    Canelo beat him clearly in the rematch. GGG has already had two bites of the cherry, there are more deserving fighters and bigger challenges out there for Canelo now.

    Not sure about that. BJS isn’t a legit SMW. He’s a chubby middleweight and he hasn’t looked good in a long time. We will see but he’s probably the weakest overall choice at SMW. Smith didn’t look great in his last fight but I think he’d be a tougher opponent for Canelo. I’m watching either way.

    Nobody believes he only won 2 rounds up to that point?

    All 3 judges had Canelo winning rounds 2, 3, 5 & 6. And 2 out of the 3 judges gave Canelo the 7th as well.

    That's 2 nobodies for you.

    Callum Smith looked terrible in his last fight. BJ's is the best boxer at smw and will get up for this fight. This is not a cherry pick by any stretch BJs is slick, a southpaw and he's tough.

    If ggg have the power in his punches? Then he should've ko or tko canelo in the 2nd fight. Look at what fury did to wilder in the rematch after he was robbed of a decision in the first fight? If fury could do that by tko wilder in the rematch? Than why couldn't the knockout power of ggg do the same to canelo in the rematch? Roy Jones even said that ggg made a mistake by going backward with canelo being the pressure fighter cause what ggg and his team said in the first fight? Canelo lost cause ggg was being the aggressor coming forward. Well canelo did that in the rematch coming forward. So who's fault is that? It was ggg fault in the rematch. Ggg is an idiot. Now lets see if ggg can ko canelo in the third fight.

    I would like to see ridiculously tall weight bully Callum Smith take his first official loss.

    Even this very old version of GGG tears through him.
