    Canelos career has been guided extremely carefully since losing to Floyd, he dropped his belt to avoid a prime GGG, fought Cotto instead who was a much smaller fight and past prime and then, instead of facing GGG, he fought Liam Smith, Amir Khan and Chavez Jr, only faced GGG at an age where Canelo himself wants to be retired. Now talks about facing Kovalev in the future who will be 37-38 and been knocked out already instead of a guy his age, like Bivol. Bivol too technical for Canelo, too dangerous. He only fought Jacobs after GGG beat him and Jacobs looked lackluster vs Derevyhanchenko and Sulecki. I dont see him facing Callum Smith unless he looks bad in his next fight and even then he might put up a rehydration clause like he did to Fielding and Jacobs.

    If Canelo faces Callum Smith without a rehydration clause I will be very impressed.

      Callum Smith is just too slow and static for Canelo Alvarez. He is not as athletic as Danny Jacobs is. This would be an easy win for Ginger. He would be ripping Smith with combinations punches to both the body and the head. I say he stops him by the fourth or fifth round.

        I don't think Canelo should fight Smith in September! I think he should fight Munguia is September, and then Andrade in December! Errol Spence Jr. or Callum Smith for May 2, 2020!

          ... Canelo doesn't fight any Spence Jr. or Callum Smith next year in May...

            Everyone tries to sell his belt to Canelo - Fielding, Jacobs, Smiths bros, who's next, Andrade?

              Canelo vs Smith or Benavidez? Strong 168 pounders!

                Sorry, Callum wins this every time, he won’t wait half the fight to engage him, he’ll take centre of the ring

                    I'm done underestimating Canelo. I thought he wasn't fighting Danny Jacobs at first either, but then he did...and won!

                      ... I didn't say those above only "because" of Canelo... Spence actually has no business to end his career by fighting him at this point, while Callum would be imposed a drastic rehydration clause which he couldn't comply with...
