    Coppinger reported Smith is the frontrunner and that he’s willing to take less than what he made for Groves. That’s all.

    I've seen Quigley's interview and he also thinks he's in line for Canelo..

    He reckons Canelo has 3 fighters in line and he has to choose one...

    I presume it's Smith, Quigley and Ryder, unless anyone can shed any more light on it?

    Will the choice be down to money, weight stipulations or bit of everything?

        Let's hope it is Smith and see if we have honest men in this place and admit they are/were wrong...

            If Callum Smith won't take a paycut during these pandemic times then screw him.

            I hope Ryder gets the call.

              Canelo is the #1 p4p fighter.

              Canelo offered Sergey Derevyanchenko more than $5 million.
              We are in a pandemic, with no audiences and no ticket sales. If Smith insists on pricing himself out then that's on him.

                  $5 million to fight Canelo Alvarez is pricing yourself out????

                  What would GBP have to offer before you found it offensive? A ball of string and bottle of nesquik?

                    Marcos Maidana made $3 million against Floyd. In the rematch.

                    Callum Smith has nowhere near the name recognition that Maidana did. And for the hundredth time...we are in the middle of a pandemic with no crowds and no ticket sales.

                      He’s also willing to take less money against Canelo Alvarez than he made to fight George Groves.

                      Canelo Alvarez fans said Callum Smith was scared of Canelo. They said he priced himself out. They said he screwed up his only chance to fight Canelo because he was greedy and knew he was going to lose.

                      I guess he didn’t lose his only shot at Canelo. I guess he didn’t price himself out. I guess he isn’t greedy. I guess he isn’t scared of Canelo.

                      Will the Canelo fans admit they were wrong?

                      Nope.

                      Just like:

                      When they said GGG was too much of a sissy to fight a champion in a weight class above him and never admitted they were wrong.

                      When they said Sergey Derevyanchenko would never get paid anything like what Canelo offered him and never admitted they were wrong.

                      When they said Sergey Derevyanchenko would never be considered as an opponent for Canelo Alvarez ever again and never admitted they were wrong.

                      When they said Sergey Kovalev wasn’t worth the purse he demanded and never admitted they were wrong when he got it.

                      Etc., etc., etc.
                      The Smith who faced Groves was a killer and a risk but this version is just after a pay check. I don’t think he has much in the tank and CAnelo knows that.
