Honestly who cares...Smith looked awful vs Ryder last fight and clearly lost...would be a sh.it pick from Canelo right now...and if Canelo and co. offered him close to $8 million he should have been all over it...boxing as a business is so ****** sometimes.Comment

Golden Boy says it was 3-4x what Callum Smith normaly makes.
Hearn admits they turned it down.
Where are all the Hearn fans that usually insist all career high paydays must be immediately accepted?Comment

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.
Hearn told ESPN he did receive an offer for the fight from Golden Boy "that we didn't accept."Comment

“Hearn fans”...lolGolden 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?Comment

Callum Smith and Joe Gallagher will decide whether to accept the offer or not. Eddie Hearn is not Al Haymon. Eddie's fighters are his clients, not his ******.https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/...canelo-alvarez

How much credit will Canelo get if he fights and beats Smith? He beat Fielding whom everyone thinks was a sht fight, and Rocky beat Ryder and Ryder beat Smith.Comment

If it was a decent offer than Smith is an idiot. Canelo is one of the highest profile fighters in the game. " No thanks, i'll stick with the John Ryder's of the world". Bad decision!Comment

Difference is with canelo these guys know they can’t beat him so hey rather aim as high as they can to see if they can get it if not they rather fight for lesss money as long as they keep that 0.Comment
