    Dazn is hardly a sinking ship. You can watch a ton of sport on there for cheap.

    Canelo is still likely the biggest name In boxing followed by Fury

    It flopped because you have to pay for DAZN and the ppv, which is ridiculous.

    On a separate, but related, note. Shadow sent me this video, conclusively proving that Canelo beat Floyd.

    You are an “orrible” poster as Canelo would say and an even worse person. I am a Canelo fan. I don’t need to prove that to you or anybody. I advised against him fighting Bivol because I knew exactly what would happen. Golovkin is Lil g or lowercase g. It’s nothing to do with Whiteness if the Kazakh Mongol but everything to do with the stupidity of his feral rabid fan base cult who don’t live in reality.

    Spence is the truth. Don’t worry when he moves up in weight your hero Lil g can get it after Canelo separates him from his senses. The point of this post is how poor a job DAZN and Matchroom are doing promoting him in the US the point which your tiny brain has missed.

    I am not a LDBC member but they obviously terrify you and fools like you. I wonder why. I don’t care if a fighter is Black, White,Asian etc what I care about are skills.

    See I always thought so too but then he sent me this 18 second video of Canelo punching Floyd's arm and getting countered sharply on the chin accompanied by a 15,000 word thesis centered on the efficacy of bicep punching. And now my mind has been completely changed. Canelo 10-2.

    All it goes to show is Shadow and Canelo don’t actually understand how judges score fights. No wonder Canelo thought he won against Bivol because he connected with arms in some rounds when Bivol was hitting his face flush and his body.

    Naw, he's not banal, what he put out was an excellent perspective on how he sees it. Your response is what was banal because it was both obvious and boring.

    Canelo fell off hard, i can see him losing again soon. THe only way to get back on top is destroying someone dangerous like beterbeir or benavidez or charlo, i don't see any of that happening tho. He's probably done. For me if spence destroyed crawford he would be the man in the sport, but he's not ever going to be the star canelo was because he doesn't have the hispanic/latino fanbase.

    My friend we don’t always have to agree. I appreciate your view point. You ask me questions when we disagree and we discuss like men politely like men and sometimes we inject humour in jest. That’s because we are men unlike some of the little boys on this forum.
