Comments Thread For: Canelo To Take Pay Cut By Facing Ryder in Mexico, Says Hearn

[Regge]

A paycut for Canelo is still more than what almost any other fighter in the sport makes for any fight. He probably could care less with all the bread he's made and still got coming in from everything other than boxing. Probably doing it for the pride of his people. Ryder deserves his shot and no offense to him, but he's probably the safest option for Canelo coming back from surgery. Should be entertaining for as long as it lasts.

Exactly

Still gonna bring in more than anyone else and take a nice needed tune up.

Canelo fought Bivol and proceeded to lose. Prior to that fight, would you have accused him of ducking Bivol?

Bivol was not in his division and looked less than spectacular in previous fights, nobody cared about the bivol fight or GGG. Canelo is great at delivering fights nobody wants.

What exactly is your argument? Bivol is an undefeated belt holder at 175 and Canelo moved up to face him. Why would a “bum” do that?

I do not disagree about the GGG fight and once again, that’s not in dispute. How does it make Canelo a bum?

Why isn't Morrell the first mandatory up? Canelo beat Smith first for the WBA title then it was the WBC, WBO and finally Plant for the IBF. Do the mandatories not follow in the same order?

[BlackRobb]

He's not fighting who the fans want him to: Benavidez, Charlo, etc ..

Nobody gives AF about no Charlo! That p***y hasn't even fought in 2 years. Just say the name "Andrade" and Jermall jumps out of his skin.

“Who has he (Ryder) fought?”

[JakeTheBoxer]

To be honest, Canelo -Ryder is not a big fight and only Mexicans care.

[Gideon lock]

He should be getting less money for a opponent of this quality anyway.

Because Morrell who doesn't have a lot of big fight experience very capable beating clenelos cherry picking sorry ass. Ryder is next then clenelos ducks Benavidez again

What happened to bringing Canelo the UK and selling out huge stadiums? That narrative quickly vanished, I wonder what happened?

Europeanitis! Bivol, need I say more!
