Comments Thread For: Canelo Sues DAZN, Golden Boy, De La Hoya For Breach of Contract

[factsarenice]

Hopefully he does pull a Mayweather and starts to promote himself and fight who he wants. I have doubted him recently in the last few years but if he can get away from GBP and DAZN and start fighting who the fans want to see him fight then he will have regained some stock.

Who is he going to fight that's not with DAZN? What promoter will guarantee Canelo 30 million? Heck, What promoter will guarantee Canelo 7 million? Where are these opportunities going to come from?

$365M was dumb then, it's dumb now. Pretty pathetic all around.

Uh oh. Well there goes at least a third of DAZN's scripts. A blind man could've smelled this a mile away. They were trying to put Nelo in with an a$$ beater, like Andrade or Jermall. I like that his counselor asked that he be able to fight outside of GBP while in litigation. Smart move bc Nelo can get across the street and get a good challenge, namely Caleb Plant.

That's a one off fight and a breach of contract, Canelo loses that lawsuit hands down.

Daaaayum! Canelo looking to cash OUT!

He's like, "f" boxing. I'm collecting without having to fight and we outtie.

I've gone over this again and again and I come to the same conclusion. If he's not cashing out he's trying to renegotiate and that's possible. If he follows through with the suit he's done, he'll never fight real competition again, it's a cash out.

If he promotes himself he gets paid directly. How do you think Mayweather was able to make so much off his fights?

It does indeed all go back to that snake oil salesman Eddie Hearn who came to the USA acting like the first horseman of the apocalypse. Insulting American fighters who didn’t sign with him, talking about putting everyone out of business, with that “ppv is dead” (while using the Ppv
Model in the uk), talking about his billion dollar chest, and the....dum dum dum dum!!! “American takeover!” Lol....and the spotty face amateurs at dazn just ate it up. I hope blavatnik fires them all for losing hundreds of millions of dollars on dazn USA

Blavatnik actually promoted Simon Denyer. Denyer no longer runs dazn, James Rushton does. Denyer's in a different department for Access.

this is james rushton

eddie doesnt deal with canelo, oscar does. that had nothing to do with eddie.
when hbo backed out of it..dazn had the chance to sign Canelo, they took it..and got goldenboy and their archives with it.

[rckdees]

Said it when they signed him to that ridiculous contract that he wasn’t worth it......signed him on potential instead of performance....people aren’t going to keep paying for bs fights

[factsarenice]

STOP RIGHT THERE...DAZN added Andrede, Charlo and Billy Joe Saunders to Canelo's approved list, not Canelo. The truth is that Canelo said NO to Andrade not DAZN. Look it up, it's all there.

Let me stop you right there. DAZN didn't even approve Demetrius Andrade as an opponent for Canelo.

And Andrade is a DAZN fighter!

Boo Boo must feel like crap that his own network blocked him from getting a money fight.

Canelo was Golden Boy / Oscar nothing to do with Hearn.

The only fighter I remember Hearn insulting was the Bronze Bummer and he was proved right on that one.

Nope. Coppinger whom represents the Athletic specifically and recently stated that DAZN did not approve Andrade as a Premier fighter. Andrade is a Champion. What are we even debating... They didn’t approve BJS, Smith as premium opponents.
