So Canelo is gonna fight Yildirim for the vacant wbc smw title? wtf?! lol

[apollo creed]

Wow that's a sad news for the boxing fans. Why not the wbc picked Rod Salka or Charlie Zelenoff for Canelo ?





I hope DAZN rejects this fight. Callum or BJS vs Canelo.

[gregregegg]

Guy lost his last fight, got an MD vs a boarderline journyman the fight befor and now has been called mandatory, for arguably the best belt, against arguably the p4p guy right now, in a stacked Division.... fornicate that.

I also hope DAZN block It seeing as noone in the world is calling for it, except i dont think they will, with Canelo looking to fight at 168 for a bit and canelo being on a longgg deal, picking up that belt will be a worthy investment. That way he can be in proper unification fights against Smith, BJS, or even Plant. And is closer to a potential undisputed fight at the weight.

[adislav123]

nothing else but embarrassing for canelo.

huge deal for yildirim.

still can't believe it, yildirim shouldn't even be considered for a second, neither mandatory nor as an "inbetween" opponent for the "the messiah of the sport, face of boxing, number one pound for pound fighter in the universe & most devastating bodypuncher since the beginning of time" that is canelo alvarez. not.

[Jeff_lacy_ko]

Boxing is on life support.

[Enlightened-One]

People are overreacting about Canelo facing Avni Yildirim.

Did people even bother to watch the Dirrell bout?

Yildrim is definitely better than some of the opponents other marquee names, such as Crawford, Golovkin, Kovalev, Luis Ortiz, Beterbiev, Ajagba etc., have faced during stay busy bouts, but they somehow escaped criticism.

Does anyone sincerely believe I’m wrong about this?

Phrases like “fake outrage” and “double standards” springs to mind.

[squiggy]

All those guys have caught plenty of criticism for it.

[ldlamb]

When you only are gonna fight at most twice a year...there should be no stay busy fights.

I was fine with that in the 80s when some guys fought 4 times a year.... but not now.

[Enlightened-One]

All those guys have caught plenty of criticism for it.

Fine, then it should be easy to quote some.

When you search for the evidence to attempt to justify tour beliefs, you’ll surely find the same people criticising Canelo also defend Crawford, Golovkin, Kovalev, Luis Ortiz, Beterbiev, Ajagba etc.

And if that proves to be the case, which it definitely will be, will you be honest and post a comment to this thread confirming this?

Rising from the black lagoon of idiocy and obnoxious behaviour. Gentlemen, I give you EO.

That’s a good opinion to hold, as long as it’s consistent in nature.

Be honest though, have you ever given a free pass to any of your favourite fighters for engaging in a stay busy bout against an anonymous unheralded foe?

Have you ever refused to criticise one of your favourite fighters for engaging in a stay busy bout against an unheralded foe?

You can take the moral high ground and criticise me all you want if you’ve never done this.

I eagerly await your reply.

I don't negotiate with forum terrorists. You've hijacked another thread and no one cares what you want.

He’s fought a who’s who over the years so not gonna give him too much heat over this

It’s rather interesting that you didn’t even bother to deny giving free passes to other fighters that are clearly “guilty” of committing the same proverbial “crime” as Canelo.

Surely you must realise your attempted insults come across as an admission on your part to applying double standards?

Only to you. Everyone else agrees. Go watch some fights. It's actually better than records and statistics.

So you still won’t deny giving free passes to other fighters that are clearly “guilty” of committing the same proverbial “crime” as Canelo?

So do you give Canelo a free pass for facing Yildrim?

If so, then your previous criticism of me is invalid.

If not, then you’ve admitted to applying double standards.

Either way, you dug a hole for yourself and your constant ducking of a rather simple question seems excessively problematic for your to answer.

And we both know the reason why - it’s because it’s a win-win situation for me either way.

You can’t even answer one simple question.

[Perseus]

According to bscene dazn has already refused it. Canelo will not be fighting Yildrim.

[Enlightened-One]

DAZN haven’t sanctioned any of the names GBP offered to them, because they don’t want to abide by the terms of their eleven fight $365m contractual guarantee.

DAZN wants to reduce Canelo’s $33.5m per bout guarantee.

[tiny_acres]

Canelo is not even rated by the WBC at 168.
Yet is fighting for their vacant title.
That should be the story. He is the money guy and gets preferred treatment.

[adislav123]

it's not as much about canelo making quick work of avni yildirim as the WBC naming the turk as the mandatory for the super middle world champion belt vs. non ranked canelo.

canelo could fight for a heavyweight title if he wanted. we know how he got that spot.

how did yildirim get that shot? corruption. plain and simple. paying off the WBC with a million, 500 k for yildirim. õner making a small fortune with the couple of millions he gets from canelo. must've been quite a "bidding war" for that spot.

in a way he's a genius.

but that fight shouldn't be for the title. world ranked number 1 vs. number 2 in the best case scenario should fight for the title. if 2 isn't available for what ever reason you move to number 3 and so forth...

yildirim no way deserves to fight for the title.

except the canelo worshippers & turkish boxing ultras nobody wants to fvcking see that fvcking shit farce of a "title fight".

saunders, smith or ryder who beat smith or any other top guy should fight canelo.

yildirim! total corruption and a totally shitty fight.

Yildrim’s WBC title bout against Dirrell was deemed controversial in nature, hence the guaranteed title shot.

There’s no corruption.

The WBC confirmed Yildrim’s status as the mandatory challenger to the 168-pound title holder David Benavidez during October of last year.

If you didn’t bother to complain or accuse the WBC of being corrupt ten months ago, when this was announced, then you shouldn’t feign outrage today.

Nothing has changed, other than Canelo expressing a desire to fight for a newly-vacated title.

It’s annoying to read bizarre claims written by people who can’t be bothered to fact check.

You’re not entitled to an opinion if it’s solely based on fictional events that bear almost no relation whatsoever to reality, which only ever occurred in your mind.
