Comments Thread For: Canelo Beats Down Callum Smith For Wide Decision: Wins WBC, WBA Titles

Well Canelo is reaching his apex...Canelo fought GGG in his apex and it was a draw and a close decision.

Canelo stops GGG at this point or really beats him down

I don’t understand why people don’t see this. Cripple G last night was winded by the 4th round. Canelo ends his career in May.

I dont get the shit talk on Smith. He did what he could but we all saw him against Ryder. Canelo is probably at the absolute peak of his career and was gonna be hard to beat tonight. Im kind of surprised he didnt get stopped, he is a tough bastard.

Smith finished up on his legs... Smith didn't go down... Smith>Kovalev...

Stellar? He literally just spent the night beating on the arms of a guy that wouldn't throw back at him.

Nothing about these performances are stellar. Hes figure out that these big dudes are to slow to hit him, and aren't use to guys with fast head movement, so he just moves his head and beats on their arms while grunting loudly to make it seem like hes putting in effort.

This should have been billed as an exhibition. It was about as satisfying as Tyson Jones.

pretty much my thoughts. absolutely **** fight, pissed i stayed up for this. awful.

Smith is the epitome of an overrated Brit

Not as bad as the guy on the ground:

Canelo picked his challenges in different weight classes very well. Better than Floyd.

He picked Caleb Plant first. Then when he didn't want that smoke he went with Callum Smith.

Who the hell else did you want him to fight?

Worst fight ever? Callum didn't even try to win. He should have gone for broke and tried to back Canelo up. He just ran and backed up. Kinda of disappointed in Canelo for not getting the KO

He'd be much better at 160. 168 is too heavy.

He just wiped out the super mid champ, in an almost punch perfect performance. Think you could say it’s a perfect weight for him

Nice beatdown of another European stiff by Canelo...not much to see here.

[NYG]

Awful fight as usual
