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

Idk what’s going on behind the scenes. All I know is rematch clauses suck but Canelo would beat Plant like he stole something so it wouldn’t come into play.

There are other guys that present similar or even a bit bigger challenge to Canelo so I’d be ok with him someone else as long as that someone is a worthy opponent. With that said no undisputed champ at 168 would suck.

I think shyt will be sorted out. These negotiations were never gonna go smooth. Both just sides being hard headed. Canelo got everything he wanted at dazn and PBC is used to having all the negotiating power. So they're both gonna have to cave in on something. And I'm not buying no shyt about this fukking up plants training camp.....dude said he been in the gym preparing for a while now. We ain't hearing none of those excuses

Does De La Hoya not realize all this shyt he has been talking about Canelo recently will only also make him look bad?

Also kinda crazy negotiations get called off right when Nevada goes back to wearing masks. Got a feeling another lockdown is coming .....they're prolly gonna have to move the fight to Texas.

Imagine Floyd demanding if gets hurt he still wants 100ms to fight replacement Karim Mayfield


“iTz n0T aBsUrD”

the dikkriding is strong in Canelo Land

shyt is absurd to begin with and even crazier in the era of Covid and cases back on the rise. We know damn well if Plant tested positive or got hurt Eddie Hearn would be on standby with John Ryder, Fox would be crazy to commit $40M in guarantees for Canelo to face anyone.

Canelo holds all the cards here, if he wants to fight on Nickelodeon Plant gotta go to Nickelodeon, if the wants to fight in Timbuktu then Plant has to fight in Timbuktu.

It's up to FOX if that money worths the risk for them if that's the hold up. It's risky cause it's a 40m guarantee but what they buy with it is a working relationship with the sport's biggest star in the Americas and not just the Plant fight but other possible super fights (Benavidez, Charlo). It's up to them how much that worth to them. If it falls through they get backlash that's gonna disappear in a few weeks/months but the bigger damage might be the bridge they burn with Canelo.

It can be easily just posturing though or I can even imagine a conspiracy theory like shyt that they already have the deal but this is how they want to make some news around the fight upon announcing it...

So is the Canelo Vada Testing bullshyt? I’d have to turn my Canelo stan card in if enrollment/testing is playing a role in this

C'mon bro... why you asking these questions??

These are businessmen in suits not some tough guy competitors, they won't turn their back to the biggest star just like that on some prideful, macho shyt

 

[desjardins]

Doesnt look like Copp is bullshyttin

Not quite sure that is absurd, no ones paying to see Plant fight if Canelo pulls out

I mean, is it that absurd, though? Canelo is very much the A side in this fight, so it stands to reason the terms would be somewhat in his favour.

Canelo dragging PBC over the coals just to take a belt from one of their guys, bounce, and get a career pay day off of it
This is no more absurd then thinking he deserves to hand pick his opponents in a long term 9 figure deal . That diva shyt hit different when it crosses the street I see
And I'm not even sure why Plant is worried about what PBC would have to pay if he fukks up somehow, long as he keeps his belt he can try to set up that career payday again which is fair if it's indeed his fault

thats why im just sitting back and enjoying the fukkery...you see the dualities...canelo not honoring his commitment to GB/DAZN - "Good fukk Oscar and DAZN..he doesnt need to sign to nobody"..Canelo wanting to pull a fast one on PBC "now wait a min why you wanna do the honorable Al Haymon and PBC like that Canelo"

lesson - dont stan platforms lol

They should have been stopped dealing with him. PBC was looking weak, bending to all these demands for what? A shytty ass fight.

It’s like Team Canelo was like oh they’re gonna give us this? Let’s just keep pushing for more. Shyt has gotten out of control.

What they do need to is let his bytch ass go to his comfort zone, which is DAZN, and fight another euro bum. It has been proven that his stans like these fights. They don’t care if he fights liam neeson or whoever. I don’t care either though.

He is the most underwhelming draw boxing has ever had.
