Comments Thread For: DAZN Won't Approve Avni Yildirim As Canelo Alvarez's Next Opponent

[Satir]

The ''face of boxing'' had chosen Berto for the prestigious ''49-0'' bout while VERBALLY patronizing Muhammad Ali or Marciano with comparison. Floyd had the WBA Super 154. Why didn't he fight Lara when there was a narrative that Lara beat Canelo? The point is, since nobody brings that up, cherry picking to hate on Canelo without holding general ''face of boxing'' standards doesn't matter. You just said if Canelo ''fights his mandos.'' So if Yildirim were a mando it'd be fine? Just like GGG'S Szeremeta?

Mayweather has been and still is heavily criticised for the Berto fight, and Canelo fighting his mandatory is just a wish, he's never fought and i doubt ever will fight his mandos

The WBC are a disgrace for sanctioning this fight for the vacant belt. The question is - why have you sanctioned it!

A boxer can send in request but you do not have to accept that request, Isn't smith the WBC Diamond beltholder at 168? Am glad DAZN turned their noses up on that fight.

Exactly. There's Smith with the Diamond belt and the likes of Jacobs and Dirrell in the top five of their rankings. I'm not even sure how Yildrim has the top spot anyway, his last fight was a loss for the vacant title.

They should have a box off between the top ranked guys with the last two standing (Jacobs and whoever else) fight for the title.

It honestly wouldn't surprise me if they did a U-turn and ordered Chavez Jr vs Roamer Angulo instead lol

Just go ahead and fight Callum Smith or "Boo Boo" Andrade! Can't see what the problem is???

DAZN is taking a hard line with Canelo. I guess it is refreshing to see but it also suggests their financial situation is really bad.

I wonder how long they stay together?

[Nash out]

Fully agree. Yildrim made Eubank JR look like Sugar Ray Leonard mixed with Deontay Wilder. Canelo had his DAZN soft touch in Fielding, he ain't getting another one.

Seems to me like DAZN is in violation of their contract with Canelo.

They don't want to pay him the money they agreed to unless he fights Golovkin. Yet they won't force Golovkin to fight him, allowing him to face trash like Szeremeta instead.

Exactly clear race is at play here.. Race will come up in the lawsuit against DAZN.

1)Yes, Plant did turned down the Canelo fight

2)Yes, Jermell admits his brother ducked Canelo https://*************/watch?v=vSzw5g2WNKk

3)Just like when Mayweather said he wouldn’t fight anymore black fighters, Canelo has said the same thing about raza. That’s why he ain’t calling out Munguia or Benavidez.

4)Canelo will be a 4 division champ like it or not the WBC wants it that way, And New!!!

5)Only DUMWITS give a fook how other people feel about a fighter you too emotional might be best to step back a bit and figure out what really matters in life

1. Are you serious? He clearly states at 3.30 he never got an offer. Do you even know what an offer is? 2. I don't even know what that video is. 1 Charlo says I'd never turn down a Canelo fight and the rest is some guy talking about his sources, but ok. 3. I don't remember mayweather saying he'd never fight another black fighter but I do recall him fighting Judah, and mosley and berto and many others. That's just excuse number 5 from you as to why Canelo never said benavidez name. Benavidez isn't even really Mexican. He's from Arizona and probably doesn't even speak Spanish well. Foh. 4. Wait and see if the fight gets made. He's a dazn's employee. Either way, it's a cheap title shot so real fans know what it is. He won't get any real credit for that... Except from his blinded by love groupies like you. 5. Your entire reason for debating with me is because you love Canelo and I don't. So you give a lot of f**ks about how others feel about Canelo because you're dedicating your life to defending him against any and all who offend his honor. Here's the props I'll give you, your groupie level status has now reached level 4. Level 5 is the final level and it's when you admit that you fantasize about being with Canelo. You're already there, you're just not admitting it out loud.

Race how? Canelo is white as snow

Canelo must Face Bivol

Bivol said He is willing to go down in weight to whip Canelo's ass.
I believe is a fantastic chance for them to meet at 168.
