    What’s the minimum/maximum that Plant should get for Canelo Unification?

    DAZN will want to stage Undisputed on their platform. There’s no way around it; unless of course all parties agree to pay Canelo his guarantee on PBC PPV with a rematch clause exclusively on DAZN should Canelo lose. That’s the only trade off I could imagine, but PBC doesn’t have money, and fighting Plant for a $80 PPV I’m not sure Canelo’s fans will pay for that when they’re used to his new $20 deals.

    I think Haymon will not take anything less than a +40% more than what Smith got. Haymon knows Plant and Smith have been about the same with career metrics, and Haymon needs to be careful to not act ******.

    Plant knows that it will be his best payday and that if he’s serious for 3 belts he can’t price himself out and has ran out of excuses.

    so does $6-7mil seem fair for Plant? Or does Haymon walk? Plant doesn’t have a voice, they all bow down to master Al.

      If Yildrim got $2.5 mil, Plant will surely get somewhere from $8-10 mil. But since Canelo is so desperate to be undisputed at 168 and that will be the last belt he needs, Plant will definitely have more bargaining power. He could get even more.

        They waited until he would be the last piece of the Canelo 168 puzzle, Canelo should be free from Matchroom, DAZN? So am guessing the fight would be heading to PPV 80 dollars, and then Team Plant would be looking at %. And you know when it comes to PBC they would make it difficult as possible, so am guessing he would demand 45% and then go low from there.

            I’m not too sure Matchroom/Canelo Promotions will give the same as Jacobs or Kovalev’s purses to Plant. Those guys have had way more air time, PPV, accolades than Plant.

            There’s usually a very strict rule about metrics and meritocracy. we have to factor in pandemic pays. I think 2021 will be the final year for pay grade cuts and 2022 destabilizes.

            the thing is Plant MUST have an idea of his own PBC landscape and pays to come. We will know if he’s about that money and walk away or completely walk away and fight PBC strictly.

            Plant already said, “they gotta come correct.” That was with GBP circumstances. Canelo is now solo and now co-promoted which means Plant knows Canelo gets an idea if Plant priced himself out. That’s somewhat of perk now that Canelo is solo

              Welcome to the modern age of boxing where we have to discuss about purse splits as a result of fighters fighting more about their splits than fighting actual quality opponents.

                    He is a PBC fighter, you know are that goes. They have the most entitled stable in the whole of the sport. He has the last belt, he would think he can hold it hostage up to the point that Canelo would give in to his demands. That is how their model works in PBC island. Then we would see the usual suspect online, talking about how Canelo is ducking Plant....Just watch the smear campaign.
