thats why canelo vs plant on DAZN is for the best...this fight aint worth no 80 bucks on PPV esp if its a FOX broadcast team behind it :scust:..if they were to hold it on regular FOX id actually go for it to be honest

taylor vs ramirez was on ESPN
charlo vs castano was on showtime

far better undisputed fights than a canelo vs plant and no one dared to utter PPV for those..shyt

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

I mean GB/DAZN were trying to pull a fast one on Canelo too. Everybody hands was dirty in that situation and fishnets has a history of fukk shyt, that is probably why everyone was cool with that.

Canelo is a draw, but he aint that big of a draw to be pulling some of the shyt he do though and that's facts. Canelo last few fights I had to tell a lot of people at work shyt was happening, they had no fukking clue even a lot of the Mexicans which had me like :dwillhuh:. When Floyd and Manny had fights coming, EVERYONE knew, you aint even have to advertise that shyt, a lot of people at work been asking me who Errol Spence is ever since the Pac fight was announced, I just tell them look him up on youtube.

Keep it 100 with you I think PBC is gonna lose their ass paying Canelo $40m to fight Plant on PPV, that shyt will probably do 500k PPV buys MAX. shyt is not some marquee fight. If they were paying Canelo $40m to fight Spence that would be a little more realistic.

Pay for the plant fight and open up the possibility of getting Canelo to face Charlo Benavidez and Spence?

Espinoza has said that the Mayweather deal was a loss until the Pacquiao & McGregor fights:yeshrug:

I mean don't get me wrong, sometimes you have to spend money to make money it's business(something nobody apparently ever told Bob Arum cheap ass) I'm just saying PBC is paying out $50m in purses for this fight, and there is no buzz for this at all, this is nowhere close to a megafight even if it is for undisputed. To quote frugal ass Bob Arum 'They're gonna lose money on that fight.'

And far as Canelo-Spence what fight is Canelo gonna take that will make anywhere close to that much money? Beterbiev? Bivol? Benavidez? GGG 3 in 2022? Nah bro Canelo would make that fight whether he made this one or not. PBC needs to realize that and stop caving to some of these ridiculous demands.

I think the hold up is PBC insisting on a multi-fight deal in the contract and Canelo just wants Plant. I dont think that shyt was ever resolved like the gossip sites tried to claim

That's not the hold up. The hold up is if Canelo gets "sick" or injured, Plant has to wait on him. But if Plant gets sick or injured, Canelo gets the guaranteed $40Million STILL to fight a late replacement. That's bullshyt and terrible business if PBC agrees to that. That's a duck tactic for Canelo. And he probably got a problem with olympic style testing too.

shyt would set a TERRIBLE precedent for future negotiations with numerous other fighters if they agreed to that. Speaking strictly from a business standpoint, if I was PBC I would tell Canelo to go fukk himself with them terms, I don't care how much money you would bring in the future.

I like Canelo and he been moving better lately, but this is going back to them funny style moves him and GB/fishnets used to try to pull. Aint no sense in talking about it though, he gonna get a pass no matter what anyway. :yeshrug:

It's crazy to me that everybody is in here shytting on Canelo, when the point is all this shyt is happening because Plant was 10x more money than he's ever made IN HIS CAREER, AND Al Haymon wants Canelo on HIS PLATFORM. Plant talking bout what they "giving" Canelo, breh, you fighting Canelo is GIVING YOU a check you will never see again in your life. So YES Canelo is gonna demand $40MM on a one fight deal (I say this because I really think the sticking point is PBC wants a multi-fight deal to offset paying BOTH Canelo and Plant).

Kind of missing the fact that Plant could more than likely leverage this into a 2-3 year deal on DAZN for even more money than he could ever make on Fox, because breh has been a champ for a while and been getting tiny checks up til this point.

Have you ever done business bruh? PBC would be fukking CRAZY to accept terms like that. Nobody would. Not PBC. Not Bob Arum. Not Eddie Hearn. NOBODY. Do you understand how ridiculous guaranteeing someone $40 million dollars REGARDLESS who they fight sounds? Then in the meantime if something happens with Canelo Plant has to sit around and wait until he is ready and can't fight anybody else? :mjlol:

This what I meant a long time ago when I said Canelo be getting some crazy ass Magic Johnson no look to Worthy for the game winner passes bruh. He aint even that big of a draw to demand some shyt like that.
