“We’re going to go to [Canelo] and say, ‘Here are our three or four options.’ PBC is going to say, ‘Here are our three or four options,’ and somebody else is probably going to put three or four options out there," Hearn told IFL TV.

“He’s going to look at the deal and decide which one he wants to do. I think the GGG fight is going to be such a big fight, and there’s going to be an announcement about him very soon. He’s got a big unification fight coming up. The GGG versus Canelo fight is a massive fight and probably the biggest money fight out there for Canelo.”

I have a feeling that Andre Ward is up next. Andre may be in a wheelchair or whatever but the fans don't know that. For 10 million dollars I think that concerns about legacy will fly out the window and this can be made into a huge fight. It just looks like a big low hanging fruit sort of like LL vs MT. Probably not gonna be the best fight ever but it will fool the fans to take out their wallets.

It would take a hell of a lot more than $10 million. 50 he would think about it, and it would have to be @ 175.

Is Ward skint?

I know 10 million is a life changing amount of money for most, but would it be worth Ward risking his legacy and health when he is comfortable?

I think that Ward is a businessman like most. Google says his networth is between 2 and 8 million dollars. If it's 2 then poor fellow. As far as legacy goes. Is he RJjr? No. BHOP, LL, Wladdy, James T, Holy, Pac, FMjr, Joe C, Canela, ODLH, Julio Ccsr? No he is below all of them so there isn't much to sacrifice.

His health? He can just go to sleep in the first round and collect his paycheck.

Is Ward some star like Mike T or RJjr so he will be invited to an exhibition fight in 10 years for 50m$? Hell no.

Ward would take the 10 cause it's the best deal he will ever get. Unless he is an idiot.

If Ward or Canela don't want it. Is there any better lowhanging fruit out there?

Other decent low hanging fruit would be having some fun with Carl Froch, taking on another Chavez brother, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, could Calzaghe be pullled from retirement?

As far as big fights for big money, he is out of super middleweights, the light heavyweights are dangerous and low reward, Breidis is superrisk but probably not that high reward, GGG III simply isn't that interesting. The other mws aren't either.

Whoever the walking dartboard fights next will certainly need to be 'arranged' first.

If the PED poster boy of boxing 'beefs up' any further he'll be barely human.

Half man - half bull.

Shocking, simply shocking.

Canelo now strides the sport in the same way Ben Johnson strode the Seoul 100 metre track in 1988.

You know, make some good points.

I can envisage that scenario playing out.

Agreed, and ward is a winner too. You see how he had a couple of warm up fights to prepare for kovalev.

Ggg 3 would be good if ggg can put in an impressive win against murata. I don't know if canelo really wants to face him again, but might fancy his chances to stop him at 168.

Light heavyweights seem a bit too big, but he took out kovalev, so it's possible.

Another great low hanging fruit is none other than Errol Spence. Spence would pose a zero threat to Canelo but with all the hype the fellow has received this fight could sell pretty well. Which is better cashing out against Crawford or Canelo?

If Bivol beats him does that scrap the GGG fight?

I prefer Charlo first then GGG or Bivol.

Not that either. Not now. Fury vs the winner of Uysk Joshua is the biggest money maker.
No one wants a third Canelo GGG now that GGG is past it

Biggest commercial fight for Canelo is a rematch against Floyd Mayweather jr.

I think that the commercial value of GGG is overestimated. Correct me if I am wrong but wouldn't a Ward or a Spence fight perhaps be similarily financially lucrative?

Biggest available commercial fight.

Spence isn't even being discussed, FMJ isn't in the picture because he's all about the exhibitions. Ward is long reired and he's not a big draw lets be fair.

The GGG 3rd fight has lost some spark of course. Mike C and a few others are always hyping how we need to see a 3rd fight, but I don't see the point.

Why even mention Floyd? He is long retired and Canelo is 2 or 3 weight divisions above his retirement weight
Ward is long retired and has had a large insurance policy payout for a career ending injury.
GGG has been laying low and most have lost interest in him.

GGG is just so old now.
I don't want to see a great champion get hammered until he finally goes out on his granite chin. He was on the slide the first time they fought. Now it will seem like a high school bully bashing a pensioner.
Stuff that for a joke.
Even casuals will look at the stats and see a near 40 year old facing a bull in his prime - what part of that says "commercial success"?

I can not argue with anything you said.
None of those 3 fights make any sense.
2 retired guys and a guy at 40 that is way on the other side of his prime.
Waste of time
