    Something feels really off about the "big" announcement. So the fights are still free in Mexico...well ok. It came off like a two parter but still waiting on the other shoe to drop as far as opponent. Wondering if it fell through or just hasn't been set yet. Canelo is a master at the string along. At the point where if it's not Benavidez then I'm not hard pressed for it. Can't fight guys out of your division forever Canelo.

    Said it before, an undisputed champion has an obligation to defend against division top and mandatory challengers. Especially when you have two labeled champs in your own house.

    there are rumours, not from the best sources that canelo's guarantee hasn't been put into an escrow account yet & canelo gave them an extention, that is why no opponent was announced

    So Canelo fights on TV free in Mexico? That is why he is huge and a mainstream start there.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Now the chatter is no Benavidez in 2024, depending on who ya trust. So no Bud, Charlo or Benavidez.

    Bring on Berlanga ffs . You'd think the 'face of boxing' would have it figured less than 90 days out. It's probably Charlo..

    Oh PLEEEEEASE..... not Berlanga.

    That's all I need. For Canelo to feast on an overhyped Puerto Rican and get an undeserved spot on the storied PR-Mexico rivalry. I'm not a Berlanga fan, and honestly wish he'd just go away and keep cutting records and shit. I don't think he's dedicated enough. Whatever happened to Mungia? I know Canelo says "no Mexicans", but I'm sure he'd make an exception for Munguia, knowing full well he poses no danger to him. No... the only acceptable opponent here is Benavidez. But we all know that's NOT gonna happen. It's not in the Hollywood script.

    I honestly hope you're right. I'd hate to see him face Canelo. Easy pickings for the red-headed diva.

    Yeh he's playing games a bit with the "it's an American" thing. The whole announcement was bait and switch so as expected fans follow along. The inner hopeful non cynical fan in me that remains says you simply do not bleed out and string along a major fight announcement unless it's a major fight. At this point announcing a Charlo would be universally booed off the stage...surely. Munguia would be fun but is more Dollar General compared to Benavidez. Time for the King and face of boxing to sac up.

    canelo can basically do whatever he likes at this stage of his career, similar to how floyd ended his. i'd be okay if it's a shit opponent in may if there's a big fight guarantee for september. i was thinking he could fulfil the ibf mandatory against william scull but he's not american. please don't give us boo boo or caleb part two

    I'm going to need to go a little apples and oranges. But oddly, who wasn't roasting Mayweather also? I sure was. But at least he had a belt or two taken away and announced Berto was the last official hurrah. And the honest fan in me says Benavidez gives Canelo a much much tougher fight than say a early Thurman would have given Mayweather. Can't bring myself to defend Floyd but Canelo was no Mayweather. Canelo is literally wearing a crown and called full undisputed, keeper of all belts he chooses not to defend in the respected division as of late.

    And still no opponent named for his May "big" fight. We're now far under 90 days out and that is insane to me. But I guess these are the times we live in now as fans.

    there is also a rumour that pbc have offered canelo a guaranteed fifty five million to fight david benavidez on may fourth. it is said if the offer is declined david b will take the fight at light-heavy against oleksandr.

    it should be made aware that sampson lewkowicz claimed last year that a fight between david b & david morrell was signed
