Oscar: With Mayweather & Pacquiao being retired Canelo is the face of boxing

This dude is an idiot. Arum said he was one of the dumbest guys he's ever met

“[Golden Boy has] no background in boxing,” Arum told the paper. “They rely on Oscar, who’s a dummy. Oscar is one of the ******est guys I’ve ever met. I’m just saying what it is. The guy is really not smart. Forget just ‘not smart.’ He’s not just even average.”

“Well, the passing of the torch has already taken place,” said De La Hoya about Canelo during Wednesday’s conference call. “With Mayweather being retired and Pacquiao being retired, Canelo is the face of boxing now. He’s proven it with ticket sales. He’s proven it with Pay-Per-Views, and he’s going to prove it once again by outselling Manny Pacquiao at the AT&T arena. So I believe this is just the beginning for Canelo, and he has a long future ahead for himself. We can’t wait to be part of it.”

And he lied about the Canelo-Khan PPV numbers

In May Oscar claimed Canelo-Khan did 600k buys & reports of fewer sales were WAY OFF. For #CaneloSmith projection... pic.twitter.com/SB14kZJV7Z

And he's lying about the Canelo ticket sales outpacing Pacquiao's last three fights. How the hell is it outpacing May-Pac?

Any dumb mother***ers that think PPV sales makes someone a great fighter or the face of boxing needs to blow their ***ing head off and do society a favor by ridding themselves from breathing the same oxygen that normal people with common sense breath. They are a waste of oxygen.

Ppv sales don't make you great.. But they do make you the face. Hence Floyd doing record numbers

Hes not and he'll never be respected by fans if he doesn't fight ggg soon. It's a bad day for boxing if he's the face of the sport.

No one boxer ever has been or ever will the face of boxing and that includes Mayweather. The concept is a false and ****** one. Some boxers are more important than others but boxing depends on lots of good fighters and lots of good fights to thrive. Mayweather is missed but boxing is carrying on OK without him. Canelo is an important fighter but he could retire today and within less than a year he would be forgotten about.Good fighters come and go and new good fighters replace them.

If Canelo is not the face of boxing who is? simple question...name me a bigger draw that been consistently on PPV.

He's well positioned, problem is he's nowhere near as good as those two and they know it. And he's real unlucky he's same weight as the real deal
