    Doesn’t Canelo feel a little shame or embarrassment for continually not challenging himself ..

        If those are the two options Eubank is the more profitable fighter. Canelo now is more interested in the business of boxing.

          Maybe, but got to remember that Eubank had done two camps back to back trying to get down below MW to fight Benn.

Did what he needed to in the rematch so deserves credit for that.
          All you said is true, but he doesn't deserve a fight with canelo, then again he fits the profile for the canelo sweepstakes. I just waiting for one of his events to flop big time.

            I can’t see a lot of people tuning in to either one of these in the states. That would make Eubank the better option because it opens up ppv sales in England.

            I don’t think that is a fight worth watching.

              Eubank Jr., didn't see that as a possibility ahead of Berlanga.

              He'd get stopped or survive the distance and that would be it. Berlanga too, but yes, they both may get a fight with Canelo in future.

                For such subpar opponents, Canelo may as well fight both of these guys this year. Berlanga in Sept and Eubank in Dec.

                  If Canelo isn't fighting Benavidez , I'm not watching. Neither should any other boxing fan. When Canelo gets half of his usual payday , maybe then he will realize that you have to give the fans what they want at some point.

                    How did eubank even come to enter the conversation? Not even ranked at 168; doesn't hold a title even in a lower/higher weight. Wtf?

                      Why? No one wants to see these fights.
