No news yet about Canelo yet on whom he will likely face next because he just came out from a trilogy fight against his long rival, Golovkin. Some rumors saying that he will activate his rematch after Bivol-Ramirez fight but I guess Canelo will not activate that if Ramirez will win because Bivol won't have belts by that time.

Recent rumors are saying that Canelo might activate the rematch if Bivol succeeds on his title defense against Zurdo and that might pursue because Bivol has nothing to do afterwards as Beterbiev is currently injured and he also have his own title defense he needed to win.

Also, if you guys remember our past discussion on Canelo's contract, I think it was written somewhere in that said contract that Canelo will face 3 boxers this year or hopefully next year 1st quarter, we already know the 2 boxers namely Bivol and Golovkin. Now, can somebody here guess who's that 3rd boxer? Or can someone confirm that there's indeed 3rd challenger?

Don't have any idea about that but considering that Bivol has his own upcoming fight, it might not be him for this year. But if it's coming next year, the chance of him and Canelo to have their rematch is possible if Bivol will take down Zurdo. We might see Canelo's camp to pursue that intention to have the rematch, for sure it might be more money for both fighters even this time Bivol can ask for more cut compared to what he got last time.

with Canelo's win over GGG, wondering here if he will still be the favourite if he fights Bivol. because last time, bivol was underdog. so am thinking that bookies may favour canelo here. but the odds will be tight. this will be an interesting re-match if this will happen early next year. since bivol is the belt holder, high likely that he will get the bigger cut over canelo.

Canelo having a rematch against Bivol is always on the table, I believe it is also written on their first match contract that a rematch is viable when needed. I think it will be an interesting fight to see a rematch between the two and I am curious on the strategy Canelo's camp will implement to adjust to Bivol's strategy during their last fight.

I think DAZN has 3 fight deal for Canelo, you already stated the two boxer, the third boxer is either of the two, Ilunga Makabu or John Ryder ( more inclined on Makabu). It was stated in this article[1]

According to Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn, the third fight for Canelo in December will be Ilunga Makabu or John Ryder. While some boxing fans will see those two as unworthy of

Quote

For DAZN subscribers accustomed to watching boxing as part of their monthly subscription, they’re not going to be pleased having to shell out $60 to watch Canelo fight on PPV against Bivol, Golovkin, and possibly Makabu.

I agree, Manny always gives funds to charity via his own pocket. Often times he offers help and does not need to ask someone for funding, unlike those media company who always ask for a donation and claim the charity donations as theirs.

But of course, it is always better to have funding outside the riches we have and I think Manny also thinks the same. The exhibition match doesn't only give him the opportunity to showcase his skills, entertain his fans, and play the sports he is always fond of, but he can also gather extra funding for his charity projects. It is like hitting multiple birds in one stone.

That means he doesn't want to give his own money that he has now, but rather getting money on an exhibition is viable, but let's not really get the wrong idea for Manny Pacquaio as I am saying can always do the charity work even without those fights, but just like you have said that I surely agree because Manny Pacquiao still want to fight inside the ring and do Charity at the same time and as you have said hitting multiple birds at the same time,

But Moving on Manny Pacquiao will have his 1st fight in December and it is against DK Yoo, and if you have watched DK Yoo fight in an Exhibition match against Bradley Scott we can see that DK Yoo doesn't really have experience in a real fight and all of what he is doing are just for show, he is a complete amateur in boxing, and Pacman Agaisnt DK Yoo will be a very fast fight, but for Jaber Zayani that will surely not treat this as an Exhibition fight but rather a true boxing fight, I think Pacquiao will be having a hard time with Zayani, but knowing Pacman, then he will not be merciful,

The election's done and that's why he's up for matches again. I don't think it's a good capitalization if he's going to do it for that agenda and he's lost already and accepted that he can reach that ambition.

That's why, he's choosing where he's better and where people love him more.

Maybe, about the recovery of some expenditures. There's a likely that he's trying to do that because of how huge his campaign funds was used and it's part of his entire wealth.

