Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo Decided Money Didn't Matter; He Wanted Deliver For His People On May 6

I thought semi retired Golovkin at 168 was supposed to do that?

Wasn't enough apparently...

I'm placing a bet ryder gets a draw in this fight

I was thinking of throwing like $20 on Rosado hoping he does a Bek Da Bully on Zurdo who is favored by like -4000!!! But man Rosado looks shot!!! Even for $20.

And you may be right. On the other hand I'd like to see any jackass with a punk big mouth and Organ Grinder/Flying Monkey-type actually earn his stripes and have to take the long hard flight of stairs up to the top floor. Given all of their verbal ************, it should be no problem for them to ascend such a route, except maybe for the lack of activity, being shot at, stabbed or whatever other **** grown men can't think objectively enough to easily avoid. etc etc.

If he beats Plants he’s probably earned it though tbf to him, especially in these modern times where everybody just sits around waiting for the phone to ring.

The likes of Saunders and Plant himself are prime examples, they fought nobody waiting for that Canelo payday.

Canelo needs to boost his confidence and support after the Bivol masterclass.

Canelo will never risk losing the Mexican/Latino fanbase. He had a similar stance on Zurdo.

I think they’re both very winnable fights for Canelo but he isn’t gonna take what he sees as an unnecessary risk.

I agree with all of your points. I see Canelo's reasoning for not facing Benevidez however I do disagree with it. I too would like to see he and Benevidez clash.

I think Plant has a good chance on points tbh, I think Benavidez is overrated. Good 50/50 fight.

However, Canelo-Benavidez is the fight people want to see at 168 so for the sake of the division I hope Benavidez gets the W.

Will Benevidez get the upcoming work done? And if he does, can he keep his socks and pants up as a professional? I'd like to see Canelo take on the weight bully also, but it occurs to me that outside of a lite resume, the self-arresting Benevidez has much trouble holding onto his titles due to the man in the mirror.

By fighting Ryder?

Feels like most of the Mexican fanbase would love to see Canelo fight Benavidez. Will he deliver that for his people?
