Canelo turned down 92/8 purse split offer to fight David Benavidez

Why are you making the basis of your posts on Canelo v Benavidez about hate? Guys like Canelo, Pac, and Mayweather are the minority. VERY few boxers ever make their type of money. Nor do many have the ability to cal their own shots.

Who said no one wants to see david fight? With that attitude, who wants to see ANY non-mainstream or PPV selling fighter fight? F*ck it, they should all retire then? Or shold any huge draw retire, since NO ONE but them is capable of brining in a high purse? I suppose Mungia is a huge draw in your mind? I mean, he must be since canelo is good with him and NOT getting 100 mill.

You honestly think Canelo getting near 60 mill for Benavidez IS NOT ENOUGH?? I really do not undertstand the train of thought that fans of huge cash cows have. It's like you live in a bubble or something.

 

Canelo is getting a guarnteed $35mill for Mungia. And near 60 mill for Benadivez was apparently not enough

 

What I'm saying is you can't tell a Canelo how much is enough when there's a fight with more money on the table out there for a lesser fighter right now. When you want a fight with someone who has ALL the leverage, you give them what they want and the fight gets made. You don't? It wont. My observation about the hater aspect is just that, it sort of justifies the weird disconnect in how many people want this fight vs how many people want to see David fight in general.

2 fights way under 100k in the biggest fights he's had say so.

 

There was more money w/ Mungia then Benavidez? You really think that??? And no....people want the top two guys to face off virtually ALL THE TIME in all divisions. When was the last time canelo faced the second best SprMW?

And yet Mungia is selling a ton better?? You keep mentioning no one wants to see David. Yet you believe Mungia is in HUGE demand??

 

The ABC organizations don't want Canelo to fight Benavidez.

If Benavidez brutalizes Canelo and take his belts, the ABC organizations will be looking at a smaller sanctioning fee... a lot smaller. They want Canelo to hold on those belts as long as possible so they can ride the cash cow.

Canelo knows this too. That's why he's ducking Benavidez and the ABCs are perfectly fine with it.

 

Canelo has his biggest fans shook

You guys are the reason Canelo WILL get his 100M+

Straight out of Money Mayweather's book.

 

If it means he fights Benavidez we don't care. No one gets shook, we all win.

 

Canelo has already lost twice. Arguably more times.its nothing new seeing Canelo looking beatable in the ring.

But he has all 4 belts and there's a very clear top contender. We probably all rate Canelo a lot higher than you as we actually want him to face his top contender.

 

Speaking of Bivol, how long has he and Beterbiev been holding titles at 175?

That's by far the biggest duck.

 

Not sure where you got any of what you're suggesting, my words are there in black and white you actually quoted them.. for one when it comes to a guy in Canelos position comparing options doesn't do anything but irritate you lol. A guy is deserving when they are. Sometimes it's sales, sometimes it's belts, sometimes it's shutting your mouth and being graceful as stupid as that sounds but ask yourself how many have gotten a fight with Canelo or Floyd for that matter trashing the guys to anyone who will listen. I'll save you the leg work, no one. They get the fight when they stfu and play ball in negotiations. It sucks for the other guy but what can you do? Those guys did the work to be in the position they are in, spoils of war etc. And I'm also stating that if the fight is so high on demand people need to buy his fights. That matters more than you think. Canelo beat every champ at 168 in the space of a year? A better question is when's the last time Benavidez fought the 2nd 3rd or even 4th best fighter at 168? He was there longer than Canelo.

 

Ducking eachother at least. They're fighting now

 

Well they haven't fought yet, so giving them a three month grace period after becoming champions its been a six years, one month, two weeks and 0 days duck, and counting.

 

GGG's biggest ppv before Canelo was 130k. David did 170k vs Plant. Try again.

I'm curious, was GGG also lucky to hitch a ride of the hater elevator?

 

Their fight venue is booked. So no one's ducking atm
