Well being in Canada I am now more certain to be buying Beterbiev Smith as a PPV. I probably was anyways but without this free Charlo option the deal is more sealed provided my cable company offers the PPV or a stream is offered. As Beterbiev is based in Montreal it will likely be an $80 ppv here. Beterbiev Brown was $70 to $80. I did not buy that one as it was a Friday and not worth it but Berterbiev Smith is likely going to be something else.
It could be fight of the year. Both guys come to bang!
You’re doing the right thing Pete, this just made it easier for you. Beterbiev – Smith is bombs away, must see.
Any sniff of Canadian dna and the northern broadcasters turn boxing matches into over priced ppv events. Even if on free tv in the US.
I’m sorry he’s injured and I wish Charlo well and a speedy recovery, but I didn’t care anything about this fight. His career is just kinda… there. There’s nothing really exciting going on with him and there hasn’t been for awhile. He’s been around good fighters, he still is, but he’s probably not going to fight any of them. They’ll reschedule this one in a month or two or whatever it is, then he’ll come back sometime next year against….. Adames?
What a shame this potential fight of the year candidate is postponed… actually, who cares. No need to postpone
You all will be watching when either Charlo is getting in the ring.
I won’t watch this Charlo. His brother I will always watch since he actually fights everyone rather than just talk about it
OK, it happens but when is the last time he fought? These guys barely fight once a year and this happens.
I have a funny feeling that perhaps Charlo is trying to line something else up??!! Higher reward perhaps!
I was thinking the same thing
Well it’s definitely not hard to find a higher reward opponent than this one.
lol, well said Jay! He’s stepping out of this one for… maybe a rematch with Brandon Adams.
Tickets were not selling plain and simple so “I hurt my back” this their adopted home and nobody cares period all talk and no substance
Charlo hurt his back ducking fight people actually want to see.
Pointless fight. When is Charlo gonna fight a significant opponent? I’d like to see him fight Lara, that’s the only decent middleweight within the PBC. Forget about the Benevidez fight. I don’t see that happening. Charlo doesn’t seem interested. All talk
Charlo is boxing’s poster child for NABE privilege. All he has to do is fight anybody once a year and the establishment annoints him as a top 10 pound-for-pound fighter, and the undisputed middleweight champion of the world. All without fighting a single primed significant fighter in his whole career. Why is nobody else as sick of the NABE as I am? Are you really that scared of being called a racist anymore?
What is a NABE? Enlighten me.
sulecki doesnt get a paycheck maybe he will get another opponent as for the charlos a lot of talk nothing more
