Both GGG and Canelo were exposed a little in their respective fights. Both will do well vs each other. And so, why don't you admit GGG was exposed vs Brook? Tagged repeatedly, legs buckled once, bloodied nose, Abel grinding on him, looked clueless for a couple rounds. Just like Canelo was exposed a little when he was catching some solid shots from Smith, GGG was exposed in the Brook fight a little. It happens. Just admit it.Canelo got completely exposed. He fought a slow guy with no power, who was way smaller, with a shorter reach, and was still eating tons of shots, and still took 8 rounds to get rid of him. You can see why GBP want to wait until GGG gets old. Canelo has no chance against prime GGG.Comment

I don't know Boo Boo. But Smith gives The Charlos, Lara, and Trout hell. Lara is the only one I see beating him for sure, because of his out side boxing style, and unwillingess to engage, But the Charlos will fight, and when they do, they will be in a fight. Same as Trout. You have to watch the mannor of his punches. Short, and correct. His defence is very good, and he hits hard. He was in with a special fighter tonight, but was impressive in his skill, and toughness. Any fighter will tell you that a Champion is a Champion no matter their resume, and you have to give them credit. I am just giving Smith his.Comment

Like GGG was happy getting his nose bloodied and looking clueless for a couple rounds vs Brook? That kind of happy?Comment

Yeah, those 51K+ Canelo fans must've thought it was terrible to have to pay money to see a fighter they no longer like.

Damn Good Performance! It kinda sucks that he will be given no credit from it.
Make no mistake, when he does fighting GGG I see that fight being 50/50, maybe slightly 55/45 GGG but ABSOLUTELY Canelo has what it takes to beat GGG and I think GGG style is what he looks best against is when guys come straight to him and doesn't use any footwork and is not very defensive
Canelo hand speed was outstanding tonight, looked faster to meComment
