That’s of course if he keeps winning. Minimum Guarantees of $10mil is what’s up.
Canelo’s value and longevity is worth more to networks than Pacquiao or Wilder. I say them because PAC made a guaranteed minimum of $10mil for Thurman and Wilder made about the same for Ortiz 2. Breazeale as well? This is without including the PPV’s
Therefore, with Canelo bringing in the Mexican PPV buys which many acknowledge as a safe bet, the networks would easily give Canelo $10mil guarantees. However I think Canelo would earn $15mil depending on the network.
Let’s go in the middle and say Canelo gets $12mil. $22.5mil for 300k buys. $11mil halfed. Canelo takes 85% PPV. Canelo makes 8-9mil off PPV.
$12 mil guarantee + 8mil = $20mil which is more than DAZN’s $17mil (50% cut) plus no bureaucratic mess of approvals between promoters etc.
This is what I meant that DAZN didn’t want to headline a counter offer for the press, between 50% cut and Canelo’s 30% acknowledgement.
Canelo would’ve made $23.8mil if DAZN accepted his 30% cut but there’s still conflict of interest politics due to Matchroom and GBP “approvals”
So as we can see, Canelo will still be earning good money without DAZN, and if the pandemic continues, reduction in earnings would still be consistent.
I think all promoters like that Canelo is now a free agent.
A lot of fans are confused with the Fielding evaluation. Canelo only got $17mil for that introductory fight. If you want to say “nobody knew who Fielding was” doesn’t make any sense for meritocratic earning. The same Canelo haters who say this make fun of Liam Smith. But Canelo made $300k buys for Smith.
Canelo earned $3.5 mil guarantee and total with PPV earned $10mil. Since then Canelo beat GGG, Khan, Chavez with close to 4mil PPVs overalls. This is what the networks evaluate and since Smith’s win Canelo’s resume and accomplishments easily created the $17mil for Fielding. That’s how you evaluate pay grades. That was Canelo’s first appearance at MSG if I’m not mistaken and it was sold out. Promoters and networks here forward evaluate Canelo’s drawing power in NY or Texas venues, not just Vegas.
So as you can see, Mexican Bidness is here to stay!
