BS rumor. Canelo will not fight Mbilli, trust me. He will fight winner of Mungia Rezendiz.

If he fights Munguía again, that’ll be a shocker. Out of all the recent Canelo opponents, he’s definitely one of the less deserving especially looking at his form following the fight.

Smart move for both guys if it happens MBilli needs the fight for the money and the name on his rez Saul needs the fight for the money and do not styles make fights ?

[Haka]

If this opponent comes to fight instead of move and jab like Scull and Crawford then vintage Canelo will be back.

[STREET CLEANER]

This fight will indicate where Canelo is. His age with wear and tear might show up or he will counter Mbilli hard slowing him down considerably.

Rooting for an Mbilli win here. Even though Mbilli is right there in front of you the whole time and there to be hit, this current version of Canelo loses against any live opponent.

[ShoulderRoll]

This would be huge if they fought in Canada.

[Oregonian]

If it happens, this may show Canelo's age. At the very least MBilli's physical strength and swarming style will be a tough night out for Canelo. He won't have to find MBilli, he will be right there in front of him exchanging power shots.

-----------------
There is no such thing as "this may show Canelo's age". When Canelo got beat up by Floyd, the excuse was "he was too green". When he got beat by Bivol, the excuse was "he under-estimated Bivol and Bivol was afraid to rematch him". When he got beat by Crawford, suddenly "Canelo was past his prime".

Why are we still making excuses for Canelo?

This fight belongs in Vegas

So Crawford beat a bum, and ducked Ennis, Ortiz, and Fundora.
