    Hearn says he turned down the Canelo fight.

    Golden Boy says it would have been a career high payday for Smith. 3-4x more than he usually makes.

    Golden Boy is saying all of the things Hearn says when Hearn makes a lowball offer and it's turned down.

    Now that the shoe is on the other foot, how will the Hearn fans react?

    Personally, I think Hearn did the right thing turning down Canelo's offer.

    But for all of the Hearn fans who insist you should always accept a career high payday, what do they say now?

            Can't find a single reference to this anywhere.

            One good thing about Hearn... he'll talk about it.

              It's better than Jake Paul vs KSI or Logan Paul vs Antonio Brown though.

                I think Smith should have taken it but it's his choice at the end of the day.

                  Just found the Boxing News 24 article. Sounds like BS to be honest saying Hearn didn't advise Smith of the offer, and certainly doesn't include any Hearn quotes... ie it's the opposite of the OP's thread title.

                    Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya said super middleweight titleholder Callum Smith is an "idiot" for turning down a May 2 fight against Canelo Alvarez, the middleweight world champ and a secondary super middleweight titleholder.


                    Hes talking about this. But it doesn't say anything other than the obvious that they are likely still negotiating but who knows
