    Smith won but looked like crap. At least Canelo is gonna want to jump on him now.. maybe..

    Im a fan of smith but while watching him fight, i kept thinking what canelo would do to him if he fought this way.

    He is still a work in progress and nobody can look great in every fight.

      The body size and upper body movement are about all the similarities they have. Canelo is still about an in shorter and has an inch and a half shorter reach. I didn't catch the final punch stats from Smith/ Ryder but I can't see Canelo adapting that kind of style. Canelo doesn't lean on guys when they're on the ropes and throw multiple punch combinations, which Smith was unable to deal with. Smith doesn't utilize his length and well as he should and Canelo will definitely get inside and do his work, but it will be different than what Ryder did. Still, I would favor Canelo, yet Alvarez might be textbook enough for Smith to have an "easier" time dealing with than Ryder.

        Yeah for whatever reason Canelo is punching pretty strong right now...I think he probably hits a bit harder than Ryder right now, and is probably better/quicker with the counters...but yeah styles make fights so who knows how it would go.

        Problem is Smith looked bad tonight imo so it kind of takes the shine off of getting a win vs him now.

          Did you really give him 7 rounds or are you saying he got the official win..just curious what rounds you had for him if so

            - -Gotta win more than a couple champ rds...Duh!!!

              I was never big on callum smith or any of the smith brothers. They are all very limited. Callum smith is a british-level boxer who happened to beat groves when groves is worn out, and his previous wins were against lesser competitions where he was noticeably bigger and taller than them. I have always believed that guys like david benavidez, canelo and caleb plant would beat him and hurt him bad.

                I'm dumb, I meant the announcers not judges. And he did win more than a couple rounds
