Saul Álvarez, TKO, R6
Easy win for Canelo, it's just a question of how long Avni Yildirim can last.
Zhang vs. Forrest
Zhilei Zhang, TKO, R4
I like what I've seen of Zhilei Zhang and he certainly has enough power to end this early if gets off to a good start.
Gigliotti vs. Aponte
Aaron Aponte, DEC
In his pro career, all 7 of Harry Gigliotti's opponants have a combined total of 0 wins between them. I don't care if Aaron Aponte only has 1 win over a 2-4-0 guy, I'm picking against Gigliotti as a matter of principle.

I'll watch just to see if Canelo is gonna go for a quick KO or a showboating UD win. In a fight as uncompetitive as this, he can not only win but can also chose the style of the fight. I'm tempted to put a tiny bit on Yildrim just in case.

No, I'll be watching the UFC on my laptop (my main focus) and stream this fight on my phone (secondary distraction) just to keep an eye on it.

So Canelo runs the promotion and main events every card? This is the most corrupt ******** I've ever heard in my life.

Canelo Promotions is a thing, they actually just had their license approved for Las Vegas.
But most of the promoter work is done by Matchroom, Eddie Hearn and the broadcast DAZN.
Of all the corrupt ******** in boxing Canelo having his own promotional company isn't really a big deal. It's actually quite common for top draw boxers to do this. Golden Boy was started by Oscar Dela Hoya when he split from Ole Bob and Top Rank. Same with Mayweather Promotions. Joshua has his own, the Klitschkos, GGG, many many more.
I think it's a good thing as it means that the actual fighters get more of a share of the money generated by a big fight instead of greasy ass promoters like Ole Bob, Shady Al Haymon or worst of all Don ******* King!!!!
I'm all for fighters getting paid better.
Again, of ALL of the ******** in boxing this isn't the thing to get mad at

Lol!!!! I actually don't blame Canelo for this joke fight. The ****** WBC has obviously been paid by a friend of Yildirim (apparently he is friends with Turkish royalty!) It's so corrupt that these ******s aren't even hiding it anymore!!!!
Zhang vs. Forrest
Zhilei Zhang, DEC
I'm sure I said this last weekend but how can you be 22-0 and not fought anyone good???? Kinda like how you can not fight in 2 years, that last fight be a loss yet still be a no. 1 contender for the WBC World Title!!!!!
Moraga vs. Castro
John Moraga, TKO, R3
Look who's just appeared on the card. Former UFC Flyweight Title challenger Jon Moraga!!! His last boxing match was against another prospect(a better 1 than Castro IMO) and he was given no credit by the judges. He'll know now that he needs to go for the KO or put it on this kid!! I'm rooting for him

Damn this guy still amazes me. 54-1-2 and his only “lost” was to Floyd Mayweather Jr. Impressive!!

Yeah, DAZN started making the Canelo fights available on PPV too for people who don't want the subscription to DAZN.
Not sure why you'd do that though because 1 PPV costs nearly as much as a years subscription!!
I only have the dazn subscription coz it's £1.99 per month in the UK!! I use the other method for all the other big fights on ESPN,Fox and Showtime!! Ha
