Amazon deal must be trash. Showtime promised to finance all Canelo fights, Amazon making all that money and can't float PBC $35mil to get their new partnership going on a good note? It's not like it would be a total loss, probably recoup most of it damn

$35m that they already agreed to pay and tried to reneg on.. why would Canelo not leave..

yea they couldn't keep their end of the agreement, is what it is
Amazon nickel and diming PBC with the budget can't be encouraging for what the prime era going be though. If PBC don't cross the street more it's going be a lot of mid in house match ups going to PPV

Everyone too clouded by their canelo hate to realize PBC is on its death bed. You made an agreement with canelo to pay him 35 mil per fight. You made an agreement that jermall Charlo would be his next fight. Your fighters shyt the bed and now you wanna renegotiate. That's not how it works.

Canelo is bigger than PBC by himself. You're not just paying him for the revenue his fights bring. You're paying him for the value he brings to your (dying)company. Keeping canelo tied down at this critical stage when you're transitioning to a new network is probably worth the 35 mil alone. Now you're left with an entire roster of fighters who can't even sell out an arena.

PBC is on life support and they have only themselves to blame. They're about to get left in the dust like we all said they would. Tank has already hinted at becoming a free agent. Ennis as well. Benavidez did 60k ppv buys in his last fight. The end is near. Wouldn't be surprised if they don't even complete this Amazon deal.

- Subriel Matias left
- Luis Ortiz left
- Boots is trying to sign with Matchroom
- Canelo left
- Bud left
- Wilder and Spence's careers are winding down


The writing is on the wall. Not even the biggest fans of Top Rank or Matchroom. But they actually operate like a legit promotional company when it comes to marketing and building their fighter's careers. PBC operates like a chitlin circuit

why not take the 55 mil they offered if thats da case?
Ya they reneged cause no one wants to see that charlo shyt and it didnt make financial sense anymore. But he was offered even more for a actual threat and declined lol

They dne one locked him in with that goofy shyt in the first place…Mal Charlo was a stupid option to begin with, why would Canelo turn down 35mil for a drunk.

The fact is they just flat out don’t have the money for a Canelo fight, just like they dnt got the money for a Crawford/Spence rematch. No evidence of PBC offering him a decent deal, the only rumbling was PBC saying he can fight Munguia who isn’t even their fighter but maybe they was looking for DAZN to help split the Nelo bill.

Because thats cap..They didn't offer $55m in this deal.. That $55m that Sampson keeps crying about is from 2022 when Canelo was offered a $100m multi fight deal for $45m for Charlo and $55m for Benavidez and Charlo gets arrested on felony charge during final stretch of negotiations.. The truth is they don't have the $55m right now to put in escrow PERIOD
