Canelo is obviously the sport's biggest PPV star and GGG has headlined PPV's without Canelo. Golovkin's PPV's didn't do astronomical numbers but he headlined nonetheless.
Charlo and Andrade are obviously elite fighters but nowhere near as popular as Canelo and GGG.
Canelo and GGG have had two excellent fights on PPV and DAZN signed both guys with a trilogy in mind.
Would Charlo and Andrade be great opponents for Canelo and/or GGG? Of course, however DAZN wants Canelo-GGG 3 on their platform (whenever boxing comes back) and they even sweetened the pot for Canelo to get him on board.
In the meantime, Charlo and Andrade could be elevating their profiles, either by fighting each other or maybe Sergey Derevyanchenko (who GGG fought in his last fight), or Chris Eubank Jr. (who GGG was all set to fight until Eubank pulled out at the last minute, thus opening the door for Kell Brook to accept the same offer). Any combination of those fighters would due.
Either way, nobody wants to see Charlo knock out another Dennis Hogan while Andrade outboxes and stops another Luke Keeler.
