Oscar would have easily beaten Canelo at welterweight and light middle. Oscar have stellar movement, an educated jab, and a cast iron chin himself. And respectfully, Oscar fought everyone he could, he took on the best whenever he could. He didn’t fear anyone. He fight people he hated like an in his prime Mayweather while Canelo used people offending him as an excuse not to fight them. If anyone makes Canelo their de facto hero it makes me suspect they have been in prison and familiar with punkingHnnnggg

“Oscar relies on nothing more than saying ****** things, and that’s why people pay attention to him. But in his company, he does nothing more than say ****** things. That’s all he does. That’s all he knows how to do.” - Canelo Alvarez

Haney Vs. Garcia: Price Drops To $69.99, But Fans Still Ain’t Happy
The promoters of the April 20th Devin Haney vs. Ryan Garcia fight are beginning to notice the fans’ backlash over the steep $80 price for the event on . They’ve now slashed the price to the less painful $69.99.
Unfortunately, the new price point for the Haney-Garcia isn’t nearly low enough for the fans, who are already balking at that number. They want another price drop.
Fans Still See Red: “$40 or We Walk”
- “69 bucks? Still a rip-off!”
- “Make it $40, or I’m finding a stream…”
- “Firesticks to the rescue! Not paying that.”
The undercard is atrocious, and Ryan Garcia has been like he’s a few cans short of a sixbpack during the build-up, talking about his social issues with hardly a mention of his clash with Haney.
Devin’s dad, Bill Haney, is usually the one who does the promoting for him, but he’s not been around much for this promotion.
Without Bill, Devin hasn’t done a good job of creating interest, bragging about himself, and talking about how much of a mismatch his fight with Ryan will be. That’s not exactly what potential PPV buyers want to hear because they already view the fight as a terrible one, with Devin, a sure-thing winner.
Is the Price Drop Too Little, Too Late?
Haney’s last fight against WBC light welterweight champion Regis Prograis on December 9th reportedly brought in an abysmal 30K on , which is reason enough for the organizers of the April 20th event to get the price right this time out.
The cold, hard reality is that WBC light welterweight champion Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) isn’t a popular fighter and definitely NOT a PPV attraction.
Fans of this era prefer exciting fighters who come forward looking to mix it up, like Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz. Haney’s fighting style is archaic and out of fashion.
These late adjustments of 16 days aren’t enough to appease the fans, who are already getting their firesticks ready for April 20th to watch the event free of charge. The promoters are going to have to cave to the fans further, or they’ll be looking at dreadful PPV numbers for this event.
You just can't make this **** up!!! Too funny!!!

They are still both sour about their business partnership that went wrong. Hence why the the grudge and back-and-forth trash talk between the two.
They both probably lost millions when Canelo filed a lawsuit against DLH, DAZN, and Golden Boy Promotions. It is what it is.Last edited by Quiksilva; 04-05-2024, 05:37 AM.
