Comments Thread For: Callum Smith's Trainer: Canelo, DAZN Want The Fight!

[Jab jab boom]

35 mil for Canelo and 5 for an opponent? I thought Canelo was taking a "significant pay cut" as per Golden boy? Canelo finessed dazn for that contract worse than what Bobby Bonilla did to the Mets. This is going to go down as one of the worst guaranteed contracts in sports when all is said and done. Real boxing fans are growing tired of the nonsense and his dedicated groupie fan base will only take his subscription numbers but so far.

If I'm a Callum Smith I shut my mouth and take whatever they give me for a chance to beat Canelo.

not every opponent

someone like Golovkin would get 6, maybe even 7

Hopefully this fight does happen. Smith didn't look great vs Ryder but he was the best SMW for a lot of people before that fight. Canelo can gain the real WBA title.

Let's do this!

GGG has his own deal with DAZN, remember. And anyway, Canelo won't fight Golovkin because he doesn't like him. But oh, wait ... I forgot, GGG is 38 now. Canelo likes him again ...

5 million you say Joe, don’t lowball yourselves. You can demand anything you want to put on the fight between the two guys who beat Rocky Fielding, the PPV sales will be astronomical playing that angle.
What a plum.

ok, ok, I admit... Golovkin could even get 8

Nah, he'll be on the same pay structure as Kovalev ... $5million basic plus a $3million bonus for every year he clings on to a title belt after his 35th birthday.

GBP needs to incentivize these old boys to hang around taking punches till Canelo decides it's safe to fight them.

I hope Oscar picks Quigley

What’s funny is that these white guys are so disrespectful towards to Oscar and Goldenboy.. Oscar needs to run up on Hearn and punch him in the eye a few times.. Smith not getting $5 million.. he is delusional.. schedule a tune up fight and lets keep it moving.. Canelo vs Lemieux or Canelo vs Quig.. the Lemieux fights would be action packed
