    Canelo will destroy Smith stylistically. That body is getting tenderised.

    Hopefully they double KO each other. I would root for Canelo though, ever since Smith said the Ryder bout was 'easy'.

    is there anyone that was in the possible running for perhaps the biggest pay day they will ever see, not aware that they may get the call? do they call themselves PROFESSIONAL fighters?

    Guessing you’re a PBC fanboy. Smith is the ring magazine champ and has a better resume that Plant. He’s no scrub. Canelo is the favourite but this is a good fight.

    Massive size difference between the two. People will point Canelo beating a CW world champion in Kovalev but Kovalev doesnt have the physical size advantages that Smith has.

    Kovalev
    Height: 6'0
    Reach: 72 1/2


    Canelo
    Height: 5'8
    Reach: 70 1/2

    Smith
    Height: 6'3
    Reach:78

    Smith is getting tenderised and served up.

    Canelo ends him mid-late with bodyshots. I don't think this is even that competitive.

    I can't believe there's folk who actually think Plant is a better fight than Smith.

    I think this is perfect timing for Plant. He needs a real solid challenger, maybe two , to test himself then he would be better prepared for Big Red.
    Smith will make a decent fight for about 9 rounds

    No, but I would enjoy seeing Plant getting knocked out way more.

    I like Plant; after all, his last name is the same, the song remains the same, as Robert from Led Zeppelin

    Don't watch the fight, go on and watch Gennady "The Tomato Can Devourer" Golovkin feast on yet another hopeless opponent. The Tomato Can Devourer has all the weeks in the world to prepare for that fiasco.

    Maybe Callum overcomes the ultra short training camp and puts up a decent scrap.

    So rumors are that it will be in Texas. Maybe it'll be in Cowboy stadium with fans allowed to attend? Or the Houston baseball stadium?

    kinda agree with everybody, thats too much body not to target. and red has shown he can hurt big guys no problem. i can also see an uppercut as smith tries to tie him up inside with his arms over canelos. little half step back and BOOM!
