Would Canelo be DAZN's top asset and big at box office if he had a 48-6-3 record and no titles?

Definitely wouldn’t be Dazn’s top asset if he wasn’t one of the best lol. Not every close fight is an automatic loss though he clearly beat Jacobs. Floyd could have got a loss vs Castillo the first time, could have been disqualified vs Judah too.

 

Well if he'd have lost to Trout he never would have fought Mayweather
If he'd have lost to Lara he wouldn't have fought Cotto, and so then wouldn't have thought GGG or then Jacobs

So no he wouldn't be

 

The whole issue is that at the end of it all, the could go either way and robbery decisions in a fighter's advantage will get mentioned, but historically the paper decision is what counts.

Just look at Muhammad Ali.

 

Ali was past prime for all of his bad decisions, and there weren't as many

 

But it has given him the opportunity to secure his biggest win of his career, and a large part of his eventual legacy and perception.

 

Records dont matter. Live gates, PPV sales, ratings and media exposure does.

 

After Floyd. Canelo is the chosen one.

 

I honestly don't think your record affects your box office status

Brock Lesnar had huge ufc numbers win or loss
Ronda Rousey still one of the biggest fighters in the world
Fedor Emelianenko one of the biggest draws in mma history
Pacman huge following

Problem with Canelo is that his steriod allegations have clouded his reputation with the public and his idiot handler Oscar has done more to tarnish Canelo's career than guide it correctly.

 

The only bona fide win he has there was he did shade Dannny Jacobs he lost the others

 

great as Ali was dont forget we were robbed of 3 1/2 years
of his prime for purely political reasons just think what he could have been without that unfair ban

 

Floyd lost to Maidana too, should have been DQ'D against Ortiz. Can you just imagine Cortez counting out Floyd had it been reversed lol no way in hell lol. May/Pac should have been changed to a N/C after the IVGate scandal too

 

I think he'd be a bigger draw had he officially lost to Lara and GGG.

I sat next to a guy during Canelo vs Jacobs who said, "If it goes to the cards we all know Canelo wins." He was there for the event, not the fight.
