Heres the interview:
I was listening and @15:00 The guy asks Oscar what does he think about the people saying that this fight wasn't made before now was because Canelo would loss so spectacularly it would hurt the Canelo brand. Oscar admits 2/3 years ago it would have been the case and he would have been a fool to put Canelo in with GGG when GGG was 34/35(which i dont think ODL realizes hes that age now) he was 32/33 then. He said Canelo is ambitious and wants to fight the very best but him as a promoter has to hold him back because he needed the experience.
@16:30 he asked if he got ahead of himself last may when Canelo KO'd Khan and called GGG out and Oscar said he would call tom and get ready to pick up. Oscar said Canelo got a spectacular ko and Canelo was 25 and his adrenaline was running in his veins and everybody was saying fight GGG and when Canelo called out GGG oscar said he cringed saying its not time yet and said he might have jumped the gun a bit by thats in the past and this fight couldn't come in a better time now.
