By the end of the year, Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya is going to focus his efforts on making a highly demanded fight between Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and Miguel Cotto.

Canelo returns to HBO in December, likely against former welterweight champion Joshua Clottey. If he is successful, De La Hoya will sit down with the necessary parties to discuss the possibility of Canelo facing Cotto for the WBC middleweight crown on Cinco De Mayo weekend.

"The focus will be on May 2. The whole world is talking about Canelo with Cotto, but we would have to talk about that after December," Oscar said.

Saul himself said he was ready to face Cotto, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Manny Pacquiao.

"Those are fights might happen. It is now more likely to make those fights [because I'm back with HBO]. I'm ready for anyone," Canelo said.
