Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Hearn Got Canelo Beat - Bivol Was Irrelevant, Nobody Knew Him

[Airtioteclint]

So an "irrelevant" dude beat your dude.

Got it.

[eco1]

When have I ever said Canelo was one of the greatest or acted like a nut hugger? I never even rated him that highly.

Even if he was going for Makabu, that was to get another belt in another division to enhance his legacy.

If he beats someone, it's a cherry pick. If he loses it's a cherry pick. Childish name calling. Some of you weirdo's are way too emotionally invested.

AS are the "Nelo" Nut huggers, bunch of F a g s.

Damn, everyone’s calling out Hearn lately lol. DLH, arum, ellerbe, dibella….they certainly can’t all be wrong now can they.
bettwr be careful though, Hearn has quite the following around these parts with the barrio boys….don’t want to infer the LaMM wrath

[JakeTheBoxer]

fighting prime fighters always exposes

Yup. Bivol is something different than washed up Kovalev

[Oldskoolg]

Having said that, Oscar needs to sell his company and get out of the sport. Promotions have shelf lives in the usa and golden boy isn’t what it once was when it had Mayweather and Canelo and it doesn’t look like it can regain what it had. It’s virtually a west coast promotion and since it’s on dayzin, totally impossible to grow stars on that app. That promotion is literally going nowhere. Those fighters on FOX, Showtime, ESPN would get a lot more exposure

Hahahahaha what’s up hahahaha finally the cherry picker got showed up is what happened. Now he can’t be the top dude now , CANELO essentially got his ass handed to him . He was gonna fight USYK hahahahahahah don’t hear anymore of that talk!
next Yo Mang is fightin a 40 yr old GGG! If GGG WHUPS CANELO THEN HE DONE
Canelo is the new VAIN JANGLING MANG

This shows you what a hater he was.

Note that when Mayweather was active, he was one of the most vocal person to cry about Mayweather not fighting the best and how it is killing the sport.

Here he is admitting that he would look to hide his fighters from challenges.

People shouldn't call anyone a duck in response to that creampuff Garcia.

[The D3vil]

So, Oscar's admitting what we've all been saying all these years, that he was protecting Canelo from GGG.

All that "I can't fight at 160lbs even thought I'm the champion at that weight" bullshxt was nonsense and we knew it

I know the Canelo stans won't admit it, though.

[Hustle]

More likely shows he wanted another belt in a higher division to add to his cv. Only the dumbest of people could think Bivol is easier than Charlo. Canelo's match making throughout his career shows he probably isn't that dumb when it comes to those things.

Fighting the likes of Floyd, Lara and GGG shows Canelo is willing to sometimes take tough fights he might lose. Even past prime Kovalev had some real risk. Canelo has picked some cherries through his career no doubt, but Bivol never was one.

When you beat up 5 straight pale faces. You start to think they're all the same.

[Madison Boxing]

Fighting bivol for 15 million instead of Charlo for 45 million let's us know he thought bivol would be easy.

he thought bivol and ggg 3 was easy money he could get and then go back and leverage pbc into offering even more next year after his dazn deal is up.

exactly that ^. they were even planning for the fight after bivol, they didnt really consider him a threat. they just thought he was another stiff euro and it backfired
