What’s happening with Canelo and PBC?

[paulf]

PBC wants him to fight someone that is actually a challenge.... instead Canelo is demanding big money to keep fighting bums... PBC aren't going to pay insane money for another showcase fight. Essentially letting him walk if he insists on a 50mil+ payday to fight another showcase fight.

So Canelo's running back into the protective arms of Eddie Hearn.

This is the same thing as when GBP tried to get him to fight Golovkin a third time. He bailed instead of fight a fight where the odds would be close.

Who do you guys think Canelo fights on DAZN? Munguia?

Would be a very bad PR look for Canelo considering his sole reasoning for not fighting Benavidez was that he doesn’t want to fight Mexicans.

Berlanga and Munguia will be Canelo's 2024

Berlanga and Munguia will be Canelo's 2024

Berlanga is arguably still worse than this zombie version of Jermall.

Can we all agree that Morrell, Benavidez and Crawford on a good day are better fighters than Plant and the slugs Canelo beat to become undisputed? I'm just saying that is a tough package for Canelo to fight on Prime vs Munguia, another layup fight and Berlunga?

Berlanga is arguably still worse than this zombie version of Jermall.

And DAZN will still gladly pay.

It's hilarious becasue Berlanga is SO fking terrible


How often do you see Bob cut someone who's undefeated and already has a big built in fanbase?

Do they not have the funds to match his guarantee?

Are they trying to force him into fighting Benavidez?

Are Amazon not willing to pay what Showtime paid?

I am just speculating tbh, what do people think is happening?

Well, didn’t they along time ago have him SIGN a 3 fight contract?
So, I’m pretty sure PBC had names of opponents in that contract too or why else just let Canelo fight who HE wants to fight?
NO promotional company makes fights to make least amount of money! So, they are going to pick their BIGGEST money makers. That means Charla, Charla and Benividas. Could that change? SURE but it won’t be Canelo changing it. It will be PBC or else they will SUE THE SHEEIT out of Canelo.

Didnt canelo and pbc had a 3 fight contract??
can canelo freely dump pbc and go to another place without fulfilling his part of the contract?
Canelo wouldnt be able to do this unless pbc faills to fullfill their part of the contract which is a 35 million guarantee per fight..
Not having showtime to cover up for the ppv fights really hurted pbc since amazon is not on the ppv business, amazon wants free fights for prime video subscribers, canelo is really not part of the equation here..
deatails should emerge soon, but this seems to be the case most likely..

I believe so. Is it they can’t meet the guarantee or is it they don’t think the opponent can generate enough to make the guarantee and make a profit ?

I think your point about Showtime is solid.

This is hilarious. You guys remember...Berlanga actually signed to Dazn only to get Canelo and many guys here felt like it was a good idea to avoid Pbc roster at 168.

Berlanga will get it.
