    Agreed. But people will still call it a duck.

    SMW is trash, always has been with the exception of few true P4P talents(who made their bones at the weight).
    Canelo will face one of the best, yet weakest links in the division, and he will absolutely shine on the night.

    Canelo is a P4P standout, while Ryder is a domestic level guy. He just happens to be bigger and be among the top of the division due to a weak talent pool.
    Alvarez will just toy with him.

    You think Canelo beats Smith? Smith is one big mofo.

    He was avoided by Martinez, Sturm, Zbik, Chavez Jr., Quillin, Froch, Eubank Jr., Saunders, Cotto, and for about 2 years by Canelo.

    Wow, two guys finally manned up and took him on, so what are you implying? That let's everyone else who ducked him off the hook? Does that somehow mean magically he was never ducked in the first place?

    Yes, you can be ducked for years, then finally when people think you're old and shot enough to beat, they'll take you on.

    And what? Is making money a bad thing now?

    To be honest, he's had two tough fights. I'll give him a break on this one. It's a **** opponent but can be forgiven.

    The point is, if GGG was as much as a monster as his fans like yourself made out, why didn't he ever step up?

    People are comparing his record to Hopkins......But the comparison to Hopkins is pointless because Bernard then went and had a successful career at higher weights.

    There's no way GGG can do that now, Callum Smith would most likely stop him.

    Hopkins was never built up as this unbeatable monster like GGG has been......
    GGG has been proven to be vastly overrated.

    I haven´t seen much of Smith. But i do know he likes to take his time, which would play into Canelo´s hands.
    I see Alvarez just being levels above Smith and Smith's size won't bail him out.

    Size is overrated, especially if there is such an immense gap in talent. (then again i haven´t seen much of Smith so the gap might be a small one)

    Eubank Jr., Ramirez, Benavidez, Holzken, Lemieux, Sulecki, Szeremeta, Baysangurov, Chebotarev have nothing lined up, why not fight them? Even old man Abraham would be preferable to Fielding.

    And.... Jermallo has nothing lined up. Why Canelo no fight him? He ducking! He ducking!

    He'll probably voluntarily vacate, he has no intention of staying there, I doubt he'd want any of Zurdo, Callum or Benavidez. Even though I don't think they're that great, the size disparity would be too great to overcome.

    I know you dont like canelo thats cool

    this is a meaningless stat busy as long as it's not ppv I won't complain

    if he fights a **** fight after this I'll be disappointed

    all roads lead to canelo

    the 4 guys lined up to fight plus ggg or charlo

    plus fellow Mexican Ramirez at 168

    hes got some options
