Got some legs this and both with DAZN/Matchroom or whatever so I could see this happening next summer. Kovalev named too?! Is he planning to go all the way up? This content is protected This content is protected
Now he is on DAZN I can see a slight possibility he could fight over here as he doesn't need to rely on PPV money. I still don't think it will happen though.
I’d imagine it would still be on SKY PPV over here, probably doing 7/800k buys and a big Wembley attendance added on top of the DAZN money.
Guess it depends what his deal with DAZN is. I'm not sure they would be too happy with him fighting in the afternoon. If he come over though I'll be there!
Been hoping for this for ages. Callum has already got revenge for Paul. I’d love it 10000 times more for him to get revenge for Liam. Can’t stand Alvarez. I honestly think Smith would stop him mid to late.
Ordinarily, I would say that Smith is way too big but Canelo is a special fighter. I know a few people on here don’t find him palatable or perhaps feel he is overhyped but I think he’s elite. He’s improving all the time and keeps showing us different things. Smith really works behind that ramrod jab but the upper body/head movement that Canelo demonstrates is brilliant. He reminds me of Mike Tyson in that respect when the big heavyweights tried to land the jab on him, he used his brilliant movement to get into range before landing big head & body shots. I think Canelo could win legitimate world titles not only at 168 but even a cherry pick at 175 should the opportunity arise. He’s a drug cheat, he’s had gift scorecards at times but he is destined to be an ATG.
Canelo will have his usual weight stipulations in place so Smith has to starve himself before any fight. Loves all his advantages does canelo
This fight will not happen in the uk . This will go to Vegas or maybe Dallas we’re canelo will be safe with the judges
Canelo is absolutely brilliant, he will go down as an all time great and he’s definitely elite but there’s only so far one man can go. Smith is absolutely enormous at super middle. His power is devastating too, I know Canelo has shown a granite chin thus far but it’s going to be a completely different kettle of fish. Canelo is gona have to get inside a lot to stop Smith getting his jab off which will then leave him open to the trademark body shots. It would be a great match up and I wouldn’t like to call it either way.
Yep, the PED’s does tarnish it. Many great fighters have been done for it, it doesn’t sit right with me. However, his resume’ and elite level skills will ensure that he will retire an ATG.
A drugs cheat ends up in my hall of shame along with PED Fury, PED Povetkin etc. These cheats should have been banned for life and are a disgrace to the sport of boxthing along with the corrupt clowns that get their pockets lined allowing them to continue.
