By By Hector Gonzalez: Canelo Alvarez dropped out of the Mayweather vs Guerrero card after Mayweather refused to sign an agreement that Mayweather and Alvarez would fight in September during Mexican Independence day if it is that both fighters are to win their designated matches on Cinco de Mayo.
Canelo than drops out of the card and reschedules his bout with Austin Trout to April 20th stating that he is not going to he help Mayweather sell PPV sales if Mayweather is not helping him. All I could say is good for him. My support for Canelo Alvarez’s decision is not necessarily based on skill or accomplishments in the ring, but more importantly, it’s based on consumer power and in the case of Canelo Alvarez and the Mexican boxing community they have much clout. Enough so that Canelo and other Mexican fighters should be dictating more of their terms.

By Chris Williams: Golden Boy Promotions matchmaker Robert Diaz is reporting that they are on the verge of announcing the May 4th fight card headlined by Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, and WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez vs. WBA World junior middleweight champion Austin Trout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Golden Boy offered Canelo other opponents besides Trout, but Canelo insisted on facing the tougher Trout.
