    Better than Golovkin vs Brook. There is absolutely nothing good about a mismatch like that.

      The outcome for both the fights were known and the betting odds were also favoring the winner. Smith vs Canelo was better because it was not a bigger mismatch than GGG vs Brook..

        Canelo probably had 10 pounds on him that night; it was a essentially a JMW vs a MW.

          Brooks a better fighter that's for sure... Smith was basic as fk...earmuffs and occasional punches thrown...not hard to beat that...

            Sure, I'm a Brook fan but knew he was too small. I'm just saying, if you think Alvarez will face the other champs at 154, there's no chance. High risk, low reward.

              I'm pinching a loaf fit for pact@rds, as I sit on the can, contemplating boxing, among other things. C

              Smith in my opinion.

                One was a mismatch because of size, the other a mismatch of skill. No real right answer. I'd lean more towards Smith being better but at the same time mismatches should never be on PPV.
