Overview
- Paul, in a Kick livestream Wednesday, said Canelo Alvarez asked for $200 million for a bout and claimed he has the money ready.
- He added that Alvarez said he was “down” on a phone call, though the clip shared by Happy Punch does not include Alvarez confirming it.
- Neither Alvarez nor his promoters or any sanctioning body has confirmed talks or terms for the matchup.
- Paul is still recovering from a broken jaw suffered in a December knockout loss to Anthony Joshua and has questioned whether he will fight again.
- Recent reports link Alvarez to a WBC super middleweight title challenge against Christian M’billi, and Paul’s lack of a current ranking raises questions about whether any bout would be a sanctioned fight or an exhibition.
