Alvarez vs BerNALGAS

But 160 is too much, he said. 168 is my limit, he said. 175 after winning a title is too much, he said. I want to rematch Bivol at 175 he said last Saturday I don't think he'll win....

I too believe he should stick to 168. I don't see Canelo hurting or beating Bivol, too small and too old now in my opinion. Fighting Bud and Benavidez would definitely be wild and generate lots of attention to the sport of Boxing in my opinion.

I tend to agree i still think it happens because there is to much money for it not to happen, Nelo is just milking it at this point but then i thought the same with Wilder vs Joshua ****** potential of money to be made yet Greed ensured it never happened. Im hoping we get either Crawford or Benavidez for 2025 both would be wild i prefer Nelo to just swallow his pride and know 168 is his limit for a world title fight, Bivol rematch will be boring and similiar to the first fight unless Nelo was significantly hampered which he wasnt.

I'm of the opinion that a fighter is worth the amount of money they can receive. If it is true that Ginger was able to generate 650k PPV buys against Berlanga, I can't fault him for THINKING he should receive at least 100 million to fight Bud or Benavidez. The reality of it is that Promoters and Networks are gonna wanna keep doing business with him. Like him or not, he's in a position to not need to be taking selfies with Turki to make $-hit loads of money... Another reality is that we might not get to see him fight Benavidez nor Bud and yet he'll still make large amounts of money and he'll still keep his loyal fans happy.. Oh well, there's still plenty of good fights ahead that don't involve Ginger and I'll certainly enjoy watching them.

I really dont have a issue with Nelo asking for that amount its one of the biggest fights in boxing today why not ask for that amount??

I'm surprised it did so well...... While some folks thought it would bomb and do under 250k I surely thought it would do much worse than what is being reported. If the event had flopped, Ginger would have been forced to pick a big name as his next rival. The amount of money this fight generated will only convince Ginger that his notion of him being the shot caller is accurate. Sucks for the fans that want to see him fight Benavidez or even Bud. I find it hard to believe that Turki will offer Ginger over 100 million to fight Bud or over 150 million to fight Benavidez.

BerNalgas has been getting a lot of praised for going 12 rounds against canelo. I don’t get it. Such a lopsided fight. Berlanga will be another overhyped PR fighter. I don't know man, he's young still. If his body will allow him to stick around for a couple of years at 168, he'll have a few good fight coming his way. He might find some relative success within 2 years at 168 in my opinion.

turki said he was going to eat him but its canelo who will be ordering dessert

I thought it was going to flop, those are decent numbers for Canelo vs an unknown fighter.

Since theres a lot of fanboys in here who care for somebody else's money.... Readung reports the fight did 17 mill gate and 650k ppv buys..... Not bad, but do you think Amazon/DAZN expected more? Also reading ufc did 850k + Unsure if I believe either ppv number especially the UFCs.

Completely forgot to mention the Plant fight. That was the highlight fight of the event for me. While I don't think Plant being on the card made much a difference, the fight itself was the most memorable fight of the night. Looking forward to seeing Plant back in action.

There's too many parties going on during Diez y Seis for it to do such low numbers. You have to expect at least 300k just off Gingers popularity amongst Mexicanos/Chicanos

I think those a great numbers considering the card. With the exception of Danny Garcia, nobody knew much of the rest of the opponents. Lara is hit and miss with fight fans. He's been around, but not all his fights in the past were exactly fight friendly. For me, this was suppose to be an interesting/exciting fight on the card and it nearly put me to sleep. They tried hard to hype up the PR-MX rivalry between the unknown Berlanga, but the problem there, Berlanga did not go on some crazy win streak against Mexicans to build up his own rivalry vs Mexicans brand. Nothing of the likes you saw with Tito, Cotto or for example Pacquiao. He literally came into the fight with nothing really. He's also a NYRican, so he doesn't exactly tap into the native Ricans who want to tune in from the island because they see themselves in him. The main event was OKAY for a gimmicky opponent in Berlanga for Canelo to cash in another mega paycheck, but that's all Canelo wanted at the end of the day. I'm surprised it did so well......

For as much as they hyped it, especially w/them playing up the MX/PR Rivalry, I think they expected more. Whole card was weak (unless you like showcase fights) so I guess it did better than expected. Now imagine had Ginger had the balls to fight Benavidez........thos would've EASILY done 1 mill with the same undercard! I'm also starting to get the whiff of Mayweather from Ginger, w/how Floyd was toward the end of his career (claiming he was going to ko his opp, yet not coming close). Yes, if Ginger or his promoters want his PPV numbers to hit the 1 million mark, he'll have to fight Benavidez.

I personally thought he would max at around 500k, if that. For a name not recognized like Berlanga and a bad card altogether, those are great numbers. Kinda sucks for fans wanting to see him take on Benavidez, because he'll want to keep fighting young inexperienced fighters with not so big names because he'll know he's gonna make good money regardless.
