Who is next for Canelo?

[Primo Carnera]

68 days out. There are greasy politicians who are taking notes on this roll out. Clutter the field early set the bar initially very low, have your lobbyist offer a little feigned hope and promise, let people bait and wait to the point where anything remotely not named Charlo is a 'respectable' step up. Also helps to get the fuss and reactions mostly out of the way pre announce rather than at in the moment . Man has a future in elected office after his pre retire retirement.

the timmy v keith fight also seems strangely under promoted. only about five weeks away, no all access type show or anything yet

I’m not surprised really. I don’t think it’s that big a fight. I mean Tszyu is obviously a top fighter, but Thurman is old news.
I don’t even see it being competitive.
Personally I think I would like to see Tszyu fight Crawford . Now that would be a big fight. Crawford isn’t getting any younger , so stepping up a weight may be necessary, and in my limited knowledge of the LMW division, Tszyu is probably the best around , seeing as Charlo won’t be getting back down to that weight any time soon.

the event could have had more support if they did it march first with the rugby league in town. my thing is it's pbc's first show on prime, they are really dropping the ball here with promoting it on a new platform. i personally believe that erickson lubin was probably told to step back to allow keith to take the fight for name value. timmy v bud wasn't happening in march after erickson withdrew

canelo could satisfy both the wbc & wbo mandatories with a jaime munguia fight

Adrian broner says he wanna fight canelo

Sounds like they be having trouble coming to financial terms now with Hearn . Maybe we need to take a step back and ask who's really being over paid and over guaranteed. But that can be said about so many "stars" now, and I realize it's called prizefighting. This may play out as a case example as to what happens when you toss multi millions...just an example...at an Andrade or M Garcia to fight mediocre opponents. Same applies to the Saudi lotto bags. There really are no Kings in boxing and super A side also comes with a shelf life. Meanwhile we have 101 top contenders sitting idle behind these log jams centered around the belts etc.

The wba came out to clarify that now Berlanga is only mandatory for Morrell but not Canelo. What a circus.

"Mike Tyson lashes out at Canelo Alvarez: This is a shame for boxing and for Mexico"



Add another one to the list of former fighters that are bashing Canelo. How many more indictments do we need??

What other high-profile fighters have been raked over the coals as much as Canelo?

Surely this can't all be coincidental. Nor can it be some kind of conspiracy against Ginger. This is a groundswell of public opinion on Canelo from some very knowledgeable and experienced people, including ex-boxers.

What other champion, Mexican or otherwise, has gotten this much hate for blatantly avoiding another fighter, while maintaining he's "the best"??

Every time one of these new criticisms surfaces, I can't keep from grinning from ear to ear. Ginger is getting what he richly deserves.

I know he doesn't give a shit. He's rich beyond his wildest dreams.

But might as well forget all that deluded ATG bullshit. Nobody's buying.

just the usual negotiations. canelo has got to a point where he can demand the guarantees he wants. dazn have the right not to invest in those demands. i see it as a good thing & maybe a slight correction of over paying for fights nobody wants. david b has one fight left on his contract with pbc, so i'm good with jaime being next in line, unless david m wants to cross the proverbial street but still being with pbc i don't see that happening next. canelo v jaime is a good fight & will do big business

[TIC]

rumour is that pbc could still be in the mix to do canelo v jaime on prime
