Comments Thread For: Hearn on Canelo Matchmaking Criticism: He Can't Win! R?sum? Speaks for Itself

He went with Hearn so he doesn’t have to face Benavitez. It’s obvious.

C’mon brother , he’s doing a little more than just promoting if you ask me
Promoters promote like you said , this is more like promoter has crush on his fighter

You never heard Bob Arum say that Lomachenko is the best fighter he's seen since Muhammad Ali?

Hyperbole and exaggeration is what these guys do.

Most of those ‘European stiffs’ were holding belts at SMW (which he’s just cleared) and LHW apart from Plant… who, wait for it, is not European!

Yildrim and Fielding are bollocks though, I’ll give you that.

Plant is European. Just born in America. Learn to see through the racial component given that is where most of the energy comes from.

Canelo is held to a different standard because he is ATG material, that's the only explanation these guys can give because if he was such a ducker and such a fighter who fights only bums why would these guys would want their favorite fighter to fight Canelo, ¿What do they gain from beating such a ducker? They don't make any sense at all.

When you claim to be P4P #1 and keep going on about "history" and "legacy", of course you are going to be held to a different standard.

They gain clout and material prosperity from beating the cash cow and face of boxing. What a ****** comment honestly. This is the level of discourse ginger stans are operating on.

He is ducking all them fighter's, canelo going after the easy fights. Only good fights he had were against Floyd, Lara, triple G, which he lost to all of them but got the win except for Floyd, Sergey said it himself that he's to old for that fight and Europeans suck. He's beaten paper Champs who won a vacant belt, and has been going after the tall, slow, heavier fighter's so he can easily attack the body and break them down. The rest of them are old washed up fighter's at the end of their careers. Now caleb and bivol, what only 19 career fights? If he truly wanted to make a legacy he should of fought all them fighter's he's ducking specially andrade who hits and runs like Mayweather, andrade sure to won. He has no great record like Manny, Marquez, Julio Cesar Chaves, Bradley, triple G, who fought only top contenders who deserved a title fight and went to war and won and loss. Those are true legacy

EVERYONE (hardcore fans, boxing historians and sports analysts) know 168 is one of the WEAKEST divisions in boxing. Its not even an argument. Becoming undisputed at 160 or 175 ****s all over 168. Good for Saul on paper band Fanboys will cheerlead but real recognize real.

I agree with Hearn. They will always raise the bar for Canelo. If he fought one guy he avoided the other. But that has always been the way with the superstars and P4P of the sports. They didn't fight this guy or that guy. Bivol is a top bigger opponent with real skills and the bigger risk is Beterbiev. Everyone else is interesting but by far Canelo will be the favorite.

Benavides has trouble making the weight, has not really beaten anyone and his style will benefit Canelo. Charlo is skilled, has to come up and has no momentum what so ever in the ring with all his troubles outside the ring. If he don't fight GGG they will say that he avoided the 3rd fight.

All interesting matchups but he can't fight everyone at once.

Beterbiev has a weak chin, yes he has power but no combination punches. Easy for canelo too. He is ducking them other fighter's

[Boxergon1313]

Dmitry Bivol and Gennady Golovkin; Whoever pays an additional $60 for that shit along with their $20 per month DAZN subscription are being played for a bunch of dumb motherfuckers. Neither guy stands a chance of defeating Canelo anyhow. Which is the reason why he is cherry picking them in the first place. Eddie Hearn is making a damn fool out of the typical boxing fan by overcharging them for Canelo's mismatch fights.

What? Triple G beat canelo bad the first fight and second I give it a draw, canelo has beaten paper Champs who won a vacant belt that where not even top contenders to fight for the belt. I used to be canelo fan but when he started cherry picking I lost all respect for him

[Boxergon1313]

Why do folks complain about criticism? It comes with being at the top of anything in life. We live in a soft world where this guy and his fans can’t accept a difference of opinion on his greatness or even if someone had a close fight with him. Just keep winning and stfu. Boxing aint ishhh without the fans and maybe the fans want him to fight other people, it’s their right to want more, or less.

I say the same thing, if you root for a fighter because he's from your race then your a fake fan. I root for fighter's who fight top contenders and go to war , those who don't chery pick and go after taller, heavier and slower fighter's.

[Boxergon1313]

True boxing fans know, like him or not, Canelo is the man. His resume is the best out right now and it’s not even close. Only haters would argue that Canelo is ducking someone.

Lol you calling yourself a real boxing fan? Lmfao get the **** out of here. A real boxing fan has no favorite fighter nor roots only for his race fighter's, those are fake fans.
