    This is why I don't like this fight. Canelo Alvarez has more fierce and genuine competition at 168 - 175 pounds divisions.

    I don't really rate David Benavidez or some of the other guys at 175 very highly 'As I have stated that the middleweight to light heavyweight divisions is under par'.

    But at-least all of those fighters, don't care who Canelo Alvarez is 'And they all want to beat him up'.
    Absolutely agree.

    Sportsmanship and respect are fine, but that was cringe worthy!

    At one point Makabu put his hand on his heart and bowed to Canelo like he was standing in front of his King.

      Everybody starts somewhere.. He already lost to Floyd, who came from lower than lightweight

        Canelo just fought the other week and has seemingly already lined up his next bout. I like when cash-cows conduct themselves like this.

          Smith was taller than Makabu tbh. So was Kovalev.

          This is going to be an easy night for Canelo

            Floyd didn't dare step up to 160, Crawford won't step up 2 divisions to fight a no skilled big man.
            Home advantage, size advantage they are all advantages why nel O critics trying to change logical thought and ideas? Why drain nel O 2lbs, it's because of size advantage and nel O weren't particularly great back then?
            If crawford stepped up two weight classes to fight a no skilled big man he would be ran out of boxing by the real fans

              True but it’s not just about height Makabu is wide dude all around.

                Instead he steps up one division and gives us fights against old washed up non champions and one legged c level fighters.
