    Canelo is a very safe bet as long as you don’t bet him on a 3-way line where you lose a draw. Not a chance in blue hell Smith is getting the decision. I do think he will be very competitive.

    I have never known a fight of this importance met with such a lack of enthusiasm in the UK.

    This is Super Middleweight, the UK have a solid history in the division, Benn, Eubank, Watson, Froch, Calzaghe, Groves, DeGale and others

    Callum Smith is just not known, he is almost irrelevant in British boxing, it's really sad to be honest.

    Nobody should care about this formality.

    Canelo brutality.

    Smith's mojo is gone after getting mauled by The Gorilla

    He can't even do speed bag after that and the late notice

    You need time to get locked in when fighting at this level and to enlist the services of top quality sparring partners

    Does this look like someone who is locked in?

    This is a very good fight, honestly. It makes Canelo a legitimate 3 weight champ and I do pick Canelo to win.

    I'm very excited for this fight. Picking Canelo in hopes that I jinx him.

    He’s going to get wrecked to the body and when that lapse of concentration happens in the ring in a split second Canelo will hammer him. I hope he finds a way to enter the zone and make it competitive.

    I bet he ended up having to spar his brothers and maybe a little six round walk around with Natasha Jonas. Three weeks to arrange top level sparring for the biggest fight of your life when you're having to make a huge leap up in class during a worldwide pandemic? SMH

    I just can't get excited for hardly any Canelo bouts for some reason.

    I’m stoked for this fight. Kind of forgot it was this weekend already. I’m going Canelo by late stoppage via left hook to the body.

    There has been absolutely zero promotion for this fight in the US...how about oversees?
