The height difference would border on comical. Canelo is obviously better P4P, but I think Smith might be able grind it out.
Especially with Canelo's gass tank issues.
Canelo vs Callum Smith at 168 lbs - who takes this and how ?

Yes, but Smith is known for his ripping body shots.

Canelo probably eeks out a win in this one via hard cash.

Smith by KO or UD. He is simply too big and rangy. He looked extremely sharp against Groves.

Re: Canelo vs Callum Smith at 168 lbs - who takes this and how ?
I'm not a height-maniac whatsoever but at 167 there's a big difference between two top-boxers, one 5'8" & the other 6'3"... exactly...
7 inches plus the reach-advantage plus at least 10 pounds of muscle in-ringweight...that said, i wouldn't write canelo off completely but smith most probably overpowers him, probably knocks him out.
It would be very careless to put canelo in a ring with smith whose advantages are that obvious. Should he really go for him, maybe after fielding, it would really show a set of huge cojones, but also little brain, so i don't think it will happen.
The knockout they just won't risk, that's why they steer clear of callum & pick rocky who's definitely a level below skill & powerwise but will give the red haired wonderboy a tough fight.
Should shit hit the fan dlh always wears the ugly dangling strap-on dildo of destruction... ah... corruption ready to go for some sleazy action to proper roger the poor brit.
I consider it a good choice to go for a title, smith would just be too much for him. very much less risk, same reward in the long run, 3 divison champ.

I can definitely see this fight happening
Canelo will beat Rocky Fielding have one or two fight at middleweight while Smith will pick up the WBC title
Then Smith will be WBC,WBA SUPER,RING MAGAZINE CHAMP
you have Canelo standing at 5 foot 8 and Smith standing at 6 ft 4
Canelo is very strong and has great upper body and head movement,
but I think he will eat right hands all night from Callum Smith and I can see a lot of blood and it'll go to points
you have to go with Smith but don't rule out the little man

You can not win on the judges scorecard against Canelo![]()
