Comments Thread For: Hearn: Making Canelo-Plant Not Complicated; DAZN, FOX Will Make Huge Offers

Canelo showing trinket wooden belt holder's how its done.
With ggg unifying later in the year adrande & charlo should be doing the same, creating an undesputed at middle, making & earning a cash cow Canelo shot.

[Inspired]

Al Haymon has his chance to Swoop Canelo from DAZN, all the big fights at 168 are on rhe PBC side, Canelo/Plant then Canelo/Benavidez after

Nothing binds them to pbc. They are advised by al haymon but they can go to dazn if they want. They are al haymons bosses, not the otherway.

Pbc is a weird cult.

pbc already offered canelo 75mil for plant-charlo-yirdim in the past, but 3 fight deal was too long of a deal for canelo at the time.. being on ppv allows for bigger offers plus now that they can have full live gates thats also a good amount of cash if it goes to vegas...

Well said, good post.

Why is it a weird cult if the fighters are the bosses and they get to call the shots with an advisor who gets them the fights they want and paid better than anywhere else since they can go between promotion to promotion? Doesn’t sound like a cult to me, sounds like a lucrative business arrangement for the fighters

[Stinger1]

Would Fox be willing to put up a big enough guarantee to outbid DAZN on the fight? If we assume a $40m purse for Canelo and a $10m purse for Plant (probably a bit high but just to make the numbers easy) then that's $50m which requires $100m of PPV revenue. Canelo v GGG I & II did $120m & $110m, Canelo v Chavez did $80m and Canelo v Cotto did $58m.

Do the economics of a Canelo v Plant fight work for Fox?

[SplitSecond]

Everyone should be surprised if this fight happens. Because despite having every reason to make this fight, You never know with the conmen over there at Haymon enterprises. Still might not want to risk their belt.

This is the only type of deals Canelo will get from these frauds, and ofcourse the usual suspects will lap it up.

No one escapes PBC Island all praise Lord Haymon and his slave minions.

PBC has 90% of the welterweights and what we get ...

[IAMTHAT]

Plant gets beat, still want to see this happen to have an undisputed champion.

After that the fun starts: Benevidez, Charlo, Andrade or GGG III. Not sure if Canelo beats the first three.

Right!! There is only one reason why they think it's a cult and we know what that reason is. They can't stand that Canelo, who is the UNDISPUTABLE P4P king of boxing, will soon be doing business with the evil Dr. Al Haymon. Yes the same Al Haymon who steered Floyd to almost a billion dollars in earnings. They are so scared that Canelo will actually side with his own finacial interest in doing BIDNESS with Al. There is a real good chance that once Al and FOX show him his potential earnings he will never go back to DA-ZASTER again. Hearn knows that and if he loses Canelo then it's over for him in Amerikkka. Al will remind Canelo that it has always been about the PPV king not the APP king. Fights with Plant, Benevidez and Charlo will hit all the racial/racist demographics that American boxing needs to succeed. Plant will be marketed throughout the south to try and enrage all the confederates to root for Plant against the MESSCANS and buy the PPV. Trust me if Plant loses then there will be a lot of anti-immigration bills passed in a hurry. Benevidez will stir up the self hate between Mexican Americans and 'real' Mexicans. The Charlo fight will be the mothership of racism in American boxing, ******* vs beeners. That Charlo fight will generate a kings ransom. Actually those three fights will generate more than that fake azz 365 mill contract he had with DAZN. If that happens then Hearn loses him forever because there won't be a DAZN to go back to after a year or so with PBC because DAZN will be DA GONE. After Devin fights his last one on his contract in two weeks who do they have that will push subs? Andrade just fought so he's not due to fight a euro until later this year. Ortiz will probably never fight on that App again because Oscar will be transitioning to either Thriller or Showtime real soon. Mungia will be the last significant GBP fight on DAZN. So I guess the whole "American takeover PPV is dead" didnt really workout to well for him
