Canelo Alvarez says he wants $200 million for a fight against David Benavidez because of the risk he would take and the weight advantage he would have over him. Alvarez hasn’t changed his stance about wanting $200M for a fight against Benavidez (29-0, 24 KOs), and the fight does not look like it will ever happen.

Danny Garcia introduced a fascinating scenario to entice superstar Terence Crawford to face him as Crawford moves up in weight and considers a potential matchup with Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in a generational superfight.

Terence Crawford proved why he is one of – if not the – greatest pound-for-pound fighters in the world after winning a world title in a fourth division. Crawford secured a unanimous decision victory over Israil Madrimov to steal his junior middleweight title Saturday at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, putting the Omaha, Nebraska-born fighter in the league of greats who have won belts in four different weight classes.

Edgar Berlanga told the media that Canelo Alvarez isn’t showing signs of decline and that he is not taking him lightly ahead of their fight on September 14th. Fans believe the 34-year-old Canelo (61-2-2, 39 KOs) is on the downside of his career after watching him labor to a twelve-round decision against Jaime Munguia last May. Canelo made his opponent look good, and that was hard to do because Munguia is an average fighter.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Canelo Alvarez vs. Edgar Berlanga undercard was announced today for their event on September 14th on PBC on Prime Video and DAZN PPV at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. There’s not much to like about the Canelo-Berlanga undercard to make it an appealing event to purchase. In each case, the fights are bad and not worth being on a PPV event unless they are placed off TV. The undercards one or two notable fights to entice fans because what they have here it’s not getting the job done.
