Comments Thread For: Canelo Knocks Out Liam Smith in Nine To Win WBO Title

[russogd3]

still fight could have been made, who turned it down? GGG cant offer canelo anything, he is not the A side

Exactly. Canelo submitted to both Floyd and Cotto to make the fight happen. He took a major loss in money and weight for Floyd, and a major loss to Cotto in money. Similarly, Floyd had to submit to De La Hoya to make that fight happen, and so on... The list goes on of fighters who have submitted to the A side to make the fight. Fact is that ggg doesn't want these fights, this is proven by his unrealistic terms and demands.

All of those got Ppv upside, it's the norm. Hell Khan got upside. If this Ppv bombs they gotta get upside even at a lower guarantee.

They got ****D by Cotto! He made over $30 MILLION ++

And Jay-Z/ROC Nation did JACK SHT in helping promote the fight. It's was all Oscar and B-Hop putting in all the work.

He has improved, Floyd would still school him again though.

@ 152 of course

[torosboxing75]

This are his exact words "about a month ago we offer him two or three times the amount of money we offer previously and we still have not heard anything from him or his team" we did not wanted to say anything out of respect to my opponent (Liam Smith) but now I can say it for everybody to hear....

Yup and the ****** translator says he said no.

Exactly. But the difference is that Canelo wanted the fight and believed he could win, and he did. That catapulted him to the unquestionable #1 PPV star in the sport.

If ggg wanted this fight and thought he could win, he would have the same mentality. Take the fight now, albeit not the terms that he wants, win the fight, then become the P4P #1 and the biggest PPV draw. Not to mention, he would make it all back, plus more in the rematch.

I don't see any way Canelo could make 152 unless you start amputating body parts.

Like Smith said.

@152 canelo looked like a dead man standing at weigh in

[JakeTheBoxer]

So Canelo beat a paper champ, no surprise.

It doesnt prove anything, I stiil think Canelo has zero chance against GGG.
