Comments Thread For: Canelo Could Face Yildirim Sometime In February If He Beats Callum Smith

I will give him a pass if the turn around is so soon.

I agree.

At first I was like I prefer a headline that Canelo would want to unify in May which would mean the IBF or WBO... but then I thought, if he wants to stay active in February then why not?!

I think Canelo is approaching it responsibly in that 2020 was too much time laid off, and the get back in Feb adds momentum for him to be sharp. I think Canelo wants to forget 2020 all together because he was in the gym all year waiting for nothing! Lol

I agree. I wish these other boxers were held to the same standard as Canelo. He’s the only one fighting the top level guys. These other boxers won’t even fight each other because they are scared to lose and miss out on a Canelo payday. Canelo seems to be the only one chasing greatness.

No he isn’t. He refuses to fight Charlo

What top guys has charlo fought? Him and Andrade are waiting on Canelo payday.

Nooooo, I’m up for Calum now.

Schoolboy Chacon brings back memories. Ruben Olivares, thinman, Boza Edwards the L.A. forum Livingstone. Don't forget Little Red. Oh yeah, don't forget the Hoover street gym

I think Spence is doing his part in chasing greatness too he has fought a list of who's who at 147

Just further indication that Callum Smith a euro bum.

I don't mind Canelo taking an easy fight in between a couple of hard ones. I wouldn't pay for it, nor would I watch it....but most great fighters did the same.

To be fair, Canelo is also in a position where everybody wants to fight him as well. With that being said, I do believe that he wants to use that position to make the best fights instead of downplaying his top competition (or pretending they don't exist) like Terrence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. are doing with each other.

Just a question or 2 but why is it Canelo had no desire for the WBC belt until it became vacant and do you think he will ever fight Benavidez?

I get Canelo is top dog in the sport and he does fight big names BUT he doesnt exactly leave much room for error. IMO he is following a Mayweather blueprint to strike it rich and the legacy is debatable later on apparently.

Floyd fought the best names possible but critics would say he fought them when he had the upper hand not at their best. The same could be said about Canelo couldn't it?

Any champ who fights frequently is allowed a gimme defense once in a while. It’s the ones that don’t fight frequently where it’s BS

I wonder what network will pick this up and for how much?
