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

Last year the haters were saying Ryan Garcia was the bigger star though .....shyt canelo might be the biggest sports star on the planet right now. He about to make 140 mil in less than a year


And let's not forget dazn had him locked in at 35 mil per fight

Canelo should take the PBC deal just off GP. dazn tried to sabotage his whole career. Can't let that shyt slide.

No one has ever said Ryan Garcia is bigger than Canelo..ever. He almost left Golden Boy because he was making midcard money...lol.

So Andrade vs Benavidez is next if they win their next fights..good deal.

I suppose there is a lack of concrete evidence. A lot of assuming and inferences to make vague predictions.

In my eyes:

The Charlo and Benavidez fights are promotional lay ups. Canelo just did 800k against your barber's favorite cac, who had no PPV history beforehand. I think Canelo could break a million facing off against Charlo and Benavidez, both being significantly more well known and hyped up than Plant.

It's weird to type out, but the racial aspect has to be factored in here. Matching Saul up with an African American fighter and a Mexican American fighter is going to drive the buy rate.

Bivol has none of the upside Golovkin once did. No HBO marketing, no P4P rank, no exciting offensive style, no goofy Borat impersonation. He's clearly a much tougher sell.

You forget Plant was doin the best numbers Fox N FS1 was seeing in a while before the Canelo fight N he sold out Nashville had it jumpin

Flabavidez been fighting in AZ N not doin that gate N his Showtime #s = reruns of Harry N the Hendersons

However the Mexican v Mexican Cannot be fukked with N Flabavidez should get atleast one more fight after Lemeuix to build his brand… with the right opp after Lemeuix Or even co main Canelo v Charlo… Flabavidez could pull a milly

For years I’ve been watching this virtuoso performance by Curry in so-so quality.

This just came up an hour ago on Top Rank channel, finally in good quality

I’m forever in awe of the left hook at 5:17

DFW boy.

 

[KingOFKings]

I’m glad other people are starting to recognize this. DAZN is where fighters lose steam.

 

[ChocolateGiddyUp]

Haney chased the bag it’s hard to blame a 19-20 yr old for doin so

Had he stayed with Showtime I guarantee they wouldn’t of let him get hoed out by the WBC N all the fights he got besides Jojo could’ve been made on Shotime

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Looks like if you're a black fighter, DAZN can keep you active, but not much else. Definitely can't expect to get a big fight under them nikkas.

Goldenboy didn't even do anything special in regards to Ryan Garcia. Dude just gets opportunities based off his potential. They even kept him on training wheels for like an extra year because he was going life and death with cats he was supposed to be better than.

Paul Kroll had alot of hype when he was unsigned but I have yet to see it, dude disappointing on Shobox

 

[Black_Jesus]

It's amazing to me how people can make such statements without showing a shred of evidence or receipts and nobody questions anything about it.. Not the media.. Nobody.. Everyone just believes it.. Now the narritive is Ryan is a big star driving subscriptions and Devin losing steam??

 

[Derek Lee]

ShoBox on now

Kroll very fortunate to walk outta here with a draw, dude stinks
