Comments Thread For: Saunders: Four, Five Weeks Not Enough Time For Smith To Prepare To Beat Canelo

[Thuglife Nelo]

If you were a prize fighter and passed on the opportunity because you were not quite ready, you would be a fool. Same for hydration clauses and nagging injuries. It’s unfortunate but that’s the way of the world.

If you truly know boxing, then hydration clauses are wagers if you can compete at the weight, and you don’t have to agree to taking the fight. If you need more than 10lbs the morning of (the clause), then you’re draining. Most boxers on average rehydrate 10lbs from the scale to fight night for all classes except for HW.

Canelo already paid his dues his career with cutting weight at an early age. Basically his 154-155 days. Now he doesn’t have to worry as much at 168-175 because he’s already soft at the scale. A fighter shouldn’t care about Smith’s problem... he’s holding the Ring Belt and WBA Super. He wants those. Smith is in the way.

The truth is we all know Smith should be at 175. Tough luck. He made a choice and LUCKILY he’s making a final attempt while making a payday.

Too many fans complaining about nothing. Lol

Callum Smith just said in the zoom press conference with Eddie Hearn that he had already been preparing for a December fight and that he's been in the gym. That's what champs do.

Unlike all the excuse making höes on this site (and Caleb Plant) crying that the fight should've been announced in fall 2018 to be prepared.

World class champs are always ready.

You're saying Steve Kim is a liar?

I'm saying Steve Kim is notorious for being a poor source. The amount he gets wrong is laughable.

Hearn has already said that it wasn't that much. He didn't give an exact price, but he did say it was a lot less than 12 Mill.

Oscar is also notorious for not giving the amount offered so he could manipulate the public.

They offered Jacobs only 2 Mill with the rest coming from DAZN. Eddie also paid the price for Jacobs rehydrating to his full weight after Canelo put weight stipulations in the contract like the poosey he is.

He gets fights whenever he wants? Have you missed this entire year where he constantly struggled to get fights made with different opponents, Smith included?

If Canelo wants to make it look to the public that he's willing to fight these guys, he'll lowball them so they turn it down. He's testing how much they want it to set them up in the near future knowing they'll take it when it's offered. Canelo prepares properly for months for that opponent, then offers it late so they can't be at full preparation.

He does it all the time. Wake the f3ck up. Unless you're a Canelo fanboy who is either Mexican or Mexican decent, then you'll never see him for what he is no matter how many cowardly crimes he commits. You're blind to him due to being a fanatic. Which is sad.

What happened? Did my comments got your vulva swollen?

No, they just allowed me to see you're still an idiot. I found that many times when discussing the AJ/Wilder situation with you and your constant delusion. So this reply matches up with all your other comments in the past... Irrelevant.

Either argue the point if you have one, or don't post anything.

[Sid-Knee]

Does that all the time? Your argument is just a lie. Other than Kovalev, who else did he fight on short notice? And it makes no difference, they either have the qualities to beat him or they don’t, 2 or 3 months of training are not going to change that. Get your head out of your Canelo-hating fat ass.

I mean he gains constant advantages that show he's a coward. What kind of fighter intentionally weakens fighters by not allowing them to rehydrate properly? Short notice fights. Waiting until they have a bad performance. Or straight waiting for them to age.

Enjoy the fraud and his laughable cowardly ways. I suppose it's all you got so you don't have any integrity or self-respect.

LOL, you are a sensitive little sissy. Post any of my Wilder/AJ thoughts to prove what you are saying.

It's a forum you child. When making comments, you're supposed to argue their benefits if there is any. Making childish and deflecting comments are for idiots.

You're claiming you didn't spend years making delusional comments regards to an AJ/Wilder fight? You're claiming you don't remember the many times we went at it?

GTFOH!!!!

Isn’t this standard from Canelo’s team? Cherry pick a champion and only give them a 4 weeks heads up, whereas Canelo knew months ago who he was going to fight.

[Squ□redCircle34]

Why is people mad at Canelo?

These fighters aren’t disciplined isn’t Canelo’s fault and PBC said it wasn’t enough time to promote Canelo-Plant!

I’m fine with the Smith fight, he was considered the number 1 super middleweight in the world until the John Ryder fiasco but it could’ve been he had an off night!

Canelo is still a 3 division champ to me and if he beats Smith then he will be a real 4 division champ, no excuses!

People bîtçh that Canelo doesn’t fight people young an when he does they’ll say another excuse to take away credit!

For a guy who hasn’t fought in quite a while, I’m glad Canelo didn’t fight Yildrim which again is understandable since he’s been out for a while!
