avoid risk while holding out for a canelo payday that never comes?

[UNBANNED]

Beterbiev would fight in Anfield, but neither Canelo nor GGG will. GGG has to fight in NYC for his fix

Smith vs. Golovkin @ 168! MAN UP! What ever happened to "Mr. 154-168?" I knew he wasn't bout that life when he said Ward had to come to 164!

[REYESdelBOXEO]

Callum Smith needs to be criticized & pressured for not making the biggest fight’s possible.

0 unification fights? Best opponent is a shot Groves? That made u #1 @ 168?

For the people that say Rocky Fielding is trash , well Rocky Fielding beat John Ryder.

Golovkin is scared of his own shadow , he’s not moving up & fighting you in your back yard. Canelo is #1 P4P , so can’t expect him to bend over backwards for u. Beterbiev at 175 , would be great but u haven’t even unified at 168 so no one believes you.

Dude is a total unknown here in the US & his best win is a shot Groves coming off of shoulder surgery & he was forced to fight him bc it was the tournament final. He's a solid guy, but the way his people handle him leaves alot to question & desire. Aside from coming over to beat N'Dam, it seems like he wants to stay on his side of the pond his whole career. Good luck getting big fights.

Does his side of the pond mean the UK? Because he last fight was in NYC, the groves fight was in Saudi, the fight before that against the kickboxer was in Germany(I think). Or do you just mean he doesn’t fight in the US? Because he fought on the Brook-Porter undercard.

And he’s had the title for a year and took some time off because his partner was having a baby so he has valid reasons.

Hopefully he gets Ryder out the way then gets a big fight.

His trainer talks a lot but the fact is, Smith just isn’t a big name!

Now there's a fight I would like to see from Callum.

GGG vs Callum Smith.

That'd be a nice primer for a Canelo set up.

The super 6 tournament made him #1.

He's the only one who beat multiple top ranked guys. The others, like Plant, havent even fought Fielding yet. Whom CS has already knocked out, in 1 round, that Canelo took 3 rounds to achieve.

So yeah, compared to the rest. He deserves the #1 spot

Clenelo vs Callum

The “New face of boxing daring to be great” should grow some balls and face the best prime boxers from 160-175. And that means Charlo, Andrade, Callum Smith, Benavidez, Ramirez, Bivol and Beterbiev. All of them outside Las Vegas. The Trilogy with GGG already lost all interest. It will be another fiasco like Kovalev-Clenelo.
