Yes Callum Smith may have been a good matchup for Canelo style wise but he was still an undefeated champ who is objectively a top 3 guy in the weightclass. And as I remember Canelo was supposed to fight BJS and then he wanted to fight Plant both "slick" fighters. The elite P4P fighters are able to make top level opponents look bad and nullify them. Smith was trying but most of his power shots were missing/blocked and even the ones that he landed Canelo rolled with. The problem for Canelo opponents is that if you try to to just jab and move and fight negatively you will probably lose a decision or like Kovalev get KO'd late. If you try to brawl or get super aggressive you play to his strengths as a counterpuncher and combination puncher. Plant and BJS would both lose because of their lack of power and wouldn't anything meaningful against Canelo. And big punchers like Benavidez and Beterbiev could be dangerous but Canelo is considerably faster than both and has amazing upper body movement.

My opinion is that Kownacki is pretty easy to hit but on the other hand Wilder can't fight going backwards and Kownacki is an in your face pressure fighter/volume puncher. It would be a good fight.

What do you think?

He made this post on January 18th 2019 about a possible Canelo vs Smith fight. no (pre-written) scorecards needed in that one. maybe canelo will believe his own hype and take the fight later in the year, but he'll be leaving anfield on a stretcher. Canelos a proven 168 fighter now according to his 'fans' so lets get it on after the inevitable robbery of jacobs and see what happens... Then he made this post on November 24th 2019 about the same matchup. If canelo fights smith after that then its a disgrace. He looked awful. Im sick and tired of canelo circling round 3 divisions waiting for an opportune opponent, stay in one damn division and fight the people who deserve it!!!!! Like great champions do! In less than a year Smith went from being Canelo's worst nightmare to a bum. I've heard many of the same narratives about Saunders as well. The lengths these clowns will go to keep up their anti Canelo narratives is embarrassing.

Seems like that with every fight now that is reasonably competitive there are boxing fans complaining that the loser was robbed. Either some people have zero idea how to score fights or they are just extremely biased. Real robberies are fights like Pacquiao-Bradley 1, Whitaker-Chavez, Williams-Lara ect.

Wilder's footwork is terrible, he pulls back in straight lines, almost no head movement, can't fight going backwards, throws hooks wide and sloppy. His technique is just awful. Really Wilder had to know that there would be a fight at some point where he couldn't be bailed out by his power. Or maybe his trainers deluded him into thinking he didn't need to improve his skills.

Who will win this fight?

This is going off of mcdonalds thread.

After some close analysis of these two fights I believe Conor had more success.

He's been looking really good since moving up to MW and put in another great performance over the weekend against Alantez Fox. Hopefully he gets a shot at one of the champs in 2020.

Would Floyd win again or would his brittle hands let him down?

He completely neutralized Suleckis offense tonight. Sulecki took 5 rounds against Jacobs but he couldn't touch Andrade.GGG didn't want to face Andrade for a reason and I would be shocked if he ever does. And I like Canelo but it's obvious that Andrade is a nightmare style matchup for him.

One of the greatest defensive fighters ever getting lit up by some C level dude. Very sad. People should watch this video to remember how slick Rigondeaux was in his prime.

Lets settle this argument. Poll included.

Andy Ruiz has overnight become a bigger star than anybody in his stable. Haymon: 1 Arum: 0

Menayothin is known as "The Thailand Dwarf Giant", "Five Star Grilled Chicken" and also by his newest nickname "TBE" (Thai best ever).

Its getting absurd at this point.

Bute was knocked down with 2 seconds to go. He clearly got up in less than 10 seconds (even if the referee didn't start the count right away). I guess I can see why people are mad at the referee since he took a few extra seconds to start the count than he probably should have but regardless, even if he had started the count right away Bute still would have beaten it. What is the controversy here?

he seems to be getting even more powerful as he moves up in weight. I mean he was a big puncher at 108 and 115 pounds but this is just something else. He just took 3 top 10 118 pounders (Rodriguez was top 5) and destroyed all of them in a combined 6 minutes.

Would you really feel sorry for him? I wouldn't.

This really makes me laugh, people trying to be slick voting after the fight is over. Before the fight last night 95% of the votes were for Hurd, now Williams has more votes. This isn't a "Who won the fight?" quiz guys...

This was a ***** move by Garcia. He moved up to 147 even though his own fans wanted him to stay at 135 to fight Lomachenko. Then this fool saw Lomachenko call him out in his hometown and just a couple weeks later he gives up his belt and ducks again! When will people realize this dude wants no part of Loma.

His head and upper body movement is phenomenal. That really stuck out to me.

wtf is this guy doing? Haymon has been sending him his scraps all year. I mean I like the Easter-Barthelemy fight but that's pretty much an FS1 tier matchup tbh. They spent a bunch of money promoting Shields vs Hammer and it did terrible ratings. They also lost out on signing Devin Haney to DAZN which is a bad look because they featured him on Showbox 3 times before. Not a good year for Showtime boxing.

Buddy is a very experienced and knowledgeable guy. Just like he turned out to be a good fit for Kovalev, I think McGirt is the right trainer for Golovkin at this point in his career.

Brook is Spence's best win and has a win over Porter who is likely Errol's next opponent?

Off of last nights' dominant performance do you believe he is ready for a title shot or does he still need more seasoning?

Hunter is clearly the most likely option for a number of reasons. #1. He's signed with Matchroom. #2. He's already in camp training for a fight. #3. He's American and I know DAZN were pushing for AJ to face an American fighter in his US debut. #4. He's credible enough as an opponent that there wouldn't be a huge fan backlash like there would be if AJ fought Charr. Ortiz would be the best option but i'm not sure that Hearn would be able to make a deal with Haymon to bring him to DAZN or if Ortiz would take the fight on short notice.

3 options.
