    How is it that DAZN only arrived at 2 people, one who had been shot down already is the better question?

    DAZN gave Canelo a 1 fight list of opponents & when that fell through as fights often can they f#cked up their own sh^t by losing the 2nd biggest fight date of the year.

    You can make this about Canelo, but Canelo is getting paid one way or another. DAZN gots more on the line here & they dropped the ball massively with this situation.

      Not denying that haha. Canelo's contract is 2x bigger and they gave the keys to GGG. Bunch of idiots if you as me.

        Agreed, the list should have been bigger, but it seems pretty clear that there was no list to Canelo, just Kovalev. If he was as dead set on Sergey as reports made it seem, then it wouldn't have mattered who else they put on the list, it was still Kovalev or nothing for Canelo. It's been known for awhile that Kovalev/Yarde was most likely going to be made for August. There was still a possibility to make it, but Canelo/GBP dropped the ball and were ****ing the IBF and Derev off. Again, there was a whole list of people Canelo could have chosen that weren't about to have a fight signed, which led to the postponement and subsequent problems thereafter. I mean ****, he had to have known a mandatory was going to be enforced, no need ****ing around. All parties involved ****ed up massively.

            From reports it seems there is a side issue between Golden Boy & Canelo. Thats not about this situation doe.

            This situation lands firmly on DAZN. DAZN is the one trying to get subs. Canelo isn't trying to get subs. Canelo is trying to get mfing paid via one of these $30M+ paydays from this DAZN deal. Golden Boy is trying to get their piece of that. Everyone was trying to do there job in this situation EXCEPT DAZN. DAZN was trying to throw their **** on the table & it massively backfired & its gonna hurt their multimillion dollar business because of it. Canelo is gonna get a $30M+ payday whenever DAZN allows him to fight. Golden Boy is gonna get their piece of that plus put on their other shows. DAZN is the one who's missing something & its their f#cking fault its missing.

            I don't know how you are so confused with who's most at fault here. DAZN is the owner of the f#cking business making a play at the US market which is highly competitive. Canelo is an employee. Golden Boy is an employee. And DAZN had one f#cking plan for the 2nd biggest fight date of the year. And it went south & now THEY are f#cked up. Canelo ain't f#cked up. Golden Boy might be f#cked up but thats cuz of this Canelo side sh^t.

              I've said both sides ****ed up. They should have okayed a bigger list of opponents but Canelo ONLY wanted Kovalev. All sides are to blame but yes DAZN royally ****ed up.

                I can agree that DAZN is most at fault with you to end this back n forth.

                I just think because of whats at play here they are the ones who f#cked up & made the problem a problem. Canelo was trying to fight. Golden Boy was trying to promote. DAZN was supposed to be trying to put on content for fans, but instead they got too into putting their **** on the table vs providing content on the 2nd biggest fight date in the US.

                  I signed up in June for a year figuring I get at least 2 Canelo fights including the trilogy and hopefully one WBSS final at a decent (US) time plus the AJ-Ruiz rematch. Pretty disappointed so far minus the Hooker-Ramirez main event (rest of the card was trash), but still for a year it was a good price since I also have bought a few PPVs lately. I could seesomeone paying month-to-month cancelling until they actually get some fights scheduled.

                    Yeah how can they be milking Golovkin and Canelo when they have never fought each other for DAZN.

                      Yeah, this Skipper fella needs to be fired ASAP.
                      Seems he sold his soul to Loeffler and can't focus on anything
                      other than that ****** trilogy.
                      Look what happened.
                      Canelo ended up not fighting in September.
