Callum Smith has been feasting on European bums. Canelo will either outbox him or dismantle him.

smith is huge and wouldnt be small at 175 . hes also way way better (and even bigger) then his 1 round ko victim rocky....canelos quicker and sharp but it would be very challenging giving up such huge size to a world class opponent who can whack, take a shot, and is a sharp puncher himself up and down as well as with the jab

and callums much sturdier then rocky and wasnt budged at all by groves, callum did a better job on him then jack, froch, and degale could manage and they didnt just fight euro opponents

6'3 78 inch reach, big framed top smw is a tough tough ask for canelo, itsno dismantle job, fights are won on what is brought inside the ring

Canelo is a thick and strong mfer. He's also slippery to hit when he wants to be. Add in a rehydration clause. I'd say Canelo can beat him.

Smith ain't no Fielding, he can use his height and reach advantage. I guess, he can be problematic for Canelo. I see it as a close decision for Canelo, maybe even objectively for Smith, but controversially for Canelo on cards.

It's about the same close matchup, but I'd even favour Smith slightly.

Canelo can win this, but Smith's size and stylistic advantage takes it here. P4P, Canelo is a much, much better fighter than Smith, though.

I just think you can't bully what you can't hit properly, cleanly. I don't think Smith has the refined jab or command of distance of a Golovkin - not yet in his career anyway. Canelo can negate that power and really cause problems on the inside with his low to the ground balance and sweeping hooks. He's a rock in there, a very dangerous one.

He'd have a better chance than Canelo, and I'd strongly back him to beat Smith.

Alvarez is a better boxer, but Smith can benefit from his size in this one. IMO i dod not like this fight. Alvarez should fight Danny Jacobs it will be an entertaining fight. Smith against Ramirez is something that will proof who is man to beat at SMW :box: :box: :box: Or match against David Benavidez

What's funny is that I think Jacobs can move up and beat Smith. Weird that you think Alvarez would have a chance against Jacobs but not Smith. Really, I think Canelo would struggle with both fighters. Jacobs is a horrible stylistic nightmare. He's big, strong, and a very good boxer on the outside. He can also throw power shots on the inside if he has to.

I think Canelo would do well to rematch Golovkin because he could easily lose to BJS, Jacobs, Derevyanchenko, or Smith for less money.

Fair enough. Just thought it so as you said that Canelo/Jacobs would be entertaining while saying that you do not like Canelo/Smith. Both would be entertaining because they'd be pretty competitive. I just think the styles are what is against Canelo here. He'd be force to stalk, and he's not very effective on the front-foot.

Good thing there is no chance you'd ever be right or knowledgeable. :OhYes:

By the way, your boy Karo Murat just got upset by a complete nobody Swede!
