    I think 168 is the way to go. He could rack up a lot of belts pretty quick there.

    If he fights Smith next, he could win the Ring title, the WBA Super, and the WBC Diamond. The WBC Diamond could set him up for a unification with WBC champ Benavidez, or he could easily go to fellow DAZN fighter Saunders for a WBO unification.

    And Plant seems like a soft target for the IBF if he wants, too.

      Alvarez in Montreal is Huge I’d choose that fight but can’t go wrong with a Jack rematch.

        Plant is probably the worst fight for Canelo stylistically. He struggles against slick guys.

        Canelo also said when he moved up to 168 that he would never fight any Mexican fighters again, so that's a Benavidez duck if I'd ever heard one.

        Smith is an opponent though, he just lost in the eyes of 90% of boxing fans.

          Yeah, Ryder got robbed against Smith so Smith seems vulnerable. And it would be a third division with a Ring title for Canelo if he wins it.

          BJS is always in the back pocket. That seems like a lay-up for Canelo.

            Especially with how bad Billy looked in his last fight too

              Just Fought Browne and Jack back to back, Head back to Canada take a soft touch showcase and wait for the biggest offer

              I could see Eddie Hearn offering him big money to fight Joshua Buatsi which would be a HUGE Step Up for Buatsi but dangerous

                I don't think they'll take that risk after what happened with Marcus Browne. I'd like to see that though. Would be the 2nd Canadian opponent in a row for Buatsi too haha.

                  Pascal should take a cupcake fight in Canada then look got the biggest payday on the way out. I wouldn't have thought Canelo but I guess that's possible more likely Browne or Alvarez in Canada

                      After watching Buatsi/Ford there is NO WAY Buatsi is ready for Pascal.
