Should Callum Smith retire?

[Eff Pandas]

If he got paid enough & his drive isn't in it anymore than he should retire.

I definitely think he can get more big fights. Some guys will wanna fight him more now to try to stop him so they will measure favorable vs Canelo.

That said I think the move is to go to 175 & try to get a belt.

retire for what. there's plenty of euro bums to feast on

What is it with people’s obsession with people retiring if they lose one fight?

What a way to ruin our sport

You should retire from the Internet.

Probably he should move to 175 if moving to 175 means he will have the energy to not just lie against the ropes. Seriously though, he still beats 90% of the division, should they all retire?

lots of ****** talk...

Can't see him beating the top guys at 175. He's flawed, but might find more success just due to his size. Hope to see a Ryder rematch soon.

Not retire, but I doubt he can get the belt at 175. Russians all beat him, Joe Smith also.

I concur! I wouldn't mind NOT seeing him again. Ever. I'm glad his bicep is torn so he can take even longer off. I know it sounds harsh but my man just didn't show up AT ALL.

People can say what they want about fighters deserving respect blah blah blah. Stop it. If you're an undefeated champion and a PROFESSIONAL, then why are you struggling to make weight and not showing up to fight???

There's no excuse for it. If he knew he was having trouble making weight, then why not start earlier? The fight was announced sometime last month I believe but Callum KNEW there was a chance he'd fight Canelo months before the announcement.

Again, if you're getting paid MILLIONS to train, make weight and put up an exceptional fight, then you should deliver. Period. I see if he was fighting some no-name guy, that wouldn't motivate a lot fighters out there to train better and harder. FFS, Callum....you're fighting Canelo and you mean to tell me that's ALL you brought to the table?

FOH! I'm not buying it or feeling bad for any of these guys. Again, Callum was just Rocky Fielding 2.0....he almost couldn't believe he was in the venue. Sad.

I think his conditioning was fine 'It was just his game plan, it was completely useless'.

If Alvarez has one weakness? It is that he has slow movement, and also his stamina is not really great. Smith just proceeded to let Alvarez slowly march towards him all night 'That was unacceptable, for a fighter with such a size advantage'.

I will tell you one thing? If Chris Eubank Junior fights Alvarez, he will leave it all in the ring.

You've got to just call it what it is. They're casuals.

If fighters should retire after one loss, then we'll never see any decent fights until guys hit mid 30s and want a cash out.

Callum has plenty left.

Callum must be proud of him self. Based on Canelo beating him clearly, many guys there believe Canelo beats everybody in the world and all past 160/168 guys in the world.
