Comments Thread For: Callum Smith: I'd Still Take Canelo Fight In A Heartbeat; I'm Not Ducking It

[tokon]

Well you sure let a lot of heartbeats happen when you had the chance to fight him. You ****ed up.

AK got you Smith!
If you would really "fight him in a heartbeat", and actually have any confidence in winning, you'd have accepted that offer and went forward with the fight.
You were probably badly advised by either Gallagher or Hearn (or both) but, whatever, you didn't take the chance when it was there.
Like you say you're gonna do, you now need to get on with your own career and see if that golden goose ever fly's your way again.

"Alvarez is expected to fight September 12 in Las Vegas. Neither Smith nor Saunders, the WBO super middleweight champ, are under consideration in part because Golden Boy and DAZN would prefer to pay Alvarez’s next opponent less than the reported $8 million package Saunders was to receive for the May 2 bout."

DAZN wants to pay less than 8mil, Eddie, how about hooking up Andrade with a big fight?

[MxicoFistology]

Of course you would

[JonDP]

If your phone rings again don’t even think about holding up for more money Callum. I’m sorry to say but you’re stock was badly hurt in your last fight. Plus everybody is getting a pay cut These days.

When you have to explain yourself as to why the fight with the biggest star in the sport wasn’t made... it can only be that you ducked it... simpletons

Would Canelo get through Plant, Smith, Benavidez undefeated?

[CaptainWalrus]

Canelo vs Beterbiev with no crowd LHW. You would hear all the shots too. #crazy#hugerisk#danger#

As Ring magazine champion & lineal #1 @ 168Lb Smith should actually be calling the shots. I'd like to see him fight Benivedez in the next 6 months.

[Encoupejas]

I also did not expect that in that fight Canelo Alvarez would surprise all his fans

[RomanReigns]

Is this fight going to happen next month??
