I actually think Canelo beats Callum Smith now. As prior to this fight I may have sided the other way slightly.
I still think Callum is a problem for everyone at 168.
Agree, I have just changed my opinion on who wins now.
Honestly, Callum Smith would perform better than Kov. There would be hard jabs, not that pitty patty punches. Smith has youth and vigour who would give Canelo a lot of problems.
