    I think Canelo vs Brook would be a great fight, but IF Brook wins, and IF Canelo beats Smith, then Canelo would be a 154 lb champ and Brook would be a 160 lb champ. So what would happen there if they were to fight. Where would it be? 160 or 154?

    The WBO doesn’t let a fighter hold its title and titles in another division right, so if Canelo were to challenge Kell at 160 for the MW belts, and he won, he’d have to drop the WBO title. (right?)

    If it were possible to fight at 154 and have it be for the all the belts, that would be interesting. But I’m not going to disrespect Smith like that and just say it’s assumed that Canelo wins. I would think the fans would want to see the winner of Brook GG fight the winner of Canelo Smith, but regardless of who wins that’s two different weight classes, so expect craziness to ensure. (and lets not forget Brook would still be WW champ)

    If Brook loses a close but competitive decision, him fighting the winner of Canelo vs Smith at 154 may still be possible. If he gets completely annihilated / KO'd, then probably he’ll go back down to 147, and possibly fight someone there. (maybe Khan if he don’t fight DSG?)

    Without question Yeller would be there begging, but he'd be outmanuevered by Money May....the NEW...Undisputed MWCotW......Floyd Money Mayweather. :yep
