If in this time young Ward, Froch and Kessler would be SMW champs, would Canelo still want to be undisputed smw champ ?

I'm not saying he would win them all,but he is game against in 168 pound fighter in history.
The guy is that damned good.
Out of those fighters listed I only would pick Ward to win and I'm not 100% confident in that pick

[adislav123]

could he knock out prime froch, ward or kessler? i say, maybe!

could he dictate the pace, throw more, land more, get the decision versus froch, ward or kessler?

let's go with maybe again.

i deduct, those fantasy fights would all be quite competitive, high quality affairs.

nelo, froch, ward & kessler are top of the crop super middleweights.

for real! what more is there to say?



everyone has an opinion but given the top quality of those men, any prediction regarding the outcome of those fantasy match ups is nothing more than an absolutely hypothetical, more or less educated guess.

Andre Dirrell from S6 would be a also a tricky fight for Canelo. Lets not forget that Dirrell outboxed Froch.

Anyway, imo fighting guys like Callum (exposed by Ryder), BJS (lackluster fights vs bums@168) and Plant (soft hands&skin) ain't gonna give a clear answear about how competitive would Canelo be vs the S6 top fighters, Calzaghe or RJJ.

After we would see how good Canelo will look vs fighters like Benavidez, Beterbiev and Bivol, then we could have a legit idea.

well, if he beats those guys, im sure it will suddenly be

benavidez (dropped by gavril, split decision), beterbiev (old, dropped by cal johnson), bivol (close decision vs craig richards) etc

Well, atm, there are no better opponents for Canelo than these guys.

People might say that, but do you pick any fighter at SMW right now to beat any of the LHWs mentioned above other than Alvarez? I'm pretty confident all the SMW champs Canelo has battered this year would get bashed up by those guys too.

Good point! BJS, Smith and Plant would get stopped at 175 by top punchers.

Definitely this is a weak smw era and also a great opportunity for Canelo to be the first smw mexican undisputed champion.

Even the Groves, DeGale and Badou Jack era was better than this.

No he’s had close fights against worse comp. He would beat Froch, not Ward.