Well maybe you are right and the number of recovered will surely increase and likely a respect for people that are making bad reputation for themselves, and I think that I can put this together so I have exhibited

For those who are interested on the PPV numbers regarding Canelo vs GGG fight.

Quote

As Saul “Canelo” Alvarez ultimately outboxed Gennadiy “GGG” Golovkin this past weekend to bring one of the most compelling rivalries in sport to an end, DAZN Group has confirmed the Canelo vs. GGG III fight night saw a global audience in the millions, with more than 1.06 million buys generated worldwide including PPV and DAZN subscriptions.

https://www.dazn.com/en-US/news/boxing/dazn-confirms-106-million-buys-globally-for-canelo-vs-ggg-iii/tjfnmc91gd8a1vzv8gih4812q

What do you guys think of the numbers?

I was thinking that the numbers will go high as this is the last fight of their trilogy and I was predicting that US audience alone could be around this ball park number. But this is globally already, and if I'm not mistaken the 2nd fight generated 1.1 buys and the rematch 1.2 buys.

The Canelo - GGG fight had gathered a lot of attention. Even non-fans of the two become curious so I think the given numbers are true, there might be some discrepancy but I think it is negligible. I also think that it should be more than the numbers since there is a possibility of late reports from their affiliates and other contacts.

I think otherwise though, if it has gathered a lot of attention for casual fans then the numbers should be high. But it is less than the two previous fight. There are also reports that they just got break even about the numbers it did because they have to pay more than $60-$70 million for this two fighters.

I don't think there will be late reports though, the numbers could be around that, give or take. And I also agree that free streamers could have kill or has been killing their business before they provided it for free around the world.

If that's the figures then so be it. We don't have to give doubts about it.

It's already big and we can see that even though this match is between a prime boxer against an almost retired legend, there are still lots of people who want to witness the fight, and as you said, even non-boxing fans because both names are big and popular.

It should be supposed to be big but we don't have any other legit reference to prove that. Aside from that, there are lot of free streaming links that was shared online and it's now easy to find.

I don't the numbers is right, it's from the official DAZN website so I doubt that there is discrepancy on the amount of PPV generated and the money. It's more than 1 million so I guess we can call it a success although there could be some experts that expecting the numbers to be more than that assuming that this is the 3rd fight between these two legends.

But as I have said already, maybe the illegal streamers have something to do with it. Or we are still in the pandemic or recession and fans are not wiling to buy this whether live gate or not. But still anything that is 1 million above is a good numbers at least for me.

Oh well, it just shows Mayweather is not after the legacy or what not. He is definitely after the money, and he can't blame him, up to this day he can still better performance because throughout his career, he wasn't hit like other boxers and that's why you will hear him saying, health comes first.

So he can have as many exhibitions fight as he wanted, make millions out of it in matter of minutes and then go to the bank laughing when cashing it out. But I guess he will not get the respect of some old and former boxers.

I don't think he needs those respect and approval from old and former boxers. He is already a legend and One of the best boxers in his era or possibly in the entire boxing history. Those who frowned his exhibition match doesn't have the say on the event because they can just skip and not watch it if they are not interested.

I agree, he don't need the approval of the others with what he does right now. He's already proven himself and his record is really at top of the line and it's hard to beat by the prime boxers today.

He should be the one respected by those that are still on their careers because no matter how hard they are, the achievements of what Money has right now is what he has worked for and it's hard to achieve.

Those exhibition matches he's doing, they're all for the money and he just accepts those offer as it's like his paycheck every time there are matches like that which isn't that a lot for him.

It's already set and that's one reason why he has accepted the deal for this match, knowing that it's for a charity cause he never escalated and thought twice.

I don't see him doing this with political agenda. He's already past that and he's more for anything he want to do and all of these fights, I guess that his passion for boxing is just hard to remove even if he's already announced retirement.

