Golden Boy Promotions was making lowball offers

[ShaneMosleySr]

Six days after Canelo Alvarez got out of his Golden Boy Promotions contract, he was able to reach an agreement with Callum Smith for a fight.

When Callum Smith turned down the last Canelo fight offer (the one he got from GBP), Canelo fans claimed Smith was scared of the fight and turned down an amazing offer.

While saying this, they ignored the fact that Billy Joe Saunders was offered millions more for the same exact fight.

Canelo fans will never bring this up. They will start trashing GBP now that they’re the enemy. But let’s not let them pretend they didn’t defend these terrible Canelo/GBP offers for years.

Fck off Pac dyckrider. Callum Smith has the best resume among the 168 champions except Canelo. He also beat the number 1 guy in the division in George Groves a few years ago. Who did Plant amd Benavidez fought ? A bunch of Bums thats who

... you still have to wait until someone will KO Canelo cold...

the thread starter forgot to mention his usual ''Canelo ducked GGG a third time...'' which is really and always the subtext for his Canelo threads! and Callum Smith will be a good fight. That guy big ass fook!

groves was number 1 by default meaning the other good fighters left the division and or lost. groves didnt beat the top guys to become the top guy ala lopez vs loma. groves in his prime lost to guys like froch and badou jack so yeah he wasnt some great #1 type fighter. just a thinning out of hte division which propelled him to that ranking for a very very short period of time, and yes plant and benavidez dont have good resumes but callum smith just lost to john ryder so that should be factored in as well. the only really great fight at the moment would be beterbiev at 175 but i understand canelo is playing the waiting game like he did with ggg. anyone who has watched callum smith fight can see he is **** average but **** average in a weak division and with a powerful promoter/network behind you can make you seem above average.

Canelo will deliver all the fights we want he always does!

Canelo and Smith haven’t made an agreement yet, it’s fake news.

They are still in negotiations, and I’m very doubtful they fight this year.

Yeah despite arguably losing to Ryder, Smith is still the #1 guy at 168 IMO.

Plant and Benavidez aren’t far behind though, all have similar resumes.

you want this fight? a guy that just lost to john ryder? pretty sure people want him to fight beterbiev since beterbiev is number 1 in the division canelo just fought in and didnt just lose to a random tune up opponent
