So are we expecting Canelo to stay at 168 after this? Or drop back down to 160?
Canelo will start his new division of having every super middleweight drop to 164
& he'll weigh in on fight night at 13st 12lbs & repeatedly refuse to unify, stating "I'm not really a supermiddle, I'm too small for this division..."

Well done to Rocky, as world champion you should look for the biggest fights and of course he will get well paid.
I wish more fighters would dare to dream.
Who criticised Dave Boy Green for taking on SRL or Minter for taking on Hagler, Jones or Honeyghan for taking on Curry, London v Ali, the list goes on, I wish we would have more of it in our game.

Surely not in the UK. Sky Already have PPV’s for Nov and likely Dec.
The Whyte ppv will be 22nd, so this is taking place a week before. No way. Plus Fielding isn’t the most well known British boxer. It’s gonna be at 3am at night. Who gonna stay up for it let alone buy it?
Fielding will get extra money from UK TV rights without it being a PPV.

Yeh. It was Canelo that ‘chose’ to fight Fielding. He got lucky. A loss will not hurt Fielding here.
Hearn going on about how Fielding will be 180 pounds on fight night. Has he never met Canelo?

Yeh. It might affect the Whyte PPV. And that is already going head to head with the BT PPV.
Then again, the Canelo-Fielding PPV will bomb here..

I think both December 22nd PPVs will bomb anyway. 3 days before Xmas is just terrible timing to try to get people to fork out an extra 20 quid.

Probably most of it, but it’s still sh!t timing. January is a tight enough month without adding 20 quid to your TV bill.

If Fielding pulled it off. Best ever British win? I'd say so.

not sure anything any time soon will beat randy turpin defeating a 129-1 sugar ray robinson and taking his world title
would still obviously be a huge win of course

The only way it’s PPV is if they somehow manage to get Chisora v Whyte on a U.K. leg as well.
If not then there’s no way this is going to be PPV.

This would be a notch below Honeyghan-Don Curry & Laing vs Fat Durán, for my money. Nowhere near beating the best fighter ever for the undisputed middleweight title.
Maybe if Clinton Woods had upset Roy Jones, that'd be on that level, but nothing since.
