Oscar de la Hoya, Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather, Cinnamon have something in common, everyone in their time was the most selling PPV. I think that canelo will soon stop or maybe he stopped being the king of PPV, his last fight with Kovalev was a sales disaster. Teofimo Lopez could be the new king of the PPV or in any case he is headed to be the new king of the PPV.
I could see it but he ain’t supplanting canelo just yet. He’d have to beat loma, tank, tevin farmer & Ryan Garcia to start being in the conversations.
Canelo is the king of boxing right now globally. Lopez has a long way to go considering no one outside of boxing has a clue who he is. As Hanz says above, he needs to pick up some blue chip wins to raise his profile.
in the fight of canelo alvarez vs kovalev they had to delay the fight waiting for an important fight that was taking place in mixed martial arts to end. also the canelo vs kovalev fight had bad numbers compared to other fights. They don't want to take it out of Las Vegas because they want their image to grow in Japan, they just know that they won't sell the same thing as before
You betcha! It takes two to tango. He has Ryan Garcia, Haney and Gerbil Davis as future big fights in the pipe line.
Its between him and Tank. Tank has already fought in the UK so is know in the boxing circles here. Teo not so much but the future is bright for Teo
If he beats Loma and becomes undisputed in one fell swoop then he'd have to be a star, if not the star, of the boxing game.
