BOB ARUM HOPES COTTO-CANELO WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE BIGGEST STAGE POSSIBLE Top Rank Boxing CEO Bob Arum is very confident that the heavily discussed, HBO Pay-Per-View televised mega fight that would pit Lineal Ring Magazine/WBC Middleweight Champion of the World, Miguel Cotto 39-4 (32 KOs) against former Lineal Ring Magazine/WBC/WBA Regular Super Welterweight Champion of the World, Saul Canelo Alvarez 44-1-1 (31 KOs) will take place on May 2, 2015. Arum believes the second biggest fight that can be made in the sport at the moment will take place at AT&T Stadium aka Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX. For a fight the magnitude of Miguel Cotto versus Canelo Alvarez, which would also renew the storied & heated Mexico-Puerto Rico Boxing rivalry, Arum feels the state-of-the-art, 100,000+ seat venue located in North Texas is the right place to host this event that fans & the media are craving for several reasons. Arum believes a crowd of 50,000 will take in the Cotto-Canelo showdown LIVE. According to Arum, nothing is definite yet, but I think the negotiations with all of the parties are on track.
