    Default Why not tease Loma/Linares fake negotiations?

    Amazed there hasn't been a thread about this.

    They offered Linares the fight but only on May 12th, the day of the replay of Canelo/GGG. Bob said "they can move the replay" hahaha

    The Linares camp response, we can't go against HBOs replay as I am an HBO fighter. Literally cannot, no choice involved. Said they would be willing to do it that date on HBO for more money or else literally any other date.

    Bob's reply. They should break their contract and take less money for the good of the sport, to be viewed by more people.

    Can't make this nonsense up. And now they negotiate with Beltran, I'm sure everyone is so surprised hahaha.

    I'm pretty sure Beltran was the plan all along. Pity as both fighters really seemed to want the fight.

    Maybe they are just playing the long game. Get Loma another pos WBO trinket and unify Linares. Both Easter and Beltran are coming off fights that can easily see rematches. Either way Loma is seemingly coming to a point where he'll have to keep going up.

    Linares is a good fight for Loma. Beltran is not. I get that he is a belt holder now but there really is no reason why Linares shouldn’t be next.

    I can see them wanting to get Loma a trinket at 135. They may even try to boost Verdejo by giving him a shot at Beltran. Will Beltran's cuts be healed in time for May 12?

    Healed only in spirit. Bet dollar to donuts they'll be opened within 2,3 rounds. His legs and the way he stiffened up was a seriously bad omen leading to a Loma thrashing.

    and scarum Arum wants ppv for it?
