    I wouldn't be surprised to see Canelo fight Jake Paul next.

    Canelo can move up to CW and fight for 2 belts but not LHW and fight for 4 belts?

    If someone deserves two tittles next, it's Beterbiev.

    It will be a very big fight in Saudi.

    Opetaia vs Cieslak/Rozicki as co-main event.

    We should have undisputed CW champion by the end of 2025

    Yes, I hope I'm wrong but I also think Canelo has mentally checked out from enhancing his legacy and testing himself.

    Beterbiev would obliterate Zurdo

    Oscar wants to milk Zurdo's status for a while yet before cashing him out.

    I hope Turki pushes for it though

    Too great a risk
    Zurdo ain’t as good as bivol or beterbiev
    These are business moves he is making not
    Warrior spirit moves.

    If he were to accomplish such a fea as defeating Zurdo - It Would still be impressive for canelo.

    I have been calling for this fight for years. The issue is Canelo would never fight Zurdo without stipulations. That taints any victory in my opinion because they would pull Zurdo down to a catchweight and force some type of rehydration clause. Not interested if that is the case.
