Comments Thread For: Canelo: This Fight With Liam Smith Will Be Historic!

[MDPopescu]

Oh its going to flop! Canelo has turned off many of his own Mexican fans by blatantly ducking GGG. In addition to that, nobody really knows who this Liam Smith guy is.

In the upcoming days GBP will start giving away tickets by the thousands to fill that stadium. Or at least start heavily discounting them.

This is a fight that nobody asked for.

I don't usually look for "Karma justice" anywhere. Everybody (somehow connected to the sport) understand what Oscar and Canelo are doing right now.

But, at the end of the day, boxing is only entertainment. If they can sell it it's OK.

Understanding and accepting it are 2 different things. Sure I understand why they're doing it, but they're not going to see a dime from me in the meantime.

Same goes for every other fighter/promotional company who continues to give us crap fights that we dont ask for.

I'm a big Manny Pacquiao fan but i'm not supporting his fight with Vargas. Its not a fight that any true fight fan asked for. Crawford was available and they chose NOT to take that fight. Therefore I choose NOT to contribute towards his fight with Vargas.

It's all good doing what you have to do to sell this fight but don't go to far and call this crap historic!

[SUBZER0ED]

****nelo is right; This WILL be a historic fight. It will be the first time that the so-called "Name Of Boxing" turns out the lousiest PPV numbers in history.

Who would had ever predicted that one fight with Khan and now Canelo is as delusion as him

[Catrin]

HISTORIC? this PPV is garbage! GGG ratings vs Brook will be better than canelos Flop! how does GBP justifies this event as PPV! for God's SAKE!

I don't hope it flops -- because if it has to flop, it will flop anyway (with or without my hopes).

Oscar and Canelo want to sell AT&T stadium or at least they have to get near those Pac's numbers there... which isn't so easy.

you seem to have developed a more mature posting style over the last few days.....?

I agree.

I certainly won't be buying the PPV.

But I am not a good example, I rarely ever buy PPV's now.

I will pay for a REAL fight, like Ward/Kovalev, but not for anything else.

Not for any of Pac's rubbish, nor for any of Mayweather's lesser fights.

Fk that, still haven't seen the Berto fight to this day.

We'll see the highlights soon after, that will be good enough. And yes, I'm a boxing fan. I pay for good fights. Kovo/Ward will surely have my $$. Pac/Vargas? Don't think so...
