Then Google it, for a fighter with nothing official all you're going to find on a Boxing forum is speculation.

The rematch with Miguel Cotto, naturally.

The first bout did more than 900,000 PPVs.

The return bout, to be held during the lucrative Mexican Independence Day weekend, will easily top 1 million.

It's the only realistic fight for September.

Other than your projection on the buys, you might have the winner. More like 600k, that fight sucked and Canelo will take a hit for not fighting GGG.

If Canelo doesn't fight GGG next he has little choice other than to return to 154. Ducking GGG and continuing at 155 would just make him look a fool.

Correction: look like a coward. If he keeps dragging little guys to 155 or dehydrate MWs, he will still look like a coward. The only choices which would partially remedy the damage would be SWW title fights.

I try and avoid the word coward when referring to professional boxers. Because if they were cowards they would never have gotten in the ring in the first place. Canelo has fought some top notch opponents so he is by no means a coward. But it is hard to come to any other conclusion than he is ducking GGG.

I can see that date being used for Mayweather-Garcia.
