Canelo’s short list

[Rotten Apple]

Hearn has confirmed that they turned the Alvarez fight down. Which pretty much says it all. When a fighter turns down a fight in which he will make 4 times more than he has ever made, than he doesn't really want the fight.

Can't really blame Callum. Probably re-watch Alvarez whipping Liam's ass and thought better of it

As far as Saunders is concerned, if he wants it, he should take whatever he’s offered. He hasn’t earns the right to demand silly money.
Smith is a diffferent thing altogether. Everybody making a big thing about the Ryder fight, which was a very bad day at the office. But apart from that , he’s a very credible opponent, but let’s be honest GBP Will stack it so he has no chance. No way would he get a decision over there, and Canelo won’t get KO’d, no way will Canelo come here and why should he.
I think that’s what Smith means by getting paid to take an L.

Kindly refer to the following:

Truth is, as "Franchise Champion" Canelo can do whatever he wants and fights whomever he wants whenever he wants. No demands... no conditions. So basically he's free to make ridiculous offers to those he'd rather not fight, and more palatable offers to the others.

To the "whatever", "whomever", and "whenever", I didn't add "wherever" because it's engraved in stone that Canelo will never leave the friendly confines of Vegas/Texas/Southern Cal.

Again, does anybody remember any fighter that turned down a payday against Mayweather or Pacquiao? I don’t. So why does it seem that people are constantly turning down Canelo?

There is one fighter who has been calling out Canelo which is Andrade. Both are DAZN. Canelo won’t go down to middleweight to fight him though. There is just no reason for Saunders or Smith to turn down a Canelo fight unless the negotiations were extremely unfair. And shouldn’t we applaud them for that? Kind of like the GGG drama. He basically put his career on hold for Canelo instead fighting the best because of the money. We complained about that, so we should be happy about people turning him down.

Bad look for Smith, that is highly disappointing. Of course they know the deck will be stacked for any cash cow Canelo showdown but many a fighter would kill to roll those dice. Now if he goes out next and unifies with Plant or Benavidez I'll want to see those equally. Who knows what's going on behind the scenes and strings attached on offers though. It sort of feels in an odd way that Canelo has hit his ceiling, certainly having a time finding a note worthy dance partner.

He fought in New York 2 fights ago

To fight whom?

Yeah... that's right... Rocky Fielding.

Let me be more specific.

Canelo will never leave the friendly confines of Vegas/ Texas/ Southern Cal, UNLESS........... he spots a weak, lame zebra that has strayed off from the herd.

Rocky Fielding certainly fit that description.
