Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn goes against Canelo Alvarez after backing him for last four years

It’s about damn time Canelo stopped ducking Berlanga…

Can you blame him? Berlanga is known to go for the jugular.

I would 100% pay 20 dollars so I don't have to move my PC setup to the living to connect to the big screen. $90 bucks? There's not a single fight I'm paying that price for. UNLESS there's actually a card with 4 main event worthy fights back to back.

Imagine a card that was:

Canelo vs Benavidez
Crawford vs Boots
Tank vs Stevenson
Ortiz vs Tszyu

(or switch up the bold and make either of those guys fight each other)

Take my money, I'll pay $100 for a stacked card.

Boxing is in such a ****** place. People don't illegally stream because they're broke. People illegally stream because they're not gonna pay a ridiculous amount to see a ****** card with one DECENT main event. This Canelo-Berlanga card isn't even good, and the main event makes Mayweather exhibitions more desirable.

*side note... this forum is becoming so pathetic. the word above that is blocked out is 'STVPID' - obviously replace the V with a U......

Well said and I couldn’t agree more.

You underestimate the lack of dignity canelo fans have. They’d gladly pay for this trash fight. Problem is, there isn’t enough of them to really make this ppv successful. That’s why canelo hasn’t hit really big ppv numbers in 6 yrs. This card is worth $20 tops so yes, Turks idea makes sense.

I’m kinda hoping that even the Canelo fan boys wake up and get off his bandwagon for blatantly ducking Benavidez.

TOPS.
$20 for me is a decent sandwich, a side or two, and a good cup of coffee.
All of which will make me feel GOOD for the rest of the day.
If I paid $20 for Canelo/Berlanga, will I literally feel as good afterwards as I will post-sandwich?
I seriously doubt it.
CONCLUSION: not worth $20

As a man who greatly enjoys a fine sandwich with a side of Mac salad and a beverage, your analogy resonates greatly with me. Now that I’m viewing it through that lens, you’re right, I lower my tops value of this fight card to $9.99.
