If he brings that motivation and form with all things being equal I am quite certain he beats Canelo. I see Smith start fast and build a strong lead as he has the height and reach advantage. Canelo fighting back mid rounds but Callum finishing strong.

The only worry I have is the judges but a decisive lead will be enough to win the fight.

Ok so... so much for the size advantage. Box checked off.

Judges. Ahh.... yeah, THERE'S a worry. Seems the fight's in Texas (Why TF doesn't Canelo fight anywhere outside of Vegas and Texas??). Thankfully, crowd noise won't be a factor to sway already biased judges.

But as to what you stated: "... but a decisive lead will be enough to win the fight." C'mon man.

You're a veteran boxing fan, just like me.

Do you really think a decisive lead will be enough to win the fight?

If it's not a knockout, there would have to be enough knockDOWNS, which of course require 10-8 rounds, to make it mathematically impossible for even CJ Ross to give the fight to Canelo.
