    I think if Canelo lost to someone like Yildirim then the rematch would be massive but Bivol is a top class world champion at a weight Canelo has rarely fought it so I don’t see it as a shock like Joshua Ruiz, Lara Warrington etc. It’s just giving Canelo another chance at beating a very good fighter like Joshua with Usyk.

    Also I know it’s Canelo but since when does the challenger have a rematch clause and walk to the ring second. Crap.

    Hearn saying ‘I can only make Taylor/Serrano, Canelo/Bivol, Joshua/Usyk and Canelo/GGG on DAZN’

    - Taylor v Serrano was originally announced for the Whyte Povetkin undercard on Sky before the pandemic

    - Joshua v Usyk is on Sky

    - Canelo v GGG has already been made twice on another platform

    If Premier are winning these it must be pennies. Just surprising DAZN don't take them

    And then Serrano engaged Jake Paul to haggle for her. By all accounts it upped her earning 50-fold for the Taylor fight overnight.

    Oh yeah, I get confused by all the different Football competitions. Unless they have subleased them to Premier? As the hockey rights they have Premier have been showing

    Big loss for DAZN Spain if true.

    MotoGP is basically a religion there

    Hearn is what he is, but it's always funny to see Ellerbe (or other Americans) take "British banter" so seriously.
