    Maybe Kovalev was used up but going up to 175 and beating him is no small feat for a guy that started at 147. Beating Smith will be no small feat if he does it. Beating GGG in the rematch was no small feat. The list goes on. Maybe he does have everything his way, but at the end of his career we are going to look at his list of opponents and be like “F me that’s an impressive list of opponents he had every advantage against”
    True, I think most have given Canelo credit for taking on the best super middleweight in the world.
    At the end of the day do we want the best to fight the best or to put a guy down?

    I’ve never and will never like Canelo. But he’s going to have a lot of top top names on his CV when it’s all said and done.

    True.

    And the best loss.

    If Canelo beats Callum Smith then he’s P4P number 1.

    Crawford has done nothing at 147 to put him at number 1.

    If Canelo beats Callum Smith he should show us all he's truly #1 by going up to challenge Beterbiev. Silence all doubters and haters.

    Outside of Beterbiev, I think this is the hardest fight for Canelo to take and much respect for him to take this.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hm, I think we have again a different opinion, Bivol is certainly better than Callum, in fact Beterbiev being almost 36 years old is very possible "The poker face" to be the best in the division right now.

    With Arthur being 36 years old next month he will probably marinate (I hope you have your diner before read it ) it until the fifth wave of covid pass.

    It will be a hard fight for Canelo, the height difference will be a worry?

    Ha! I wouldn't expect anything less from Mr. Cinnamon.

    I’m soooo looking forward to this fight.

    Callum is a really good fighter and I love his sharp left hook.

    Canelo is taking that P4P spot from Crawford if he’s successful.
