    Andy Ruiz just went across the street and whipped Anthony Joshua's ass.

    You saw all the fame and money that followed. Until he ate himself into Bolivian.

    But to do that you have to be willing to take a risk. You can't be scared. Choosing to fight easier opponents for far less money is the coward's way.

    And it goes against everything that fans pay their hard-earned money to watch.

      Which just proves my point that B-sides cross the street, A-sides don't. Ruiz won by knockout, which is what you usually have to do when you cross the street for a one off.

      I'll give you kudos for the Tyson reference. Well done.

      A-sides aren't in the business of taking big risks. They have the leverage. If Charlo fights Andrade, it should be Andrade crossing the street. If Charlo fights Canelo, it should be Charlo crossing the street. That's how boxing works.

      What if Tom Brown offered Canelo 50 million to fight Charlo on Fox PPV? It's way more than he's currently making on DAZN. Is the onus on Canelo to cross the street to fight Charlo just because Tom Brown made a big offer? No. That's not how boxing works.

        Both of these guys' careers need a marquee fight so bad that they should probably fight each other for free.

            What I'm saying is this is a career high pay day by far for Charlo so he should take it.
            If Charlo can convince Al Haymon to offer more money to Andrade for him to cross the street then he should take it too...
            But i don't see Al Haymon offering more money than Eddie Hearn...
            That's all im saying...
            He can do what D.Wilder did & make his stock go up....eddie aint offering more money either, he's pinching pockets & selling dreams, the man can't get Boo Boo fights from his own stable & network

            You guys just WANT to believe eddie will cough up the bucks.

              Its a good close fight that Boo Boo can pull off by boxing on the outside.

                I just wanna see them fight. It's a great fight between them that they both need.
                Who's the A or B side is of no interest to me.
                I just wanna see them fight and Charlo is being offered a career high pay day and he should take it.
                Fox PPV they can make more.

                  Is Charlo's side willing to pay Andrade $7 million to cross the street? If not then they aren't the financial A-side in this equation.

                  Of course Canelo should take the $50 million if it was offered to him. He is contractually tied to DAZN, though.

                  Charlo on the other hand is supposedly his own boss.

Not a fan of his antics with Deontay Wilder, but Hearn has consistently thrown good deals at PBC fighters. I hope some business can get done so we can see some good fights.
                    The fighters say the numbers are close but eddie doesn't want to budge.

                      He ate himself into a whole new nationality? Damn, it was worse than I thought.
