By Manny Delgado: Canelo vs. Jake Paul, according to Eddie Hearn, is a matter concluded. In boxing, whatever the source, with regard to rumors, supposed and real assertions, it is important to maintain a level of level until a fight is announced and the contracts are signed. If Eddie Hearn’s claims were not enough, Eddy Reynoso came out to say in an interview that the Jake Paul fight is a real possibility.
This supposed fight, apparently a matter, threw boxing fans in an outcry. Twitter / X boxing, in particular, is divided in favor of Canelo, because it is an intelligent commercial decision for him where he is ready to win more than 100 million. On The Converse, there is total indignation on the part of fans maintaining that this fight would be indefensible for Canelo if it happened.
It is an incessant back and forth between boxing fans who was inevitable. A fight between a legitimate boxer, Canelo (62-2-2,39 kos), to say it lightly, which is considered to be the face of sport for his achievements, against a boxer who has become YouTuber, Jake Paul (11-1 , 7 ko’s), which many consider to be mocking sport. This is an event that is purely for the show, or what many call a circus act, all to secure a massive bag for both.
A common thread born from this potential fight, which is a shared feeling of many fans – the collective conscience of boxing fans, if you want – is that if Canelo will take this way of influencer / boxing of celebrities to fill his pockets, He should abandon the belts. He should effectively withdraw from the traditions of boxing sport and be free to continue this new business as he pleases.
The release of the “coward”
An example of the possible implications that this fight would have on the remaining career of Canelo, in parallel, is a shared feeling of professional boxers and sports commentators. In this case, belief is that once you have abandoned in a fight, it is instilled in you and the programming is likely to reappear when things become difficult. Rather than going out on your shield or leaving everything in the ring, you go by default the easier option as a self-service, in short, the release of the coward.
You could say that, in the same way, that if Canelo against Paul becomes a reality after the fight, it would be questionable that Canelo had never made a return as a legitimate fighter, in particular at the end of his career, the programming of ‘Influencers / celebrity boxing now instilled. This can be an expanse of the imagination, but not to help your case is that the previous four Canelo fights against the easily battable opposition testify to what you might consider his early active retirement. It seems that Canelo’s reputation is one of the best in the world, which has beaten the best in a given division in which it resided (obviously excluding the light heavy goods vehicle against Bivo and the loss of Mayweather, as well as Golovkin) is a thing of the past.
Canelo, being as accomplished as him, is still not without his criticism. The insatiable appetite of boxing fans rarely finds the realization of any respective boxing careers, and fans generally have the impression of being able to do more. In this regard, one could say that Canelo takes the path of the coward. After all, fans are always categorical about the possibility of Canelo against Benavidez, despite the fact that Benavidez is no longer in division 168 and even spoke of potentially going to Cruiserweight to challenge Zurdo Ramirez.
Is Canelo’s hunger simply more there because he no longer feels needing to prove something else, feeling as if he had accomplished everything he needed? You can deduce that this is the case and personally what he really feels given his declarations in the previous interviews as well as his actions with the fights he recently taken. Boxing purists are very obviously disagreed and believe that he must continue to defend his titles against opponents who deserve the opportunity or fight Benavides, who, in the opinion of many, will remain an important asterisk on his inheritance He withdrew without fighting “Mexican Monster.
Canelo retirement tower
It seems that Canelo’s retirement tour will continue, but what no one could expect was the legitimate possibility of the circus performance which would be Canelo vs. Paul. Jake Paul, in the past, has often called Canelo on Twitter / X and in his post-combat interviews in what was very obviously lagging behind to become a trendy subject on social networks, no matter that many thought it was Seriously and was really delusional enough to believe he could win against Canelo. However, if that were the case, he would fight real boxers and, not recently, a retired legend of Mike Tyson, who, during their fight and now, is an elderly person with bad legs.
Marketing tactics at Jake Paul’s trolls and the so-called “illusions” are about to manifest in reality a real fight that no one previously saw the possibility of occurring. It is a dream of youtuber pipe. They say that money speaks, and here we have a perfect example of money on what you could say is a lack of dignity. But who would refuse the opportunity of more than 100 million? For the simplest professional fight in your career. And who can say that this fight really happens? After all, in three days, Canelo vs. Crawford was almost announced, then immediately canceled.
