Comments Thread For: Canelo's Television Future To Be Decided Soon

[Boksfan]

How is Oscar gonna pimp out Clenelo now?

Wherever Canelo goes, Golovkin will follow.

He needs to go the opposite direction as Canelo.

[MagikLair]

sources say it's Lifetime. Television for women. But good luck to him, hopefully he can work on his English to be a bigger star.

"Not all of those who have reached out to Golden Boy are ones that are currently televising boxing.

"There's some that do boxing, there's others that don't do boxing but are interested," Gomez explained further."

Obviously. Some mfers were acting like GBP didn't have a valuable product. Getting GBP & obviously Canelo is an attractive deal for some mfers not even in the boxing business. You are guaranteed a certain audience with Canelo there.

And does this part:
"If the decision is made to fight on this date, will HBO be involved?

"HBO has told us that they're committed to finish out the year and they would be available and that's going to be a decision Oscar's going to have to decide on what he wants to do," said Gomez."

Sound like the door is open on Canelo closing out HBO boxing if he were to fight in December? Or is the HBO Boxing budget spent already? Or could they put some of the PPV profit from September into a regular HBO Boxing event with Canelo to close things out in a bigger way? Or maybe even a PPV?

Two elite fighters that will find the same home, wherever it is.

It won't be long before we see Amazon and Netflix enter boxing.

Tend to agree.

This streaming thing isn't even its toddler phase yet obviously. This sh^t is gonna change how people view & watch sh^t. A fully customizable experience is what this is heading towards.

I wouldn't even go to HBO, they're getting out of Boxing. Why give them some more time?

That's like a chick saying she gonna break up with you but she'll let you hit one mo time. Well bad example maybe lol.

[BigZ44]

If they bring back the NBA on NBC theme synced to boxing highlights to kick off broadcasts, I'm all in!

[Drew Bundini Br]

Should do a fight by fight basis. Let the best bidders get him each fight.

Cuz Canelo wants to fight in 10-11 weeks & it might not be possible to setup a TV deal + find open TV schedule time that quick I'd guess. Fighting in Dec. on HBO gives them a full 7 months from now to find a new partner.

And yea lol bad example.
