Comments Thread For: DAZN Seeks to Lock in Canelo vs Golovkin

Sounds good. Cmon man, nobody trying to watch boring ass Saunders face Canelo.

Golovkin fights were unclear and they need to settle this.

Canelo has said he doesn't care if he ever fights GGG again because he accomplished what he wanted and GGG doesn't represent a challenge only represents a financial gain if he fights him again. Meaning he is not going to fight GGG because his contract doesn't say he has to and he doesn't want to give GGG another payday off his back. But if DAZN comes in and sweetens the pot then it makes sense for Canelo. Money is the issue getting Saunders done. If DAZN comes in and allocates additional money for Saunders and for Canelo in Sept I bet this get's done. Canelo will get paid more then his 35M guarantee to again beat GGG up Mexican Style and this time send him into retirement. I think Canelo either knocks out GGG probably to the body or breaks his face even worse this time and his corner stops the fight. And GGG fans continuing crying making excuses and say he was just old. LMAO

I dont know how much GGG has left, but sure, why not? Maybe do it at 168........

Doesnt want anything to do with andrade tho

Really?? But so many people keep saying Canelo is ducking the trilogy

Can’t have it both ways

You know how it goes Canelo's haters will go from he's ducking a trilogy to he is just cherry picking a old GGG the moment this fight is made and claim he is now ducking someone else. lol

The first two were stinkers IMO but it's a bad look for Canelo since he said he'd never fight him again and then Golovkin has a tougher than expected fight last time out and suddenly at 38 he's worthy again? Hmmmm.

[Green Trees]

Canelo has already said flat out hes not interested in a 3rd fight. Thread/

The second fight was amazing. It's just that these two have granites chin, and no one resulted damaged and no KDs happened. But it was a tremendous fight.

Who’s asking for Canelo V GGG III. I’m with Canelo. Why fight GGG again?

DAZN has a problem going forward they are guaranteeing 35M for Canelo no matter who he fights because he drives the subscribers but for his opponents only so much money. And the amount for his opponents asking price has become inflated. When Dervy was being discussed DAZN was forcing Canelo to pay the additional money from his own purse to pay Dervy. The additional money Saunders is asking for has to either come out Canelo's pocket or Golden Boy's pocket. DAZN coming in saying let's sign a deal to fight GGG in sept we will expand the budget to pay Saunders and pay you more money to fight GGG. That sounds fine to land the GGG fight and they make up money in that big fight. But after GGG lesser fighters will now ask for the same amount of money Saunders is getting. DAZN is literally bidding against themselves continuing to set precedent for how much B side fighters demand.

Dervy who never made more then half a mil asked 6-7M because Jacobs got 11M. Kovalev asked for 12M because of Jacobs purse. Saunders asking for 9-10M and turned down 7M because Kovalev got 12M. If Saunders get's say 8M in this deal to land a GGG fight. After GGG how much is Charlo going to demand 20M? DAZN has to reset the market price and start putting their foot down on ridiculous asking prices. None of these fighters can make even half these crazy prices fighting anyone else on any other network. But they keep asking based on the last overprice DAZN gave.
