    Canelo fights twice a year, being a free agent would be his Best option. Plenty of times between fights to have the networks bid for his services

      That’s true

      Yea I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re pushing for that.

        In the last week reports are that DAZN are speaking with Canelo’s legal directly. DAZN now knows the full circumstances. If DAZN was truly impervious without collusion with GBP, then the empathy makes even more sense.

        Let’s see what DAZN offers Canelo.

        As others have said and I since the beginning, Canelo’s been getting his pay before Covid happened: Fielding (non premier) - $17mil, Jacobs and Kovalev; $35mil.

        Showtime would have to guarantee Canelo a minimum of what plus PPV upside? That’s risky for Canelo. If Canelo doesn’t make what he was making at DAZN it will seem awkward.

        DAZN has been to best engine tech to promote fighters.

        Industry has been too lazy to give circumstance about Covid. Ironically, Covid somewhat brought out the beast from within the contracts
        If possible. Canelo should ditch GBP and that fool Oscar, then sign with Matchroom USA.

          I wrote that last week. It would be a startling revelation if Matchroom USA got a budget that enabled Hearn to make a multi deal for Canelo.

          However, I don’t think Canelo would want that. You know why? Because GGG Promotions is solo. So DAZN would have a hard time justifying... and I think Canelo would be given a bigger equity option. GGG Promotions is copromoted by Matchroom USA because realistically he needs it

              The thing is even if another network pay him enough money to secure broadcasting rights, They’re still only going to accept a certain fights to recoup the money.

              It’s not charity. So the same problems will arise.

                I disagree Hearn is a nobody in the states no way canelo would go that route.

                  They might have to pay off DAZN to break the contract. DAZN might finally get a return on Canelo LOLLL

                    I think he'll stay.
                    what current deal with dazn? the one where they’re trying to pay him in worthless stock?

                      Outside of hardcore boxing fans and Mexican Americans, Canelo is also a nobody in the states.
