Comments Thread For: Arum Very Interested in Bringing Canelo and Golovkin To ESPN

Bob Arum wants Peter Nelson to have nightmares for the rest of his life.

LOL yeah it seems that way. I think Arum is bluffing here though. No way is ESPN tossing around that kind of money.

They don’t have to. Canelo would be on ESPN ppv. His opponents would come over

Oh man that would be great. Death blow to HBO. Say what you want about Arum but nobody knows the game as well as him

Both Alvarez & GEE beat "Zurdo" doe that's a given on any network.

hbo would he the same thing. Just depends which network will Pay to show Oscars other fighters

Go to Showtime or ESPN. That's where the money is at now.

Say what you want about either of those networks, but they've both made moves to keep boxing relevant...especially Showtime.

If Showtime gets Canelo they will effectively OWN boxing.

Ca$hnelooooooo

I wouldn't mind lederman and lampley need to go way to bias.

I think its a given Canelo goes to Espn and most likely Gennady also

TR & ESPn need all the big names they can get because while it’s not really Discussed by the media or on this forum is their ratings ( with the exception of Manny/Horn , Some Loma and Bud fights ) have been absolute sh.it

They basically avg at or below Showtime viewership numbers with 3x the subscribers.

I guess this shows he sway Arum and TR have over the media because PBC was getting roasted for their ratings on espn and if I remember correctly they basically sh.it on almost all the cards TR cards as far as viewers
