    Funny how we hear all this crap from Callum Smith now when what we heard before the fight was that he's been in the gym and is ready to go whenever he gets the call. Canelo was gunning for Plant for December and when that didn't happen, he quickly turned his attention to Smith. Let's not make Smith some victim now. It's not like Canleo knew who he was going to fight until the Smith fight was agreed upon.
    Canelo "we have been training for Canelo Smith for 6 weeks"

    Smith "I have had a month to train for this fight, but I feel great"

      Smith was said to be in the gym for a while getting ready for a Canelo fight. Don't bring up this BS now. And again, Canelo was literally in negotiations to fight Plant before moving on to Smith.

      Smith should have declined the fight if he didn't feel he was ready. But I get it, now that he got embarrassed and out classed, it is time to come up with some excuses to save face.

        Smith was in the gym preparing for Canelo specifically or was he just in the gym staying in shape?

        Listen, Canelo is LEVELS above Callum Smith but don't pretend that the scales weren't tipped in Canelo's favour.

          I mean how was Canelo preparing for Smith when he was in the gym when his first option was Caleb Plant?

          Again, if Smith didn't think there was enough time to prepare, why did he take the fight?

            Canelo's OWN words were "we were training for Smith for 6 weeks"

            He knew it was always Smith.

            And why would Smith turn down the chance at greatness and life changing money?

              Canelo Alvarez split with GBP on November 6 and was in negotiations with PBC for a Plant fight shortly after. A week later he agrees to fight Smith.

              When exactly did he say we were training for Smith for 6 weeks? Anyways, clearly he WAS in the gym and training without an official agreement for any opponent.

              Smith was in the gym himself. Why did Hearn not tell him to get ready for the Canelo fight since there was a possibility of it happening?

              I mean Plant at one point didn't feel he would be at his best and turned down the Canelo fight. So it is possible to do so. But if you take it, don't come up with excuses afterwards. I don't see any foul play by Canelo here.

                We know his next move because he twice asked the WBC for witness protection when he didn't want to fight Charlos. Now, he's getting Avril Yindirim.

                  He had to agree to fight Yldirim next in order for the Callum Smith fight to happen. That's all there is to it.

                  Charlo has nothing to do with Canelo, other than that he turned down a lucrative offer to fight him once already.

                      Right. Berchelt-Valdez and Roman-Estrada are up next so who gives a *** about Canelo.
