Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez To Return To HBO, Long-Term Deal In Place

[The Big Dunn]

I didn't? I put them as fights that could be made. Personally I'd rather watch either than see Alvarez chase a Lara or Charlo around the ring.

There's nothing left on the Showtime side for Canelo.

ok. I was surprised you didn't list GGG but listed them, a corpse and a ww. I agree-Showtime doesn't have anything for Canelo. HBO is by far the better option.

Floyd poisoned the showtime tree. Now they're left with Garcia who's left fighting the Salkas of this world and losing to journeymen like Herrera. Oscar is doing great. Viva boxing!

Or canelo can fight GGG

Network fanboys, ruining boxing

You can say that again.

This is great for boxing.. Now all we need is an interpromotional event between Golden Boy and Top Rank and we may finally get to see some of the fights we've been fantasizing over. Good job Oscar.

Good move by HBO. Canelo and GGG are the future of boxing. Now I want to see what Haymon does with his 120+ fighters. Showtime will have to put pressure on Haymon to match his best for Showtime to survive. They need Garcia vs. Peterson, Broner vs. Matthysse, Khan vs. Thurman, Santa Cruz vs. Mares, Guererro vs. Maidana, Quillen vs. Jacobs, and more.

they can keep the mgm grand. Cotto-Canelo can sell out the dallas cowboys stadium. hell, even the pontiac silverdome

Calm down buddy..stadium can be expanded to hold roughly 110,000. This is not a soccer match.

Don't underestimate the draw of a pr-mexico rivalry.

Canelo is GBP's best asset and HBO is wise to bring that on board. I am curious though as to their budget which has been constantly going down so how are all these mouths going to get fed on HBO.

scraping the barrel there aren't we.

Keep hating scum lol you must be mad
