Golovkin Vs. C. Smith @168lbs in May??

[Fangedgrowl]

Smith makes more sense if he's trying to build a relationship with Dazn / Hearn I guess. I know GBP are supposed to have their own arrangement with Dazn for the Canelo fights but it's still much less of a tangent that going off with Arum / ESPN.

Or maybe he's turning his back on the Canelo trilogy... hard to see how he's ever gonna get the nod on Canelo with age as his enemy.

Plus isnt Arum with Zurdo. Probably doesnt want to deal with Bob.

I’m a Ggg fan but smith wins this one, it will be a beating too

[MasterPlan]

He needs to do something soon. Him and Canelo can't keep holding up the division (160.)

[Randall Cunning]

Fight the guy who stopped Fielding. Not a bad move, but I don’t see the risk versus reward here. Likely not a big money fight and a loss would pretty much seal his fate of blowing his chances at a Canelo trilogy.

It could be a big money fight if he gets guaranteed money off DAZN per fight. Add DAZN money, Anfield, UK PPV money, itll start to stack up. Smith got The Ring title aswell.

He’ll make plenty of money. That fight will sell out anfield and do very good numbers on sky sports. He won’t make Canelo money but it will probably be more than he made against brook

Would be a good scrap, hope Golovkin take one more big fight before ending his career, this could be it.

From a legacy stands point, it would be GGG's best win and the lineal 168 title + a ABC belt are at stakes.

Regarding the money, a brit stadium + DAZN platform might bring a nice paycheck.

I like it, it is far more dangerous than Rocky Fielding though, Callum probably beats GGG at 168. Callum is a BIG 168, but forget size, Callum actually have some SKILLS

Of course he is going to get backlash for not going up for Ward but going up for Callum but that was YEARS AGO also UnAbel Sanchez was the one who created that situation by running his mouth

[UNBIASED BOXING]

That's a bad fight for Golovkin. He probably loses. Maybe even gets stopped. He might have a granite chin at 160, but this is a fighter who packs a big punch and is a very large guy himself.

Dude is 6'3" with 78" reach and made George Groves look small/walked right over him.

I don't see a way for Golovkin to win this fight, especially when he is past his prime.

I would love to see it. I think Golovkin will actually do better against 168 lbs not named Canelo. They are not as quick or as athletic as the 160 pounders, plus with GGG new jab first style he can box more to set up power shots. I think it is a good fight for both fighters.
