    So, same question, who in their right mind is going to offer Canelo $200 mil other than Turki and that’s not happening.

    Shifting goalposts all the time is all we see for Canelo apologists
    I am not a Canelo apologist; when he makes the wrong move, he needs to be called on it. My question remains: Who made the offer, and when and how much was offered? As to your question, I have no idea who would pay that kind of money, but a question cannot be answered by another question but by verifiable facts alone. I am still interested to find out, what the "insane offer" was, if anything. It seems that a so-called reporter would ask Benavidez the obvious -- who made the offer, how much and when. Anything else is drivel.

      And yet Caleb Plant who did disrespect Canelo got a fight.

      According to you, Munguia, Charlo, Berlanga and perhaps Mayorga are all better than Benavidez. That’s why Canelo fought them.
      This is besides the point but Planet disrespected Canelo during the build-up to the fight This is after the contract was signed. Who is Mayorga?

        Benavidez hit the nail on the head. There was communication between the PBC and Turki Al sheikh to help get the fight made but Harmon couldn’t get coward azs clenelo to get on board

            Dude, let it go. Move on. Canelo is not fighting you. Forge your own career path.

                  Ricardo Mayorga! He is the perfect opponent for Canelo since Benavidez isn’t getting a shot.

                    Fair point.
                    I don’t think an “insane” amount was offered but Benavidez said he was willing to accept $5 million to Canelo’s $45 million. That’s the amount Canelo was estimated to be making against the ATG guys he fought in Munguia, Charlo and Berlanga while the #1 contender at 168 has been calling him out.

                      Please cite the source. Turki Al Sheikh publically and forcefully stated that he would only talk and negotiate with Canelo and no one else.
