Canelo Alvarez vs. David Benavidez: Purse Negotiations Remain a Hurdle
Negotiations for a highly anticipated fight between Canelo Alvarez, the undisputed super middleweight champion, and David Benavidez, the former WBC super middleweight champion, seem to be at an impasse.
A Dream Match for Fans:
Boxing fans have been eager to see this matchup for a while. Both fighters are known for their aggressive styles and punching power, making a potential fight between them a potential thriller.
Financial Hurdles:
According to reports, the biggest obstacle to the fight is the financial demands. Canelo Alvarez, one of boxing’s biggest pay-per-view draws, reportedly seeks a purse of $200 million for the fight. This figure is significantly higher than anything Benavidez has earned in his career. Reports also suggest that Benavidez’s team finds the offer unrealistic.
Benavidez Open to Negotiation:
While acknowledging the significant pay gap, Benavidez has expressed his willingness to negotiate. In a recent interview, he stated, “If somebody could come up with a lot of money, we can make the fight happen.”
Impact on the Fight:
The high purse demand from Canelo Alvarez casts doubt on the immediate possibility of this fight. However, Benavidez’s openness to negotiation leaves a glimmer of hope.
Looking Ahead:
Boxing fans will be waiting to see if a compromise can be reached. If not, both fighters have other viable options. Canelo Alvarez could explore fights with other champions in the super middleweight division. Benavidez could continue defending his WBC super middleweight title (which he recently reclaimed) and build his case for a future fight with Canelo or another top contender.
Focus on the Facts:
This rewrite avoids inflammatory language like “lame excuse” and focuses on factual details from reliable sources. It also presents the perspectives of both fighters and acknowledges the complexities of fight negotiations.
