Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez vs. Liam Smith is NOT a Bad Fight, Explains Hearn

[Shadoww702]

And then what? After letting them land punches on his gloves while taking none in return he stepped up and knocked them out? Is he not allowed to improve?

Just admit it, you want to hate on Canelo so are having a go. Smith is a champion who has as much right to try be great as anyone else.

You the type of fool who wrote of Crolla against Barroso. Should I name all the fighters Crolla has lost rounds to in his career??? How about fights he lost to "bums" .....regardless of the quality of this fight I do know you are an assh0le...

I just HATE the fact that this is on PPV. I'm not gonna knock a fighter for going after his. This should really be over seas instead of in Vegas IMO.

Any idea about the undercard??? I know Ortiz but have heard about anyone else.

So he has to fight people known in America now? I'm not from America, I know who Liam Smith is. Seems to me the problem is you ignorant boxing fans.

How is he the worst Champion? last time I checked the Charlos or Andrade hadn't beaten him. Why should Canelo fight Lara's sparring partners or the guy who continues to call out Lara but then duck the fight?? Wouldn't that be moving backwards?

I mean maybe Canelo wants to collect the belts....it's a good enough excuse for GGG.

Where is hbo based? America. Where does canelo fight? America. so why would he fight somebody Americans don't know? And smith has a vacant belt that was andrade belt. Who was stripped due to inactivity because of a promotional situation. Smith didn't beat anybody to become champion. And smith has no name fighters on his resume. But go ahead and tell us why it's a good fight.


and team canelo has already stated that they will most likely move up after the smith fight. So canelo won't be unifying anything.

And those sparring partners are world champions who have had more TV exposure than Liam neeson. I meant smith. Keep hyping bull**** fights. Fans like you are what's wrong with boxing. You see a clear cherry pick and you still call it legit

Let's start the over/under PPV buys at 150k.

I'm taking under and Canelo used to be one of my FAVORITE fighters!

I really was telling everyone and REALLY beloved it would be against GGG next. I bought all of his fights, etc. And it's just too hard to go from expecting GGG but seeing Liam...

It will be around 200k

How? All people did was bit(h that Canelo needed to Fight GGG or drop the belt. He dropped the the belt, so stfu. Yes he bit(hed out, how does that effect this fight?

Liam Smith is a talented and exciting Champion. I bet he'd beat the Charlos.

based on what ?

has he faced anyone world class yet?

no.

so you're just talking ****e.

It's clearly a massive mismatch.

But it is PPV because it needs to be. Canelo's paycheck and the kinda money a Champion demands to "lose" his belt to Canelo (Lets not act like that not what the unspoken truth to how much a title is worth) is no small fee. More than that I think he wants to fit the mold of a PPV fighter in the Mayweather way, where he is the attraction and it doesn't matter who he fights. It's about making PPV an expectation in his mind I think, but that will backfire.

Haven't heard anything about an undercard yet, shame Crolla is with Hearn because Crolla vs Linares would have been the perfect undercard fight for this.

So the bar for being talented now is beating a legit world class fighter? Sigh....why do you morons bother?

Or were you saying he's not exciting?

Yeah a mismatch......Just go fu(k yourself you fanboy loser. I don't care about your anti Canelo agenda. I'll be putting a sly bet on Smith and rooting for him fight night. And if I'm wrong , guess what? I'll still be balls deep in my girl at the end of the night so you can lol all you want loser, it's boxing and you treat it like it's a ****ing soap opera.

200k?? Really? Even with all the bad publicity Canelo has been getting lately?? Is it going to be PPV over seas as well???

So how can Smith prove himself against a world class fighter if he can't fight one to prove himself???

I am not rooting for Canelo you imbecile. Call it a cherry pick, I call it fighting a world champion that lends the least amount of cross promotional interest and clearly has the most fan friendly style out of the champions.

Once again for you GGG nutsucking fanboys, Canelo is a bit(h who bit(hed out. Just liek Frampton Bit(hed out against Rigo. That does not mean Smith is a ***** fighter.

I mean if golovkin did 100k, I assume canelo is good for double that. But maybe I'm wrong
