      Makes me wonder if part of the settlement was he would fight as a free agent on Dazn for his next under Hearn. Interesting for sure I’m glad biggest star in boxing is not tied down to a network now tho it’s good for the sport. Maybe someone could fill me in everything I’ve read hasn’t confirmed it will be on Dazn in the USA has it?

        It sounds like Dazn wasn’t approving a fight period during the pandemic even if it was GGG.

          Canelo had accepted less last time. Due to the pandemic.

          DAZN still didn't approve Callum Smith as a "premier" opponent.

          Now that they severed the relationship between Canelo and Oscar they do approve, though?

            I love it when LDBC kids complain even after Canelo has left GBP. They wanted Canelo to align with master Haymon. Mexican Bidness all day errrday!

              The LDBC kids are upset that Canelo fought the Cotto Bros. and now the Smith Bros.

              Charlo should’ve accepted Oscar’s offer long ago, but Charlo turned it down and told Mannix that his “team” felt the money wasn’t right! But the LDBC kids will continue saying “Canelo ducks Charlo.” It’s basically the mindset of LDBC kids whom love to steal candy and Cheetos from gas stations

                Pretty sure Smith isn’t even in camp bro. No way he makes 168 in 5 weeks. I’ll see what I can find out today.

                  He accepted less for kebab guy, not BJS or Smith.

                  Maybe at that time he wasn't prepared to take less bcs he wanted a split with Oscar. He knew that Oscar was the one who would've pulled the shortest end if it went to court.

                    I know he has a tall frame but does usually cut a lot of weight before a fight? Even if not,I dont see Callum jumping on the opportunity with only 5weeks,cant blame him if he hasn't been in the gym. Be interesting hear what you find out.

                      It’s not exactly easy for him to make 168, if the money’s good enough, I suppose he could probably do it although it would likely be a struggle and could effect his performance.
