By fighting Fielding for that smw semi-wba strap Canelo would probably aim for a fight with Callum Smith (WBSS winner). Also at smw Canelo has a few good possible opponents that would increase the latino viewers like Ramirez , Benavidez and Uzcategui. I think Canelo/his team did a good move. People would say he's daring to be great by moving up and also his ATG's status would get solid.

Meanwhile GGG will be left at mw division with real threats like Jacobs/Derevyanchenko, BJS/Andrade, Jermall and I suspect that guys like Hurd and Munguia will move up at mw in a few years. GGG should tfight Murata in Japan and call it a day. :TU:

Probably only Smith fight will be big enough for Canelo, who is arguable the biggest boxing star today. I believe, at the MWs GGG fight #3, Saunders or Jacobs bouts will grab more attention.

Smith and Ramirez I'd say. GGG vs BJS/Andrade winner is a nice one but I think GGG would also make good money with less risk by fighting Murata in Japan.

I don't think Ramirez will be allowed to fight Canelo, and I don't think Canelo will be allowed to fight Smith.

Canelo is the cash-cow of boxing. They would be glad to fight him. Canelo will fight whoever will solidify his ATG status. I tell you that Canelo would rather fight Callum at 168 then go down and be chased by Jacobs and Jermall. :OhYes:

Yeah he would , people talking about size difference like that's somehow going to stop canelo getting the W

A good big man beats a good little man but the skill level here is miles apart

Canelo 100 times out of 100

both Charlo and Jacobs are biggerr than Canelo, so if they really want to chase him there is no problem of chasing him at 168 :box: :box: :box: . But as i said, Alvarez will go down to 160 again.
