    Default Canelo now a free agent

    https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/new...en-boy-issues/

    "Canelo Alvarez a free agent as manager says he'll fight this year despite DAZN, Golden Boy issues"



    Goody.

    If this means going forward we'll have a Canelo fighting nothing but the best out there, without regards to catchweight drama, marinating, cherry picking, and all that other diva bullshit..... then I'm all for it.

    Now throw that Franchise Belt piece of shit WBC invention in the trash, and let's start taking on all comers, ala Inoue, Loma, Chocolatito, etc.

    Enough golden throne crap. Earn it.

    Oh... also fight out of Vegas once in awhile. Travel elsewhere and leave your judges behind.

    All the other big boys do it.

    We will see what he does. It’s a chance that someone of his popularity promotes himself. I’ll tell you one thing though, no other promotion is going to guarantee him anywhere near what DAZN did.

    PBC is probably the best option because they have a good pool of fighters for him to fight from 160-175

    Like who? I see Pascal in there but he's ancient and shop worn. Then again... that's how Canelo likes them.

    Benavidez looks like the only true good option in there.

    I guess you could mention Plant, but he probably couldn't hang with Canelo.

    This of course conveniently leaves out Beterbiev, who has a better shot at getting in the ring with Fury than with Canelo.

    If they were to meet before Beterbiev turns 40, he rips Canelo a new one.

    Just now found out it's already on with Plant. December 19th.

    This is a great thing, no reason not to pursue the huge fights now. So Plants first up I guess. Nice guy with some skill but he’s got nothing to keep Canelo off for too long.

    Why not David Benavidez?

    Why not fight the best?

    Sick of this shit.

    Why don’t the fans start turning on these guys..UFC puts the best in with the best.

    Canelo is fighting at 168. He isn’t going back down to 160. He also isn’t going to 175 for a beast like Beterbiev. Benavidez and Plant seem to be about the best at 168 so might as well fight them.

    He went up to 175 for damaged, exposed Kovalev. Why won't he then go up for Beterbiev? Because he hasn't turned 40 yet?
