Comments Thread For: Hearn: We'd Love To Do Canelo vs. Callum Smith At Anfield

[Mr.365]

Not only would Alvarez sell out Anfield single-handedly he would also sell out Principality Stadium/Millennium Stadium in Wales if they want a bigger stadium to vacuum more money & none of those guys were born in Wales !

Canelo is the man everyone wants a piece of and no way he fights in some place where Brits will be singing sweet Carolina and blowing those annoying soccer horns all fight!

It’ll be in Vegas or New York, Smith will be served cracked ribs when it’s all said and done!

I think bottom line is that Canelo brings the revenue, which is why everyone wants him, but given he brings the money, the fights will always be on his terms.

He would fight in places like Liverpool if he wanted to or had a reason to, but I can't think of any reason he would want to. I can see why Loma might want to expand his fan base into the UK, and with the history of the Olympics there etc, but can't think of any reason why Canelo would have any interest in taking his show on the road to the UK.

Some ppl act like Vegas is some new hot spot??? They’ve been having the BIG fights as far back as I can remember??? What these clowns want Canelo fight in Iowa or Minnesota??? Maybe North Dakota??? SMH...

They are ****** ïdiots, dreaming of the demise of the cash cow, even though the result would be the same Canelo's hand raised, and the same stupïd ïdiots be crying with added excuses looking more ridiculous than ever.

I don’t know the taxes I just remember that a lot of Combat Sports didn’t want to go to NY anymore. I think it was some Health Insurance thing??? Probably only affects smaller promotions???

You are Correct, after the Margumedoff Incident, New York, pass a new legislation that to ensure the safety of the combatants, promoters, and promotion companies have to fork out a million or more per event on top of having the highest tax in the country along with California.

If Smith won't agree to being crippled with weight restrictions, this fight is just talk. If he does agree, and he might $$$$, the fight means nothing.

Rehydration clause for Jacobs. Got caught juicing before the rematch with Golo.

Who doesnt want to see Saul fight THE man at 168? That would be one helluva fight, period. A fight that if Saul wins, would HAVE to push him in the top 5 of this generation. A fight that if he wins, would arguably push him to the top 3 mexican fighters ever, imo.

As for it having to be a BIG UK holiday....chale. Brits party no matter what month, especially for boxing. Youve seen how die hard they are for futbol. Theyre the same for boxing. Saul could fight Smith in December for boxing day. IT WOULD BE HUGE!

El Mero imbecil, ya salio un hijo de la ***** malinche, Canelo is great weather you like it or not, he is top 3 Pound per Pound, not only Top 3 mexican, but if you want to ignore that FACT is on you SeÑor Cangrejo.

You mean the rule the IBF CHANGED because of Jacobs??? You really think Jacobs weighed only 170 when they fought??? The only reason why it was not in effect is because it wasn’t just for the IBF belt. Jacobs found a way to cheat to the IBF had to change their rules.

Reason why Jacobs is moving up. I can’t believe you support dudes trying to be weight bullies....

I bet you give Saunders a pass on cheating???

Assumptions are exactly what they are. C'mon now. Its not like Saul has never "weight bullied" other fighters. It is what it is. You asked a question about advantages he's had, I answered. Didnt mean to get you all hyphy.

Calmate mijito. Looks like i hit a sore spot. I stated a fact. Why you so upset? Saul has weight bullied other fighters before. Did you cry about it then? Or did it fit your narrative? Saul is in the top 10 pound 4 pound. I dont think anyone can dispute that, but fan bias vs reality are different, and I see where you land on that spectrum, baboso.

I think Hearn realises that Andrade isn’t a big draw. Andrade and Farmer are obviously not pulling big numbers or ticket sales for Hearn and dazn. Best both could so is go elsewhere when the contract is up

Hearn is piggyback riding off of Canelo and GBP, we'll see what Joshua does this weekend, but as of now Canelo and GBP are carrying the whole weigh of the DAZN America deal.... Hell Canelo alone got 1.2 million viewership vs Jacobs, ¿what are hearns numbers, with any of his shows? I got DAZN for that fight.


The truth is Hearn has no big attraction fighters that Americans care about, hopefully, Joshua does something for the big Matchroom America promotion because so far is all GBP.
