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

[Verus]

I get that he's coming off of surgery but who says he has to take this fight??? Errol Spence came off of a horrific crash and jumped right back into tough action.

I guess you didn't get the memo. Canelo is undisputed and Ryder is the first mandatory. Here is the thing, if Alvarez, fights an undefeated champion at a higher weight the knuckle draggers will say he is ducking his mandatory. If he fights his mandatory then these same folks will say he is ducking fighter X, Y, or Z. The real entertainment is in watching this cycle repeat itself and the knuckle draggers take personal offense and get all exorcised about it.

How noble of him to take a pay cut after being grossly overpaid for the past 5 years.

Overpaid because? It is a negotiation guy. The market price is not over the market or under the market, it is the price period! Now ask yourself this: Whoever they are have overpaid him because they love him, they hate him, they are ******, they are saints, they are sinners, or what? The concept of a fair price, a low price, a high price an unfair price has nothing to do with economics. It is just babble.

Vegas doesn't want the fight. After poor sales with Bivol & GGG. Ohh how the mighty has fallen

You don't get it. Those events were sold out at full capacity, Vegas does not make money from the gate receipts, the promoter does. And they don't get any money from pay-per-view and the like, In fact, "Vegas" even subsidizes the fight beyond those revenues. Vegas is even able to outbid, competitors offering large stadiums as venus because of the extra Casino revenue Canelo fights and super fights generate.

Benavidez bee mandatory longer than Ryder, gtfoh with this garbage excuse

Check your facts, man. Ryder is the first mandatory according to the agreed-upon schema of the major boxing organizations.

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.

How can you say nobody cared about the Bivol and GGG fights when those events generated millions of dollars? Your statement is nonsense on the face of it. Just simply be truthful and say, "I didn't care for those fights."

God you are thick. Canelo will generate millions of dollars fighting a janitor, that is not the point you muppet.

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

And Ryder, LOL.

He ducks anyone unless he is sure he will have a win. Clenelo is nothing but a B+ fighter who has been well managed and well paired all of his career.
