    Why not? You acting like boxing is their only income stream. I mean them getting exclusivity for all NFL and MLB content to Canada alone keeps them operating.

        We're talking in the US, not worldwide. And in terms of US, they aren't getting any subscribers of any substance with the leagues they have rights to. You are acting like they have rights to the EPL or La Liga or even MLS....They don't.

          Canelo vs Triple G 3 will happen, all this controversy just to increase promotion for a third fight.

          I doubt Canelo will fight above 160 but if he does it fights anybody other than triple G, to not let Triple G fight Andrade is ****** and shows DAZN has no clue about the Canelo fan.

          Most Canelo fans are done with Triple G, he had a close first fight and kicked his ass in the rematch, tainted meat and all.

          If Triple G fights Andrade and loses, Canelo fans would buy a Andrade vs Canelo fight. They bought the Lara fight, unify titles and you would get great numbers.

          Triple G just fought Steve Rolls, that should be reason enough he either fights Canelo, Andrade or rematches Jacobs. Even though Jacobs stinking up the place against Canelo hurt his marketability.

          Either way we have fights, get them made without all this nonsense drama. I ain’t no woman, I don’t care about this drama gossip BS.

          Get the fights made!

            Maybe DAZN is broke and needs the big fights. If they dont get them they dont have to pay anyone so no losses.

            He signed a contract for 300mil and he thinks he can just pick and choose? You want that you better go the Mayweather route and it's to late for that.

              Have you ever actually dealt with contract law? I have an its a mutha esp if you renege on it.
              ok and if they do that they lose subscribers when he doesn't fight which is why they blinked after Canelo NOT DAZN refused to fight in Sept. He flexed on them and days after Canelo's camp said he was going to wait until Dec. What did DAZN do? DAZN are now scrambling to approve a NEW opponent NOT named GGG that Canelo wants to fight as soon as Oct and now begging for a pinky promise that he will fight GGG. It's clear Canelo is calling the shots on who he fights and NOT DAZN.

                  It's not that simple of course if Canelo doesn't fight they don't have to pay him but during that time they will hemorrhage and lose subscribers. All the subscribers Canelo brought to them in May bleed out every month he doesn't fight again. The entire reason most people are signed up to DAZN today is because of Canelo they need him more then he needs them. And there is nothing in Canelo's contract that even says he has to ever fight GGG we know that because GGG wasn't even on DAZN at the time he signed and there was no guarantee GGG was ever going to sign to DAZN. Canelo ain't no slave and you can't tell him he has to fight someone when that's not in his contract. You can try and leverage him or can add incentive (pay him more to do it) but you can't force him to. They tried to leverage and tell him who to fight in Sept and Canelo just made it very clear you can't tell me who to fight and DAZN blinked and are now approving a opponent NOT named GGG who Canelo wants to fight.
