What a scorching hot take, Larry "bleeding edge" Merchant! Ultimately only time will tell if career 160ers will be willing to climb one division north for 30 million dollars.

Who exactly is getting 30 million???

Not a literal figure my man. I love Larry, just saying he's stating the obvious

[MulaKO]

Merchant is right
Not sure about 30 million but still good coin for anybody to make
Hey they gave a guy who’s done 12 so why not
Canelo won’t be defending his new title against the other champs at 175 , that I’m pretty damn sure
Bivol vs Canelo but only at 168 ( a-side chit )

Bring it on

Canelo Alvarez vs. David Benavidez for Cinco de Mayo 2020! MAN UP!

So odd how not that long ago Canelo was saying he needed time to grow from 155 to 160. He literally spent yrs at 155. Now he can suddenly jump 15 pounds from 1 fight to the next and making 160 would be a tall order. Strange turn of events.
