Selling his $60 million yacht for 5.9
Hmm...
Either
a) Sunk, recovered, and has water damage
b) The "Canelo currency" is severely devalued
c) Canelo's planning an early retirement and is cashing in his assets
d) Canelo found he has an adversity to deep waters (in more ways than one)
e) Money laundering :-X

It is a metaphor for the decline and downsizing of Canelo. He was always bigger than his opponents and made the weight on his own territory. Waited for big challenge's to go old, grew up in size by eating contaminated cows, found punching power with special gloves but got too big for his boots facing a champion too strong.
Canelo ship has sailed.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
(Well... only to add that, just like Canelo's career... yes... the yacht was likely overpriced to begin with). :cool:
Bargain for anybody with a spare £5million.
couldnt resist coodja lol.... you know Lil 'Cinn is movin up to HW soon, jus waiting for his hand to heal.Quote:

It actually shows he's learning how to be sensible with money. He's getting rid of stuff like this now while he's still earning. Wait until he's retired and it's draining his income and it looks like he's giving it up because he can't afford it anymore. Lots of people can't face losing face by giving up their toys or various lifestyle stuff when their income drops and they keep it all up until it bankrupts them. This is good news for him that he's getting a handle on how to go on, or at least he has good advisors.
😆😆😆 How bout SS ClenbuterolQuote:

No crime in selling your toys for small profit. Shit I sold a Kirk Gibson card and D&D diecast miniatures for hundreds last year ;D. Closest I'll ever get to a yacht.Quote:

Very profound Birthday boy. But I think Lennon and McCartney wrote it first.Quote:

While the underlying meaning may escape some, (who might just think in nautical terms)... it wouldn't go unnoticed by boxing fans everywhere. ;D
I actually googled it to see if he was trying to make money off it and it turns out he is!Quote:

That would be three million a year but he'll only be getting a percentage of that. Some firm will be renting it and they'll be providing a crew and doing maintenance and so on. I would guess that it's only being rented less than half the time to the point that it's still costing him money to own the thing so he's getting rid of it.
Ah that's interesting, so let the coin keep coming. Like a gradual resale maybe. It really does resemble a stacked-up speed boat. Odd that some of the promotional stills still have the old name and logo.Quote:
