    Be surprised if it happens

    He’s already easily top 3, an argument could be made for #1. It’s not like the Floyd era where there’s a clear #1, arguments can be made for a multiple guys. Beating Smith would put him top of the heap without doubt.

    Beating him how? Like GGG, where he gets a UD just because he makes it to the final bell?
    Even if he KOes Smith it would be his first real victory over a top fighter after a series of robberies.

    The fight would be cancelled pre fight due to one of a failed drug test or them pulling out when they can't stack their wraps or pre fill out the scorecards.

    Get UKAD all over that **** that repulsive ginger toad is on more juice than the winner's rostrum of Mr Olympia. So much juice that he'd probably explode even if he only upped his dose by a picogram.

    Personally I'd rather see him fight Benavidez because I wanna see him take a Gavril II type beating but I'll settle for Smith breaking his ribs.

    He beat GGG clear second time round, and as the naturally smaller man. There aren’t 7 or even 6 rounds to give G.

    Canelo cares about legacy so I could see him taking this fight. I can't see him winning it though but wouldn't be surprised if he pulled it off. Smith looked bad a few times when he fought midget journeymen.

    According to only 20 percent of people, who watched the fight. Most fans and boxing experts scored both fights for GGG.
    Also, Canelo tested positive for steroids right before the second fight without getting DQed. Other athletes got 4 years for clen.

    Most fans on here maybe, but the again he’s the most hated fighter on the site. Out in the real world most people I know thought GGG win the first and Canelo the second, I. Two very close fights.

    Most boxing experts did not score the second fight for GGG.

    Wow how great would that be?this guy doesn’t need home advantage anyway and for its worth I’d have him favourite to beat Smith by body shot KO.

    I think he surprised a lot of folk against Groves who himself is a smart fighter,totally outboxed Groves and every shot seemed to hurt or surprise Groves.
    Fielding is trash let’s call a spade a spade here.

    There almost certainly will be one,Smith and team should stick to their guns on that if asked.
    Gotta say a win against Smith would be a sensational win for Canelo.