We can never say, but I am just speculating that the charity work is just for his hidden agenda or a good point for Running again for Presidency, but yeah it could be a legit help for others, and as I have said knowing Pacman from rug to riches he is more close to the people at poverty, but we can really never know his true intension,

But those fights were already set and we can not say if he wants to regain those lost amounts after that campaign period, but for a boxer like him surely those lingering effect on fighting in the ring will surely be there that is why he is still coming back for more,

The election's done and that's why he's up for matches again. I don't think it's a good capitalization if he's going to do it for that agenda and he's lost already and accepted that he can reach that ambition.

That is actually my first reaction when I heard on the news that Manny Pacquiao is in negotiation for an exhibition match. I thought if he lost a lot of money in the election campaign he needs to fight again. I hope it is not because he is already a millionaire, and he does not need to fight just for money. If it is for charity like everyone is saying above, then I guess it is for a good cause. I think there are still a lot of fans who want to watch Manny fight even just to see a glimpse of his previous glory.

Well, he doesn't really need the money from those Exhibition matches but if it goes to charity then I will be truly delighted Manny Pacquiao really doesn't need to fight anymore he can give to charity because right now he got a lot of business, a gym, tv commercials, Guesting, even an internet sensation, he can do anything because of his fame, but surely I think he missed the way he goes on the ring so much that is why he allowed this exhibition matches,

Kind of crazy that Mayweather is saying him and McGregor are going to rematch and McGregor is saying he’s not interested. Starting to seem like Mayweather is losing his shine a bit if he’s chasing MMA fighters around for fights. I sort of thought he’d be retired by now but he keeps fighting exhibitions. He’s addicted to boxing.

He realized that indeed he was not as phenomenal as he used to be and of course it was a good thing for him at this time to do some exhibition fights because indeed this was something that could be considered as one of the fields of money for him at this time because he realized when this luster is almost gone but when he still wants it like that then indeed money will still be available.
But it's hard now considering McGgragor's current reaction is to say he's not really interested in it.
On the other hand I also read a statement from UFC president Dana White who said McGregor-Mayweather 2 shouldn't have happened. because McGregor has two fights left on his current UFC contract, meaning he will be free to fight Mayweather once his deal expires.

He is addicted to making money, that's for sure. Yes, he knows that Canelo is already the cash cow and all attention has shifted already. So just to remain relevant in the boxing community, he resorted or at least pioneered this exhibitions and make money, easy millions per fight. And in their first fight with Conor, it generated and easily gross as one of the highest PPV numbers, only second to his fight with Manny Pacquiao. But there is some roadblock, it's Dana White, so not sure how they can get away with it since he is against the second fight or even the first fight.

Can't really blame him because that is Money Mayweather's passion and he is doing his best to do some exhibition fights anywhere in the world while he still can and while he's still known to the public. No denying that doing some exhibition fights is one of his easiest way to make money because of what he had achieved in his time. Sooner or later, that fire that keeps him fighting will burn-out and even Mayweather can't evade that.

I always thought of Mayweather to fight for money. The way he chooses his fights, it is always on his favor, and he make it sure he gets the bigger cut. But I think that this exhibition fights that he wants against McGregor is just to make himself still relevant. He likes the limelight. These fights will make him still visible publicly. I may be wrong; it is just my opinion.

Kind of crazy that Mayweather is saying him and McGregor are going to rematch and McGregor is saying he’s not interested. Starting to seem like Mayweather is losing his shine a bit if he’s chasing MMA fighters around for fights. I sort of thought he’d be retired by now but he keeps fighting exhibitions. He’s addicted to boxing.

Can't really blame him because that is Money Mayweather's passion and he is doing his best to do some exhibition fights anywhere in the world while he still can and while he's still known to the public. No denying that doing some exhibition fights is one of his easiest way to make money because of what he had achieved in his time. Sooner or later, that fire that keeps him fighting will burn-out and even Mayweather can't evade that.

That's true, Remember the Mayweather vs Logan Paul fight? I didn't believe that Mayweather would fight Logan Paul even on an exhibition boxing match even their weight differences are far different from each other. It's about money and it's what we are all thinking for the reason why Mayweather agreed. Mayweather is retired but I think he is still utilizing his strength and take a chance in making money thru his boxing skills. Shall we expect another Mayweather odd exhibition match?
