Mayweather - Cotto 2, December 1st, MGM Grand

[Violent Demise]

It will be like the first fight with a similar outcome, it's just a money making rematch. I think Cotto should go after Canelo or Trout, somebody of that calibre and rebuild his name and maybe rematch Floyd down the line. I don't see the point in an
Immediate rematch, it was pretty clear Floyd won so why does he needs to prove it again in his next fight? Weird...

Warrior Cotto is dead. It's Money Miguel now. Cotto no longer cares rather he wins or loses. It's only about the money for him now. The old warrior Cotto would of never coward out of a fight against Saul Alvarez like Money Miguel did. Sad.

yea cause beating up Cotto's leftovers should have earned Alvarez a shot against him? lol VD you're always so full of shit bro, let Canelo fight someone who ISN'T SHOT beyond shit, Canelo "I love leftovers" Alvarez has yet to face a top 5 guy, cause sorry Cintron and Mosley don't count , let him fight Lara, Trout, Molina, or even Martirosyan, all of them are a step up to the crap he's been fighting

Ha! Cotto is coming off a clear cut loss and doesn't even hold a title. Yet now muthafukkas need to "earn" a shot to face him? Get the fuck on with that bullshit. That's some of the dumbest shit I ever read.
Fighters now must "earn" there shot to face a fighter coming off a loss. Fucking hilarious

he lost to the man who is considered P4P #1 in the world, he didn't go ahead and fight a washed up fighter who hadn't won in over 2 yrs, Canelo needs Cotto not vice versa, that's why the ginger is the one who has to EARN the shot, either way the only Cotto that the ginger will hold a W against is Jose Miguel, and even in that fight he was almost sparked

Yet again you show your ignorance and how little you really know about the sport. Alvarez is about to headline his first PPV as the A player. With or without Money Miguel. He already has his established fan base and is considered a cash cow. He don't need Cotto. He wants Cotto. But Cotto don't want him. Cuz he knows the beating that awaits him. You can spit all the little gay excuses you want. But bottom line is this. Alvarez-Cotto would be big and make a lot of money. And it's clearly more interesting than Mayweather-Cotto 2

I agree with VD that Cotto-Alvarez is more appealing than Mayweather-Cotto 2, but as for Cotto being washed up and a schooling awaits him in an Alvarez fight, I have to disagree. I think Cotto would beat Alvarez going off his last performance against Floyd. By no means is Cotto washed up and he is still the 2nd best fighter at 154. Hes a lot more experienced than Canelo, and I just think he is better.

This rematch with Mayweather hasnt been agreed yet though, and I think Cotto should look at his options for December, I would love him to fight Alvarez. Cotto needs to stay well clear of Mayweather unless who is really just looking for the money. We will see, I think he has the potential to beat anybody at 154 other than Floyd, so he should be going for the Trouts, Canelos etc as I was saying before. I believe we still have a lot more to see in Cotto and hes not over yet, your stupid if you believe that he is.

beating? lol Canelo looked flat against a small shot Shane Mosley, you go on burning other fighters for just beating up nobodies and shot over the hill fighters yet as always you're here just throwing roses at Canelo lol fucking hypocrite, as I said, the only Cotto that Alvarez would ever hold a W against is Jose, Miguel Cotto stomps the ginger easier than he beat the cheating fuck lol

You wanna see a hypocrite? Look in the fucking mirror. That fag staring back at you is the hypocrite. I told you before your not a boxing fan. Your a Cotto fan. You pretend otherwise but it's pitiful how transparent you really are. Your quick to bad mouth Alvarez when he fought Kermit Cintron and Shane Mosley. Saying there shot and he should be fighting better fighters. Yet when Alvarez expresses a desire to face the best fighters around his weight (Mayweather and Cotto) you come up with moronic shit that he has to "earn" his shot. Stupid shit just for the sake of hating

Actually, Schaeffer said that the fight won't be PPV if they don't get a big enough name as an opponent (e.g., a Cotto). Because Alvarez is not big enough to sell a PPV on his own. It will be on regular HBO, Showtime or potentially CBS (which would be awesome). Nobody's paying money for Canelo/Bundrage, man. At this point, Cotto is definitely still a bigger name than Alvarez. Cotto-Alvarez would be the best fight at 154 though. Too bad no one's even talking about making it. We'll get crap instead -- though it's not Canelo's fault all 3 of the better opponents have pulled out.

I'll be happily surprised if they make Alvarez/Martirosyan. More likely we'll get a garbage fight with Bundrage or Trout.

And I don't think there's anything to this supposed 12/1 rematch.

With the 3 pullouts, Cotto is pretty much the only big name around that can make it a big PPV. But he don't wanna fight. So pulling it off PPV would be the smart idea. Especially if Chavez-Martinez does indeed happen.

There is no way Alvarez-Martirosyan happens. Cuz every time it's time for Martirosyan to fight some one with a pulse he pulls out. Bundrage is set to fight Spinks. That's set. So it won 't be him. Trout would indeed be a garbage fight

[Rantcatrat]

As much as the first Mayweather versus Cotto fight was a good fight, the outcome was predictable, and the second fight will be even more so. taking into consideration that Cotto has reached a point in his career that he is strictly fighting big money fights, Cotto versus Canelo is the fight that should happen on 12/1. It has Puerto Rico versus Mexico drama. It's a great fight. Of course, Martinez is the real fight for Cotto, but Cotto ducked him before, and he'll do it again.

[Nameless]

For the moment, it seems more like some kind of rumors rather than anything else. The only thing we know? It's Cotto's return. Floyd's one of the many names thrown in the hat at this point.

[jon09]

I can't see Mayweather being ready by then for any fight. And it really means nothing if Mayweather beats him again anyways. The way Mayweather picks his opponents I just can't see it being made. Cotto should go after the winner of Bundrage vs Spinks and maybe that will entice Floyd for an early 2013 fight. And end the year with a unification match with Canelo in the fall.

[Master]

I do not see the sense in a rematch other than it made a lot of money. Just because it made a lot of money the first time does not mean it will the second time and just because it will be fought on the Eastside does not mean it will be closer. This is a silly return and cries of greed. Both men should move on to other challenges. This is ridiculous rematch. Cotto is a one armed boxer who relies on his conditioning and boxing skills to beat these bigger fighters. So it will be more interesting if he fight Saul and other champions in the division.

I agree with this but I don't see any other interesting options for Floyd in 2012. Martinez would be the absolute best fight to make but it's undoable with him fighting Junior in September. And obviously a Pac fight isn't happening now. Really no other interesting opponent. Alvarez is way too green for him, as GBP admits. And Floyd would get shit on for fighting someone like Khan.
