Comments Thread For: Benavidez Promoter Confirms Meeting With Reynoso, Plans To Pursue Canelo Fight

Au contraire! PBC/Showtime has way more leverage than Dazn. Showtime can remind Reynoso that Canelo v Plant did 800k and Canelo v 3G did 500k on Dazn. They can also point out that Ryan v Tank just did 1.2 mill 3 weeks ago. Can also explain that it's not to late to regain the title "face of boxing" by fighting Benevidez, Jermall, Andrade and Morrell. All those fights combined probably generates 6-700 mill dollars. He doesn't need to jeopardize that by fighting Bivol again at 168 or 175 and risk losing and all that stuff goes up in smoke.,

DAZN will pay more. Showtime answers to CBS, who is doing a lot of financial cutback especially with the Paramount reorg...a lot of red tape. DAZN answers to one person at the end of the day, money is not a issues

The Tank/Ryan PPV buys have nothing to do with Canelo.

MR/DAZ has one more fight with Canelo...they are not going to just cede him to Showtime. Benavidez will be fighting Canelo on DAZN.

Man Benavidez is tailor made for Canelo… The only way Benavidez beats Canelo is if he becomes a technically gifted fighter over night like Mayweather, Lara, and Bivol. It’ll be fun while it lasts.

Bumavidez has high output like Bivol and GGG. But, he hasn't Bivol's footwork or GGG's jab. Also, he is so sloppy and flat footed.

Middle difficulty fight for Nelo. He wins by UD or body shot TKO.

It would be huge PPV tho.

I do not wanna see Clenelo Bivol 2 as it will play out even worse for Clenelo unless they pay off the judges. Even the judges in the first fight could not find enough rounds to give to Clenelo without looking su****ious.

Benavidez beats Clenelo by UD or late stoppage.

Canelo should forget about Bivol and get Benavidez. Easy fight for Canelo and it would be the biggest PPV not only this year, but in the past couple of years.

Love this . I don’t think Canelo can win but really hope he does. Finally some good fights coming together

Great News! This fight is HOT! If Canelo loses to Bivol, it's a wrap! Strike while the iron is HOT! Tank and Shakur, take notes!

[FaustoGeraci]

Benavidez is the biggest fight out there for Canelo currently but if Benny fights and wins again it becomes bigger so expect it to happen next year. Let's see if he risks his shot or not.

Benavidez fighting anybody doesn't make it bigger. He just beat Plant. It's time to make the fight now. It's much bigger than Bivol 2.

Saul Alvarez has one more fight under Matchroom, regardless of his Bivol fight or not.

I can't imagine MR/DAZN not being involved & unlike the Plant fight where they had the final title & MR has no working contract with Alvarez...PBC/Showtime/DeCubas/Samson has no leverage as far as broadcasting .

I expect MR to bid aggressively...as they should.
