Jacobs wouldn't happen for the next several years and Jacobs would need to beat a Charlo or Andrade to make fighting Canelo a mega fight. Heck if Hurd moves up that would be an option for Canelo as well due to more entertainment value than Jacobs. I like Jacobs a lot however monetarily Golden Boy has far too many better options.

Then again, they could just be saying this to attract GGG to DAZN. He's still the second biggest name in the Middleweight division and still the biggest fight for Canelo. Even if they don't want it next year, they can tempt him.
It's better to have GGG on your network than not.
I think it is unrealistic to expect Canelo to fight Jacobs AND GGG back to back. Usually if you fight one high level fight like that, the other fight is going to be a bit easier. Jacobs to GGG is f'n brutal but Canelo may do it who knows.
The thing is DAZN can't afford to lose Canelo regardless so just how much does GBP give a damn about what DAZN wants? Unless he gets more money if he fights certain fighters or if they reach a certain subscriber base? You give someone a 10 fight deal plus additional one that just happened, you are giving away some of your leverage. I remember when Mayweather got his six fight deal there was criticism that they invested too many fights to him, and that's damn near half of what Canelo got with DAZN.

Wanting and getting are two different things Eddie Hearn.. I knew this was going to happen they were going to try and influence canelo's fights because of the large contract signing but DLH and Canelo are going to call the shots
