Poor Lemieux got f*cked up. Never believe in DLH promises.

Is DAZN going to be Canelo's new television home?
Imagine the flood of Latino subscribers if Hearn was able to lock in Canelo long term.
Pure genius.

Canelo’s pay needs PPV money. Not subscription money.
ESPN and Showtime have PPV platform.

Settle down, B.R.
Lemieux can certainly wait until Cinco de Mayo 2019 when Canelo will drop back to 160.
Hasn't Lemieux had plenty chances? He's lucky to get another title opportunity, so he can wait 6 months.

Is ESPN's app any more lucrative than DAZN in terms of what it pays the fighters?
I still think some long-term DAZN negotiations have been made between Hearn and GBP.
Hearn agreed to sacrifice Fielding and his belt in exchange for future Canelo appearances.

I think so. Lemieux is a very straight forward opponent, the path to beating him has been clearly mapped. Rocky, not so much. Smith caught Rocky cold, and had the wherewithal to ensure the finish- I'm not saying Canelo doesn't- I just think Rocky learned a valuable lesson from that fight and a repeat scenario isn't likely.
My biggest fear is that Rocky will start too tentatively and fall behind on the 'Golden Boy Judges' cards.
While I fully expect Canelo to win, I do think that a fundamentally sound boxer like Rocky Fielding could be in it more than Lemieux- who would most likely fall on his own sword by engaging too much against a powerful puncher like Canelo.

Sounds like he can’t stay at middleweight without clenbuterol or extreme dedication maybe involving daily harsh dieting and exercise year round.

It's no surprise him moving up. The surprise is how long he made MW.
Always looked enormous by fight night. Im happy at the move, a whole new division of possibility ahead, which is why I started a thread about those possibilities- exciting stuff IMO

He actually looked quite small against Golovkin in their second fight. He looked like a damn boulder in their first fight, though. He was gigantic.

i think there both mismatches
but id be slightly more interested in fielding, if simply to see a guy so much taller get chopped down by a much shorter guy, for some reason i tend to enjoy those
