    Some of the replies here seem to forget that Canelo isn't an unbeaten fighter.

    I think he may take one or two more big money fights after his DAZN deal ends. Possibly with DAZN, or possibly with a PPV platform. I would be surprised if he manages to win all 10 fights, but losing a fight or two won't hurt his marketability much.

    5 years is a long time for a network/platform in this environment. DAZN has spent a ton of money. They might fold or there may even be a bail out clause on DAZN's end if Canelo looses badly, unexpectadly, or suddenly becomes unmarketable via a scandal of some sort.

    Hard to say.. If he fights every 3 or 4 months instead of 2 times a year he could get those fights over with in 2-3 years. Thing is, he now fights in 2 divisions, and not very deep divisions. So he can pick a good amount of average fighters.
