Comments Thread For: DAZN Narrows Field For Canelo 9/14 Opponent Selection

What are you talking about? Canelo straight up said he does not want to fight GG again. Why are you trying to deflect it?

I'm not deflecting ****, which is why I said correct me if I'm wrong. Canelo telling GGG to win a belt and then fight, yes I know that, but the facts are they were negotiating a third fight. GGG stalled them, he officially lost the 2nd fight, and should be given full blame for the negotiations falling through.

Canelo isn't fighting in September, too late. He isn't ever fighting Golovkin, either. He doesn't owe Golovkin anything. They've already fought twice and the score is what it is.

Drop DAZN, Canelito. Out of spite is good with me.

Actually it does since canelos contract isn't based on ggg. It's on canelo being canelo. If anyone has anyone by the nuts its canelo who has dazn and ggg sweating. Most likely ggg contract worth a fraction of 100m without nelo.

The point is not what Canelo's contract shows since GGG is not named in it, and everyone knows the contract is not based on GGG in any way, it comes down to what the financial interest of DAZN holds, along with their ability or lack of ability to influence Canelo, and the agreements they came to and will come to. I doubt DAZN is sweating because whatever is in the contract is all Canelo is obligated to, unless Canelo doesnt fulfill whatever obligations he has. Then there will be a battle that could lead to court. Canelo can do whatever he wants, as long as it complies with the agreements and I dont see Canelo going against the arrangements made. But the fact is - if the headlines are correct, it will be either GGG or Kovalev. Andrade doesnt bring in any money, even though he is a solid contender.

I’m done with everyone involved in this situation. Pick a fight and end this saga. I won’t be paying for any fight Canelo is included in until he fights Charlo anyway

Dope name btw

[wrecksracer]

Canelo should prove that he is in charge by making a lowball offer to Charlo lol. It's a marketable fight. If Kovalev doesn't take the lowball offer, maybe Charlo will. It's an action fight. Better viewing than Andrade.

Canelo should drop DAZN & go to SHO..

SHO should then drop the crappy fights Uncle Al has left for them

[icha]

Some feel that Canelo has nothing to prove but I would love to see a third fight. Why not? I have no dog in the fight but it would be intriguing!

i dont have a problem with the fight, but canelo trying to fight kova or andrade or smith is also good for boxing, now if munguia happens instead of ggg then i will have a problem with that...
i understand canelo asking ggg to get a title, canelo goes to war with jacobs for a title while ggg fights rolls and turns down andrade and charlo... those two fighting for the right to be called undisputed it will make for an even bigger fight for dazn...

[Jab jab boom]

Canelo has many options, mungia being one of them. Why wouldnt canelo be able to fight mungia. Mungia is much higher caliber than Steve Rolls. Canelo just fight jacobs. What am I missing here...

What you're missing is that muguia sucks, really deserved to Lose his last fight to a nobody, and for the amount of money Canelo is being given from Dazn, they're not allowing a 2nd cupcake fight in less than 11 months with fielding and muguia.

Canelo, "What Golovkeen?'
"I doan need no Golovkeen!"
"I doan have to fight no stinking Golovkeen!"

Those headlines are just posturing. But your forgetting that canelo generates massive crowds and brings the funds no matter who he fights. It's not like ggg fights where they close off sections of the arena.

Daxn is just trying to generate money off gggs contact cause without canelo ggg is just some old guy who can't draw.
