Good test for him, he can win against both fighter since they're already a spent force. Did he not call out Floyd? Floyd will be happy to dodge and duck Canelo's punch and get his check unscath.

Personally I think gbp should go after cotto since I've been hearing his contracts up with arum. He and Canelo will do huge numbers, he is beatable, and this is a much better match up than cotto chavez. Idk what arum was thinking the dude is a Damn near super middle weight on fight night and hes about 6 feet tall. Cotto is like 5"7
Plus arum is scum and cotto is fun to watch. I hate to see him getting pimped out Plus gbp could set him up with angulo Cintron kirkland or victor ortiz who should definitely think about moving up if a shot at Canelo or cotto appears. |

Canelo definitely called out Floyd. He said he wants Floyd in May. I don't know if the fight will materialize or not, but I wouldn't mind watchin' it. |

Absolutely right! In my opinion, Chavez is too damn big for Cotto and Canelo. Chavez as a Super Middleweight on fight night!? More like being closer to a cruiserweight (IMG:style_emoticons/default/no2.gif) Since Margarito may be Cotto's last fight under the TR banner, and if he doesn't decide to extend his contract, then Arum may find a way to fuck Cotto. I say this because I believe he's coming close to the end of his contract, but I dont think this is his last fight yet. |

I'm liking the idea of Cotto vs Canelo also, it's a better match up than JCC jr right now as far as size is concerned. idk if canelo is ready for a mega fight just yet, so fighting cotto will be a good test to see if he's even in the ball park.....

I agreed, until you said that Canelo's not ready for a megafight, and yes, a Cotto fight would be a good test. Dude sells out Mexican arenas between 10-12k seats and he sells crazy at the Staples Center. He's knocked out just about everybody thats been put infront of him in the lasy year and a half. Then, he's champ at 154. So no, he may not be quite ready for a megafight, but his credentials are screaming for one! Hell, this guy has fought 4 times this year alone, so he can do the same next year and confidently claim that he's ready for a mega fight. He could very well have a few tests next year be ready for a big payday...just by his volumes of fights in a 12-month timespan. Im not sure Arum would put Cotto out there like that just yet, and besides, we still have to see what Cotto does with Margarito with this weekend...or the other way around. |

I'd like to see a matchup between Canelo and either one of these fighters. Although I'd like to see him in there with JCC jr, this would be a good step up in competition for Canelo and I definitely think he gets pushed in a bout between himself and the Winner of the Cotto/Margarito fight
