    seems like a mismatch, but is it


    Canelo didn't do an amazing job on matthew hatton and Ryan Rhodes gave him a fight


    smith would beat both of those fellows

    I agree. I don't think it's a mismatch. But what I reckon will happen is Canelo will come in overweight, take a relatively small fine and because he's so big, beat up Smith , but Smith will keep his title. Everyone's a winner.....except the punters who get conned yet again.

    I want Canelo tested. Has he got a vagina or not?

    He's ginger and those omens are not good. He is a corporate lackey boy and won't take the risks until the risks are aged.

    He is the definition of an albino turkey.

    Canelo fought both of those guys when he was 19. Liam Smith drew with some tomato can not long before that and when he was 21, which also doesn't mean anything today, just saying.

    I was wondering if there has been a worse HBO PPV?

    I have never even seen Smith fight which means most fans haven't unless you are British most likely. Canelo may not even be the best at his weight. He could potentially be 4th best. This would be a fine boxing after dark main event or even a good undercard. It's nowhere near a PPV main event status.

    Maybe some Mexicans are dumb enough to buy it because canelo is their best fighter but hopefully Americans aren't that stupid.

    Saw they have Luis Ortiz vs UStinov on as well. Decent but should be a blow out for Ortiz. If they don't put a couple of serious fights on there as well then it's an horrible PPV card agreed.

    His last two fights have been PPV for sure, can't remember about the few before that. The undercard for the Khan fight was hurting as well, so I guess this is the format

    They are really scraping the barrel with his ppv fights then.

    Yest you have Thurman v Porter free tv. Thank you Al Haymon we appreciate your endeavours.

    Nobody is supporting fighters financially like the UK right now. That's why you have so many belts from guys that are considered the weakest belt holder in X division or Y division. USA used to corner the market on weakest belt holders, or Puerto Rico or Mexico because they supported their fighters so well. If you make money you will get a belt.

    You are doing well at the top of the game as well right now but you have to see how many soft seats the UK has right now.

    Gotta hand it to Canelo and his team, who are nothing if not extremely shrewd.

    Fight UK favorite Liam Smith at 154.... sneak up to 160 (without GGG noticing) to fight Saunders.... then choose from any of a series of undersized or underpowered potential opponents, while GGG continues to wait on the marinating table.

    Too bad there aren't a few more Khans (high profile, undersized, weak-chinned, too-gutsy-for-their-own-good) for Canelo to score devastating KO's against. I'm sure Team Canelo is working overtime to dredge some up. Gotta count on at least a 20 pound advantage on fight night no matter who the opponent, though. Too bad Porter went and lost to Thurman, thus ruining THAT potential fight.

    How long till GGG turns 40?

    I think this is a quality match up!! It's not PPV for sure because of Smith being Unknown to the masses. But the people who actually know Liam and how good of a boxer and a tough lad he is, we know this will be a great match up. I've been to three of Liam's fights recently and his last fight although it was easy he ended him in clinical style. Listening to the interviews before hand all the boxers were saying how sharp and switched on he was for this fight, just warming up on the pads you could see that Liam meant the business. Frank warren had told him he could deliver this fight and he has and full credit to Frank for doing that!

    Liam needs this break to show his level and he's big for the weight and can get inside and has a good defence. If people think this will be a walkover they will be surprised, I'm expecting a good competitive match up and I'm rooting for Liam all the way!!! He will do better than Khan I can promise you that

    Hope you're right Tam, if Liam turns him over then that would be a groundshaking result.
