No way. Canelos guarantees are 30 million per fight. You’re expecting his mandatory to get paid 30 percent of that ?!?! No way.
Unless Golden Boy finagled Alvarez’ purse to the commission, there’s no way this was going to be allowed to go to a purse bid.
Good move by the mandatory’s team IMO. Golovkin purse is like 20 million, so don’t be surprised if this fight doesn’t make it to purse bid either. Either a deal will be struck l, or Golovkin will pass on the IBF as well.Comment

I have to second this. We will never get the all details or even close to the numbers or even a glimpse at the contracts. But we have to assume DAZN jumped in assuming they thought no way they can lose on this huge deal offering guaranteed money. Did they think that there was so much more money to ring out of boxing and its fans? All the other seasoned chiselers in the sport were leaving money on the table? How do u offer Nelo a better deal and have it be a better deal for everyone else at the same time? They can’t even attack nelo publicly without embarrassing their own decision making and destroying faith in their brand. Nobody negotiates on just good faith in boxing. Since DAZN showed up boxing has been even more stereotypically “boxing” than ever aka impossible.Comment

I think Canelo deserves whatever he wants. Turned pro at 15. Was tagged as the next DLH but took the L to a fragile Money May, and, moved up to take the fight to boogeyman GGG.
I believe his career peaks by 30yrs and with his resume and fighting style, he should get what he’s earned. That’s BIG money with options to do what the fcuk he wants.
This time 2021 we will see Canelo as a formidable opponent but “old” and post-prime.Last edited by Punch on Tap; 08-04-2019, 01:22 AM.Comment

Originally posted by FanofreasonNo fights are getting made on Dazn anymore.
They over paid and did this to themselves.
Dazn really screwed themselves.
... they actually overpaid only a small number of fights... the rest are "signed contracts", which will never be paid...Comment
