It's a L for both sides.
Anybody who believed Glazer took a L obviously, at this point we got to hope the Saudis come thru in the 11th hour and overpay
But PBC stans spent a week talking about how it was smart for PBC not to overpay for a Charlo fight and now they got to still give Canelo a big guarantee, pay Munguia more than Charlo would have got, and whatever split is involved in a cross promotion type situation. It's more upside on that fight but we'll see. And Canelo still might not give them a Benavidez fight. So the "win" is Canelo having PBC by the balls playing games and leaking shyt to get his way? I guess

this..i personally do not even care about canelo-munguia (although munguia is not a bad opponent) nor who is going to air it because canelo should be fighting benavidez..and he blatantly ducked him....shyt its known im no fan of pbc but rick glaser ill never take that guy that seriously for anything...it goes back what i said in the past of people just posting any old thing from boxing twitter on here and not having the ability to gauge if its right or not..theres only a handful of ppl of boxing twitter that be on the ball with their info and sources and its rarely a youtuber or "consultants" like rick..straight up

Is Mungia not a better fight that washed up Charlo? Si o No?

In 2024...yea. Before their last fights I think most people thought Big Charlo was better

true but Canelo actually "left" though. That and the other stuff PBC does (making everything ppv, inactive fighters, searching for new networks) all point to the money being tight over there so it was easy to fall for it

Facts. What Canelo has an advantage over Benavidez is that he has the punching power, and is very good at going to the body, which is odd that no one has really attacked Benavidez's body that much. Also Benavidez has very basic footwork and stands up very straight which would create openings for Canelo to target his body

This is why it's odd that Canelo won't take the fight. I'm leaning towards Canelo ducking, but I'm not jumping out the window like everyone else. I think it's more of "at this stage of my career I don't want a tough fight". Don't think Canelo is outright "scared" of Benevidez. He sees it as a 50/50 or a 55/45 fight and maybe he thinks it's too much for him at this point of his career

Ducking...lol@this stage...wtf. Just 33. Hahahaha

Boxing fans don't care about belts anymore. Most boxing fans don't even know anything about mandatories or the rankings of most divisions. The names are what matter to fans. Which is why tank vs Ryan sold what it did. David himself doesn't care about the belts. He's proven that throughout his career. He wants that payday and that's always been his main motivation.

Fans would be begging canelo for this fight regardless if he had the belts or not. Just like they were begging canelo to fight golovkin even when they were in separate divisions. Titles are meaningless to most fans nowadays.

If the belts don't matter, then why not just relinquish the belts then?
Like this fight that just happened this weekend, Raymond Ford vs Kholmotov, classic fights. Ford is what 14-0 and Kholmotov is like 15-0. Imagine if there was a legend currently at that weight class approaching his mid 30s hogging the belts. That fight wouldn't have even happened

This is part of the reason why Boxing has a tendency of getting stale. Young up and coming fighters with hunger ready to prove themselves. I criticize PBC for taking part in this, but some blame has to go towards Canelo's way as well

[JamesJabdi]

why did you mention eddie hearn deal?

it was just a connection to the Canelo deal that happen last week. word is Eddie Hearn made Eddie Reynoso angry with their offer and Eddie Hearn is Joshua promoter.

why did you mention eddie hearn deal?

Because he's trying to imply AJ doesn't have enough money to have his own house. PBC Stan humor is next level so you wouldn't understand.
