    Why would that mean Plant didn't want the Canelo smoke when literally part of that deal would have been to have these two face off in May? As Jake Donavan mentioned and others, PBC wasn't going to put on two PPVs in a two week span. And December 19 is a no go already for networks with the college football conference championships and two NFL games. He would have ended up fighting a lower level guy like Dirrell or something probably on regular SHO.

    Canelo made the correct decision to turn that down and instead go after Smith. He can fight Plant in May of 2021 if he doesn't take on GGG.
    Bro, if you’re the b-side there is no excuse or reason to offer a 2 fight deal. Canelo is his own boss and if he takes a loss on the PPV, that’s on him. Plant should just get a guaranteed as the B-Side and that’s that

      No, the loss would be on PBC and Haymon. Who exactly would be putting the PPV on? And then this PPV would impact Spence/DSG numbers and that would be another loss. Haymon would be the one on hook to paying Canelo and Plant.

      And Plant isn't the one offering a two fight deal lol.

        Coward? Is reading comprehension a struggle with you? If you had read the article you’d have seen PBC/Haymon never approached him.

          Did you read the article either? I swear public education and reading comprehension must not be mandatory on these boards before opening your suck. He wasn’t approached by PBC with numbers simpleton. It’s like it never made phase one of negotiations. Get it? Hmmm?

            hmm this is awkward. You asked him if he can read yet Plant literally says in the article that there wasn't any offer.
            "It wasn’t like they came to me with an offer even though I had an idea what I could make off a fight like that. But it’s not like they came to me and said, ‘This is what you’re gonna make.’ It wasn’t detailed, just a potential thing"

              several of your posts consistently make h0m0sexual references. It seems as if this is a theme that consumes your thoughts quite often. It very much explains why you're so creepily defensive of Canelo to the point of obsession. Just some food for thought.

                  They would revisit this fight. They just didn’t have enough time to sell it on PPV. They would do that after the smith fight. PPV on FOX

                    Plant really wants to fight Canelo, Plant claims he will beat Canelo. But that is 2 strikes now. 2 times Canelo has come knocking and 2 times he has been turned away.

                    I understand there are reasons, again, but when is the porridge going to be just right for Caleb? And when I say Caleb I mean Al Haymon seeing as it sounds like the fighter has no say in the matter.

                      I didn't say who was avoiding. I was just making a point that no offer was made to plant and if you read the article you'd see plant said it was canelo who didn't approve.
