Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez vs. Callum Smith - Vacant WBC Title Now at Stake

[famicommander]

Fine, whatever.

Current 168 pound title situtation

WBA (Super): Smith
WBA (Regular): Canelo
WBA (Interim): David Morell (who?)
WBC: Vacant
IBF: Plant
WBO: Saunders
IBO: Vacant (lol)
Ring: Smith
Lineal: Vacant

Anything that reduces the number of "champions" is a good thing in my opinion. The winner of this will be the WBC, WBA (Super), and Ring champion and the (Regular) title becomes vacant. That's an improvement even if it's blatant favoritism from the WBC towards Canelo.

Ideally we'd get Plant vs Benavidez and then the minner vs the Canelo/Smith winner.

Mauricio bending over again LOL

also, "monstrous" fight is a bit much, but very good one.

Grimey but at the same time, not mad at it. If it wasn’t Canelo in this fight I’d still agree with the WBC wanting to put their title in the mix with the ring champ defending. At the end of the day, this is Benavidez’s fault to begin with.

Not gonna hate on it. Makes the most sense. The number one guy in the division is getting the crack at it...as it should be tbh

WBC lost all credibility long ago the son here just makes matters worse .....it's him that needs a belt!

[Griever0730]

Whoever wins this title is most likely gonna avoid Benavidez unless he gets the mandatory spot again(which most likely be the case). Hopefully Benavidez doesn't shoot himself in the foot again and get his spot back. He is a serious danger to anyone in and around his division.

Smith is also WBC "diamond" belt holder and therefore 2nd mando(kebab boy #1).
And Canelo is Canelo.

The WBC Middleweight Champ. The WBC isn't breaking any rules. Ppl want to be mad ne mad a Benavidez for being fat and unprofessional.

I think like 85% of this forum called that this was happening. Lmfao I wonder what network picks up Canelo vs Yildirim.

No one is gonna pay Canelo over $20 million to fight Yildirim. Don't be ******.

I bet you acounts and throw in $1000 to your account and $50 this fight doesn't happen.

That seems to be the crash course.

Not surprised at all by this. Canelo is the WBC Franchise champ and Smith holds the WBC Diamond belt for whatever thats worth. Shhaaat this is a super unification. The only belts left at 168 will be Plant's IBF and Saunders' WBO. Undisputed champ coming in 2021??

Lmfao The wbc would do anything for canelo. Sulaiman is pathetic.
