    Will the Canelo vs Caleb Plant fight get made easily?

    Or will there be complications? With it possibly not getting made at all?

    No logical reason not to. Canelo wants it. Presumably Plant will use that leverage, but only he his team can ensure they dont cross the line.

    strange case where "B side" has leverage. If Plant wants it, its his. He doesnt or demands say 90% of the purse or a 40 ft ring, well, that would speak volumes about what he wants from his career.

      Nope. Haymon will make sure Plant ducks.

        No. Plant doesn’t want any of that

          I view it two ways, 1) plant has a new wife and wants to kick off this new life right with 10+ million in the bank. 2) Plant values his pride more and will try everything to roadblock this fight from happening.

            I think it's very important for both companies to get this fight on their platform. If Plant ends up fighting on DAZN it sends a message that PBC are just a feeder promotion. All of their 160-168 fighters would be regarded as B side fodder for Canelo and DAZN.

            If DAZN loses Canelo, what exactly are you getting for your 20$ a month? Losing both Canelo and Golden Boy? They'd be in a tough position to attract subscribers in the USA.

            We'll find out how committed each company is to boxing.

              Plant will do what Haymon tells him to most likely.

              If Canelo wants a one and done deal I could see PBC not wanting to let their title go.. Even though there's a lot of money to be made.

                Canelo will fight in Sept. With or without Plant. Dude is insignificant besides having that trophy.

                He (Plant) should just Bend-Over & Ca$h out.
