By Dan Ambrose: WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) says he only has two weeks to decide on who’s going to be his next opponent on September 14th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Canelo, 22, doesn’t think Floyd Mayweather Jr. or Miguel Cotto will choose to fight him next. He also recognizes that a fight against WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez isn’t possible after Martinez broke his left hand and injured his knee in his win over Martin Murray last April.
by Bob Smith: Of all of the fighters currently trying to move their way up the ranks and to obtain championships and big paydays (no particular order) two strike me as the most overrated: Tyson Fury and Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. 
By Dan Ambrose: ESPN boxing analyst Teddy Atlas says he’s hearing that Miguel Cotto (37-4, 30 KO’s) will be the one that ends up facing WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) rather than Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26 KO’s) for Canelo’s next fight on September 14th in Las Vegas, Nevada.
By Dan Ambrose: Showtime head of Sports Stephen Espinosa is optimistic that a mega pay per fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez can get made for September 14th on Showtime/CBS on the Mexican Independence Day holiday. Both Mayweather and Canelo are interested in the fight, so all that needs to take place in the negotiations for money, weight. 
By Dan Ambrose: WBC president Jose Sulaiman wants WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) to wait until next year before he faces unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26 KO’s) in a mega fight. Sulaiman, who is really fond of the orange-haired Mexican fighter, doesn’t think he’s ready to beat the 36-year-old Mayweather right now, but if he waits until Mayweather is 37, Sulaiman thinks he’ll have a better chance at beating him. 
By Dan Ambrose: Trainer Robert Garcia doesn’t see any point in Floyd Mayweather Jr. fighting the much heavier WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez at 154 because he sees that as being too much of an advantage for Canelo because he’s so much heavier than Mayweather and stronger than him. 
By Dan Ambrose: If Golden Boy Promotions wants Miguel Cotto (37-4, 30 KO’s) to step in and fight WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) on September 14th then they’re going to have to give Cotto a nice payday. 
By Dan Ambrose: Golden Boy Promotions is looking to have former three division world champion Miguel Cotto (37-4, 30 KO’s) ready to go on September 14th to face their highly hyped fighter WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) if Floyd Mayweather Jr. fails to agree to face Canelo on that date. 
By Dan Ambrose: Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer says he’s going to be starting the wheels in motion this week for a September 14th fight between his fighter WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) and Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26 KO’s), even though Mayweather hasn’t asked him too. Schaefer wants the fight for Canelo and Golden Boy. 
By Dan Ambrose: It’s pretty clear that Showtime would love for WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26 KO’s) to fight the heavier WBA/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alavarez (42-0-1, 30 KO’s) in his next fight on September 14th on pay per view.
