"Canelo" stays beating up UK fighters.

easy work tbh

Who??? What a crappy fight.

[DaBeastO]

Name one thing I said that wasn't factual? GGG for over 5 years said he would move up to 168 instead he stayed fighting bums at 160. Canelo doing something GGG never did. 3 division champ and a new belt to add to the ones he took from GGG.

fielding isn't the wba champ dopey. smith is the real wba champ! clenelo fighting bums he should be fighting charlo instead.

but I'd have DAZN as the odds on favorite to Canelo simply because they have a believed billion dollar US TV deal and near-no talent to showcase.

You think Hearn can/will be able to afford paying Canelo $20M-$50M a fight like he could make on PPV? Cuz that would seem to what he'd need to offer him for it to make sense.

And thats just Canelo not the rest of the GBP fighters who might be worth a lot more in the near future. Munguia is a potential big star in another 12-24 months. Ryan Garcia has big potential in the next few years if he pans out (idk if I'd bet on him panning out, but maybe I'm wrong).

Could be worse. He could be fighting Vanes.

The way to be a Hall of famer

[Mexican_Puppet]

1) an explanation that starts with the word " technically " is bullshht

2) if it is " a truly meaningless belt " then Canelo is OBVIOUSLY not a genuine champion

champion means..... surpassed all rivals

and Golovkin's bullshht defence record was rubbish as well

I get your point about the technicality, but..... nah, I can't byt it..... just because some corrupt organisation pretends it is true

A lot of Legends had close wins

A lot...

And only a fighter beat Nelo clearly, Floyd... And Nelo had 23 years old

Mall Charlo Vs. GEE on Canelo's undercard that would be sweet!!

GEE will duck Charlo

[Citizen Koba]

My assumption would be he'll need to fight the Charlo vs GGG winner IF that fight happens within a reasonable period of time, but I suspect he'll have time to get a May fight lined up before that fight happens thus its not likely to be his mando til Sept so he'll work out to him having two fights before a mando. Thats my best guess anyway.

That sounds most likely - and I'd imagine the WBA would be amenable (hell, the WBA are always amenable to those with deep pockets anyway) to postponing his MW mandatory since he's fighting on of their SMW champs.

And loses a ton of money in this investment... No one wants to watch boxing on an app or computer... not buying into this or espn+... I'm going to miss HBO boxing but at least I still have Showtime, ESPN in HD, and PBC!

It’s 2018 a lot of people don’t even watch normal tv anymore. If the app is available on smart TVs and consoles it won’t be too much of a problem
