David Banavidez says he thinks Canelo Alvarez wants $ 300m to fight against him. He believes that Turki Alalshikh could give him to face him, because it would be such a big struggle.
Canelo against benavidez: $ 300 million?
The Mexican star Canelo is reportedly receiving $ 150 million to fight against Terence Crawford on September 13. It’s not even a fight that interests a lot of the US fan base. Benavidez is a fight that fans want to see nationwide.
Canelo (63-2-2, 39 food) has a three-match agreement with Turki. His next battle after his defense against Crawford is expected to be against one of these three fighters: Hamzah Sheeraz, Conor Benn or Chris Eubank Jr. It would be another one in which the American fans would not have much interest.
“I wouldn’t go after 168, but it is now possible that all promoters work together,” David Banavidez said Seconds When asked if he believed that a fight with Canelo Alvarez could happen as part of his three-match agreement with Turki Alalshikh. “What does he want? Turki can give him what he wants. ‘
Benavidez is the battle that Turki Alalshikh should have made for Canelo for September, rather than using the 38-year-old Crawford and pushing the fight against the throat of fans.
Turki Alalshikh: Will he pay?
Turki may not be prepared to meet Canelo’s asking price for a fight against Benavidez because he does not look as interested in his career as at Crawford. He seems to love fighters with defense styles, which explains why he chooses to use Shakur Stevenson and Devin Haney for his events. Crawford is not as defensive as those fighters, but it is close.
“Then I’m going to get what I want after beating the s *** out of him and taking his belts,” Benavidez said about Canelo. ‘He probably wants $ 300m or something similar. He can do it. I was focused on Anthony Yarde on November 22. ‘
