Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

It’s going to be interesting to see if this means he is protected/tied into the platform and how fights can be made (the ones we all want to see).

Hopefully it’s not another layer of politics!

Andrade and Jacobs will be on DAZN too, GGG might follow as well if he wants the rubber match.

But anyway it's whatever, the situation is Canelo is a clear A side over anyone. If dudes from other networks such as the Charlos, Hurd, BJS or Murata want him they have to go to him that's not even a debatable. And I bet they would be all willing to go and fight him on DAZN at least for 1 fight if that means they get the Canelo payday.

We thank Uncle Eddie for providing the impetus and supplying his fighter to make this DAZN deal possible. More fighters will come knocking on DAZN's door I'm sure.

Really makes you think what kind of money he was offering to Mikey and the Charlos...especially if Tevin Farmer got 500k for 4 fights. We know he offered Broner 3.5 mil a fight, but there's no way he offered those guys less than Broner

No shock that Golden Boy and Showtime couldnt mend their Beef but

At that deal .

This is a great deal for Canelo

His PPV #'s have been highly inflated for a long time

And that was with little to no comp on the PPV market

Now with the emergence of Wilder, Manny vs a notable opp and Floyd coming back

Competition was gonna heat up and he had no tv network backing

Very interested to see if dazn allows him to face his mando Charlo

Or make him drop the belt again

Cause Charlo could very well knock him smooth the fukk out and mess the whole deal up

Wow this really puts DAZN on the map here in America.. Of course the hardcore fans signed up for the trial with Joshua Povetkin but I can see the subscribes skyrocket for Canelos fights

I figured Canelo would do a 1 fight deal to see how that goes and takes the best deal for each fight but 365 Mil is 30 million more that baseballs biggest contract

He will be done with this contract in 5 years ...at age 33.. Then can get more huge paydays similar to late in mayweathers career


GGG Lost

500k for 4 fights is that much though? Maybe for Farmer yeah

The Broner deal seemed correct to me but supposedly Broner gets paid more "under the table" by Haymon

Canelo is in a whole different universe than Wilder as far as drawing power and fame go. They are no rivals.

And Charlo won't knock him out imo, Charlo is not without a chance against anyone but Canelo has a big advantage in experience and if he took GGG's best shots throughout 2 fights without going down or visibly hurt once I'm not too worried for him getting knocked out by Charlo.

Hopefully this leads to Whyte/Ortiz. Interesting timing, Chisora also just switched representation and is working with David Haye now.

I know what you wanted to tweet but it doesn't show

Povetkin said recently that he might appear on the April AJ card. I'd love either matchup from Povetkin - Whyte - Ortiz. I'm guessing we'll have AJ vs Whyte and Povetkin vs Ortiz in April maybe. Doubt Aj vs Wilder would happen in April but I have hopes we'll see it a year from now or so, next fall finally. Except if any of them would lose until then.

I haven't used DAZN yet. I don't like having to go to all these different channels, streams, and shyt just to see a fight.

Nygga I'm sticking with TV. I got ESPN & Showtime. That's it. I'm not downloading all these different apps & hunting down all these different streams to see a card. The Contender Season 5 is on some channel I've NEVER heard of in my life. I don't have time to hunt shyt down.

i feel you on this...shyt 5 years ago i was not onboard with paying for streaming services nor did I believe in streaming services in general and I'm an IT cat by occupation. @Mook used to get on me about that all the time lol. Now I pay for 4 with a possible 5th on the horizon. It's funny how time can change your mentality towards certain things lol

 

[The axe murderer]

shyt @canelo's deal. Compare that to other top paid athletes and you'll get how nuts that is. I thought boxing is dead tho.
And Canelo still 28 years old

Haven't used DAZN yet so that free trial is still waiting for me

It’s also a minimum, it raises if they reach “subscription benchmarks”
