced talks and hopefully in the next few weeks the fight will be done. I want that fight to be done before the end of the year and we are working hard on those negotiations," Canelo told RED FM 88.1 Radio in Mexico.

Canelo admits Cotto's side is "very difficult to negotiate with" - something that other fighters have complained about in the past.

One of the big obstacles is the official beer sponsor. Cotto recently signed a deal with Tecate and Canelo has a huge deal with rival Corona.

They are discussing the venue and the split. Canelo wants the fighting weight to fall at 155-pounds, which shouldn't really be a problem since Cotto weighed only 155 when he captured the WBC title from Sergio Martinez.

"I love Las Vegas, where most of those [Cinco De Mayo event] dates are held, but another venue could be [in Texas]. We are looking at several options. This fight has to be a 50-50 split. We are at a difficult stage in negotiations," Canelo said. "I want to stay at junior middleweight. If the fight with Cotto is done it will be for the middleweight championship, but it would be agreed upon for 155-pounds."

:wow:


How is cotto side difficult to work with, if canelo making all the demands:dwillhuh:

Dude wants everything in his favor:dwillhuh:

Breh, that's not what you were saying just less than 2 weeks ago:youngsabo:


When we were all discussing the 65/35 split in Floyd's favor because of their recent numbers (last 3-5 fights), you disagreed about last 3-5 fights being recent history:sas1:

You said:

http://www.thecoli.com/posts/10963478/



Just taking their last fights, Floyd vs Maidana did 925k and Pacquiao vs Algieri did 300k. That's a total of 1.25 mill.....and would make it an acceptable 74/26 split in Floyd's favor then right?:sas2:


:whoa:, I mean....I'm only going by the logic you were trying to force on us here:mjpls:


:smugbiden:
I did say that.. I also said this(what you've conveniently skipped over

Nah breh :ufdup: we're going off both their last fights, which were both on ppv in Vegas.. CURRENTLY they're close in drawing power. And when you consider Maidana should be a much bigger draw than Bradley it makes you think :patrice: 65/35 is unacceptable right now :manny:



Nobody cares about floyd being undefeated or who has been champion longer. Or his ppv numbers 8 years ago when he wasn't even A side. how many times did Floyd have to get his straps back again after toss them in the bushes multiple times?? We can go down this route if you want.

RIGHT NOW.. fighting in Vegas on ppv they're around the same with Floyd being slightly higher looking at the numbers.. Like I told dumbass above you, 35% is unacceptable at this point in Pac career. . We want that backend, Floydie wont budge.. even after being offered $50 to $100 million :ld:

I was referring to NOTABLE RANKED OPPONENTS. in the USA (vegas) they're close in drawing power. The split should go by that..

nikkas buy Floyd ppv because they wanna see him lose. It only partly has to do with Floyds draw.. nikkas badley wanted to see Canelo and Maidana whoop Floyds ass just like.. Just like 4x that amount of nikkas want to see Pac whoop Floyds ass...

Nobody cared about Algieri or knew who he was outside of boxing heads.

If Floyd fought Algeiri over their, he would've done around the same numbers

So if Pacquiao would've fought Algieri in Vegas, the PPV buys would've been higher?:dahell:


I have NEVER heard that before in my life....that the city you fight in has any impact on the amount of PPVs bought:dead:


@Black_Jesus just gave us a glimpse into his 2015 Stan Bag brehs, he's coming up with brand new excuses for 2015 already:heh:

Im sure you've never heard this so let me school you for a sec.

Pac fighting in China has impact on how they promote the fight.. It wasn't a major promotion for the fight in the US.. They didn't sale the fights in movie theatres. There was no nation wide promotional tour for the fight. Cant do that when you're in China. We dont even know how much revenue they got over there in Asia ppv market..

If Pac was fighting Algieri in Vegas and they did a nationwide tour with heavy promotion YES the fight would've done more ppvs of it was in Vegas
