When it comes to deciding who to marry, many people choose to spend the rest of their lives with a high school sweetheart, college classmate, or someone they met at work. Others decide to tie the knot with someone who they have known their whole lives — and maybe even met at a family reunion.

Money is power. No two men in boxing are currently proving that more conclusively than Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Turki Alalshikh. If you can attract massive amounts of money, you hold power. Alvarez is about to get a $35 million guarantee to face Edgar Berlanga, a +800 underdog whom I wouldn’t see as a value play even if he was a +2000 underdog. Because he brings the money, Canelo can get away with taking a fight he can’t realistically lose and still get paid as if it’s a superfight.
