    Wrong thread? This one is about Canelos options after being made into a laughing stock

      Correct, even though Triple G's first PPV numbers were a bit soft the combination of Canelo along with Triple G makes a superfight. Sometimes the whole is greater than the parts.

      If we take it that Floyd and Manny really are retired (big if) this is the biggest fight that can made in boxing right now outside of probably Fury and Joshua.

        Maybe Bradley if he was coming off a big win.
        Cotto before that.

          It's almost kinda funny how much Mayweather and Pacquiao skewed people's idea of what a successful PPV is. Canelo vs GGG probably doesn't break a million. Meanwhile Pac vs Clottey or Mayweahter vs Ortiz were crappy fights but just below a million.

            Very good point. I guess canelo isnt the Draw that his team wants us to believe.

              Well let's see...he just fought Amir fookin khan and cleared probably 10 million in the biggest ppv fight of the year thus far. So pretty much anybody.

                Probably less, it tanked. It gets worse now that he's the butt of jokes

                  How much less, How does it get worse now? Makes no sense. Was it not the biggest ppv of the year so far? Is he not the highest paid fighter in the game right now?

                    He is but turns out he's nowhere near where Floyd and Pac were in their heyday, and he's just lost a ton of respect. The only way to redeem himself is to fight Ggg soon enough and then he takes a lot of punishment and gets knocked out

                      I'm not sure Pac and Floyd were doing these type numbers at 24-25 yrs old, were they? Beyond that, doing the consistent 1 mil ppv's in there time is somewhat of an anomaly. With that said Canelo seems to be an par or doing better numbers than both of we went age-age.

                      Canelo could get that work, if only ggg would concede to his demands, right?

                      So my OP still stands.
