      BerNalgas has been getting a lot of praised for going 12 rounds against canelo. I don’t get it. Such a lopsided fight. Berlanga will be another overhyped PR fighter.

        I don't know man, he's young still. If his body will allow him to stick around for a couple of years at 168, he'll have a few good fight coming his way. He might find some relative success within 2 years at 168 in my opinion.

          I'm surprised it did so well...... While some folks thought it would bomb and do under 250k I surely thought it would do much worse than what is being reported. If the event had flopped, Ginger would have been forced to pick a big name as his next rival.

          The amount of money this fight generated will only convince Ginger that his notion of him being the shot caller is accurate. Sucks for the fans that want to see him fight Benavidez or even Bud. I find it hard to believe that Turki will offer Ginger over 100 million to fight Bud or over 150 million to fight Benavidez.
          I really dont have a issue with Nelo asking for that amount its one of the biggest fights in boxing today why not ask for that amount??

            I'm of the opinion that a fighter is worth the amount of money they can receive. If it is true that Ginger was able to generate 650k PPV buys against Berlanga, I can't fault him for THINKING he should receive at least 100 million to fight Bud or Benavidez.

            The reality of it is that Promoters and Networks are gonna wanna keep doing business with him. Like him or not, he's in a position to not need to be taking selfies with Turki to make $-hit loads of money...

            Another reality is that we might not get to see him fight Benavidez nor Bud and yet he'll still make large amounts of money and he'll still keep his loyal fans happy.. Oh well, there's still plenty of good fights ahead that don't involve Ginger and I'll certainly enjoy watching them.

              I tend to agree i still think it happens because there is to much money for it not to happen, Nelo is just milking it at this point but then i thought the same with Wilder vs Joshua ****** potential of money to be made yet Greed ensured it never happened.

              Im hoping we get either Crawford or Benavidez for 2025 both would be wild i prefer Nelo to just swallow his pride and know 168 is his limit for a world title fight, Bivol rematch will be boring and similiar to the first fight unless Nelo was significantly hampered which he wasnt.

                I too believe he should stick to 168. I don't see Canelo hurting or beating Bivol, too small and too old now in my opinion. Fighting Bud and Benavidez would definitely be wild and generate lots of attention to the sport of Boxing in my opinion.

                  But 160 is too much, he said. 168 is my limit, he said. 175 after winning a title is too much, he said. I want to rematch Bivol at 175 he said last Saturday
