    JS Jr would be a tough chew for Big Red. Canelo is a more skilled boxer as he should be because this is his life/
    Joe was still working construction when almost killed my boy B Hop.

    This would be a fun fight but I see Canelo win on the cards.
    Hands down the toughest fight for Canelo

    I like Smith, but let's face it, he's not very fast and he's easy to it. he does constantly come forward and that tpe of pressure can wear a smaller guy out, kind of like a heavier version of Margarito vs Cotto, but I think all of Smith's shortcomings play right into Canelos hands....
    honestly if Canelo does fight again at 175, I think Smith would be his best choice
    it would still be a tough fight, that constant pressure from Smith would be no joke, and Canelo.would have to knock him out cause Smith would never stop coming forward....
    but let's keep it real Smith would give him every opportunity to score the KO
