Its embarrassing for Nelo to pretend to want to fight Kova then not make real offer

The bold: Nice comment there.

Would you consider Jacobs and GGG live bodies? Fighters must have rest due. Canelo is a veteran. As a fan over the years, he's overachieved. I'm proud to be a fan.

Retiring wouldn't be a bad idea.

Nelo is in his 2 fights a year stage. That's plenty of rest time. I'm also a Nelo fan but would hate to see him in with Non Deservers.


I keep reading about how old GGGeriatric is....

He could/should retire at the end of this contract.

Its hilarious to me that the author of this thread like countless others is trying to find any way to spin it that canelos a pssy for offering Kovalev several mil & theres been no talk of a cw either but surely it would be a 10 lb 2nd day weigh in if there was a clause

I literally lol when I read these posts from ppl like him then this same guys going to be the 1st defending ggg vs some low level t.b.a.(he already did just that when nelo challenged jacobs & despite him calling canelo a weight bully coward who belongs at lhw,this Boxing logic clown still complained about weight despite Jacobs blowing off weigh in & despite it being merely the same exact 2nd day weigh in Jacobs has been doing as IBF champion.)

Theres only charlo & andrade at mw right now who are viable threats in some ppls eyes & hardly any money in it not to mention it would lose DAZN more money either way,& while I'm not against either of those fights,Canelo is yet again taking major risks by challenging Kovalev the most decorated at lhw by far & someone who is consensus looked at as infinitely more dangerous than booboo or charlo.

Its absolutely retárded for anyone who hates canelo to prefer he faces anyone besides Kovalev because kov has much better chance at koing canelo & in a new weightclass where tiny mexicans have never ventured,hell even zurdos bumslaying ass stayed away from Kovalev & barely jumped to lhw.

If zurdo had offered to face Kovalev it would've surely been made as mandatory by wbo because zurdo was WBO beltholder at smw & therefore gets 1st dibs if he wasn't such a cherrypicking pssy

Nothing really to add except I'm ''patient'' enough to see who Nelo picks.....But Sept is right there

Hopefully Lemieux as a tune up for Smith.

Lemmy would get the Kirkland treatment

Nelo has to get with it, though.

It's definitely questionable and adds to the "is he doing this to create an aura of invincibility?" feel. Like GG calling out Ward. I hope he's being sincere.

[Curt Henning]

remember when lil g pretended to want to fight ward but then literally ran for kell brook and dom wade that year after telling ward "NO" within a half hour or ward reaching out to team lil g? yeah i do

[Blond Beast]

You're an idiot! It's not Canelo's problem that Kovalev has to pay Yarde a step aside fee. It's not Canelo's problem if Kovalev has to pay Bob Arum or ESPN for being allowed to fight on DAZN...
Canelo offered Kovalev a career high purse. If Kovalev has to pay off people to be able to fight Canelo well that's not Canelo's problem!
WTF is wrong with idiots like you??!
Canelo isn't out to be giving out handouts,... He's offering career high purses to fighter's to accept the fight against him!
Not his problem if they owe other people....

Well if Canelo thought Kovalev would jump at that offer, I guess he figured wrong. Kind of a Paradox. Wonder why boxing matches are so hard to negotiate? The first offer is always the best.

shhhhh..... are you crazy ?

you can't throw truth-bombs around here

some crazy fanboy mod will strip your greenK to try shame you

oh, right..... never mind

bomb away LMAO

yep..... I remember the situation you described REALLY well

I wonder what excuses this thread starter made to justify that embarrassing debacle?

Nah it’s more like when Ward was saying after his retirement i’d Like end it at Heavyweight, was my fathers dream etc... if it makes financial sense to tc...

All while Usyk was forming to be Undisputed in the WBSS. I think Ward too would’ve beaten Bellew at Heavyweight.

Still... you compare a career high pay OFFER for Kova to GGG “wanting Ward.”

Redd Foxx is an obvious Canelo hater. PBC shillery

Well if they don't accept a career high purse for a Canelo fight then that just means someone else will get lucky and get the pay day.
That simple. Canelo has no shortage of opponents so who really misses out???
