You are welcome mate  .

You have a point there mate but still go with the fact that Callum Smith has not been knock-out in his career and for sure he will use his reach advantage to keep Canelo at bay. This is also Canelo's first in over a year so there might be ring rust that might contribute for him to not knocking out Smith.

Thanks for sharing the odds, the ko is very much attractive to stake to. If I'm not mistaken, Callum hasn't been knock out in his career, but he hasn't face an opposition like Alvarez and that chin of his might give up once Canelo hit is squarely. Canelo has also power and has a great timing, just like what he did to Kovalev, big legitimate light heavyweight, but once Canelo touches that chin, it's over.

If you are rooting for Canelo Alvarez to win this fight then below odds is not that bad. Callum Smith is massive so i think knock-out victory by Canelo is slim so i'm going for Canelo via Decision. But putting some amount for Smith as a safety net if upset happens is not bad at all but i'm not going to apply this kind of strategy as i don't believe that Smith could pull an upset.

"El Canelo Alvarez!" It is in the slang of any sport someone with a lot of talent who did not give what was expected ... Canelo is just a very popular boxer and a star in the world of entertainment who left a whole country and the addition of a community with a certain bitter-sweet taste.

Eye! This guy has a talent that places him among the best of his generation but it is perhaps that lack of superstars in Boxing in his category that leaves him  very far of the best of all time at least in his category, he only had to win a fight to be immortal and it was against Floyd Mayweather (2013).

At that time he had a record of 42-0-1 (30 KOs) simply impressive or perhaps his talent was greatly inflated in numbers that did not represent what he really was as a boxer at that time.

Seven years later at a peak age (30 years) for many boxers but already with the horizon of retirement in sight, he has this fight, that sums up the decline of his career, in another fight that will add another record that fattens an impressive record of victories.

As for the winner here there is no doubt, I think that the complex thing here will be to find which casino is paying the best odds, a cross bet here is very valid since a low bet on Smith's victory can bring you very good profits, so if not It turns out! his investment is covered with the fees that the victory of Canelo leaves him.
G.B.

That's real, Canelo is only, 5' 8'' in height while Callum Smith is 6'3'', this guy can be a heavyweight if he wants to.

is this for real?that the height advantage took this High? damn this is really a advantage over the another one .

Though we have seen some fight like this but always the highest one wins.

same question in mind why does only Weight is the basis of each matches and not the height in which more advantageous to the taller one?

3 days to Go but is seems that thefight not gaining any more attention from the Boxing community or this is the proof of Boxing industry is fading more and more now?
after the frustrating game result of Tyson and Jones fight?looks like people are now more confident that Boxing industry is being manipulated and controlled and the old views are coming to reality.
And also people now love more the UFC since the truthfulness is there and not like Boxing in which the Judges mostly failing the expectations of bettors and viewers.

There is a big height difference but not in weight and skill, Canelo is still the better fighter between them, Canelo will just adjust just like he did to all his opponent and beat Callum Smith, but if ever Smith win the match, of course, Callum is still good fighter it will be a candidate for the upset of the year.

Today they had a face off and the size difference is incredible. It is a bit shocking to see this. This can certainly play a factor in the outcome of this bout. Smith is also 30 years old so Canelo won't have the age advantage he had when he faced Kovalev or GGG. I'm excited for this weekend and I expect this to be a close fight.

That's the reason why we are favoring Alvarez here to win, his opponent is not really that popular or we call it big name in the sports of boxing. This doesn't look attractive to the fans as they already know who is likely going to win, the betting odds tells itself obviously.

Callum Smith also has a high KO rate but I don't recognize the names he beater in the list.

That's an Asian handicap, unfortunately, we can't tell if it's a good odds now since complete odds are still not release yet.

still moneyline betting is available in sports betting, I don't know if on fiat sportsbook we can see a more complete odds, if anyone would share that would be good. This fight would not good into distance per experts prediction.

Alvarez to KO Smith in 5 rounds or less, I guess you'll get a good odds for that.
This is not the fight what we are anticipating, but who knows, this one would become an exiting fight as the current situation may have affected our fighters.

Betcoin.ag has the best odds for this fight, at 1.19, I think if you are confident enough that would already be a good odds.
For me, I think I'll wait for the asian handicap, there's still plenty of time to bet since this will be next month, so hopefully that time all odds will be display.

Posting the comparison from other bookies from bestodds (https://www.bestodds.ai/odds/sport-boxing/matchups/callum-smith-vs-saul-alvarez)



It can easily go to 1.1 for Canelo a week before the fight event.
But if the odds will be the inspiration of Callum to train harder, we may see a toe-to-toe fight here.
And Canelo will have hard time inside the ring. Let's see.

I have always thought of Tyson as an exception rather than the rule, it is true that he was incredible and if it was not for a series of very difficult circumstances for him it is possible his reign at the top of the boxing world would have lasted way longer, however he had all the skills to deal with his short height and even make it an advantage by getting so close to their opponent that their height became a problem, but for the rest that lack his skill and raw talent height difference can be really important especially if the taller boxer is very good at throwing his jab.



While I see this fight being closer than what many imagine we also know that in the world of boxing fixing fights is a reality, to me if Callum wants to win he cannot hope to win by the judges since they are going to have a heavy bias towards Canelo and he will need to KO him.

A close much for Canelo and this is not like his last fight cause he is fighting someone who hasn't been lost and at the same time a major contender and a champion on their weight class. I think this fight will be good if happen at the coliseum where lots of people cheering for their favorite fighters.

Initial odds:



And as expected, Canelo @1.17 in the beginning, it could go to @1.1 though, not worth to bet on him.

Unless there is another option for us, maybe sportsbets will have that option as the fight get near though. So let's wait, like which round will Canelo stop Smith or the odds for a UD.

Let us not use pacman as a comparison, he is a legendary and on a different level, an 8th division world champion that no boxer had achieved yet, so this fight is just an ordinary fight and either boxer has a chance of winning, but of course most of us go with the popular boxer as we think it's the better fighter.

If it's for money then it's all business. But it's also a good decision. There certainly more people wanting to stay at home watch online than just going to buy a ticket to attend a gathering where thousands of people will come and all the air there already passed the nostrils of coronavirus-infected boxing lovers.  DAZN is the way to go.

Yes, and despite Canelo and his team suing DAZN because of the breach of contract, (resulting of Canelo parting ways with Oscar dela Hoya), it is better if he goes with DAZN at this point to help him promote and stream his fight against Callum Smith, after all it's all business.

Definitely, if everything goes back to normal next year, I'm seeing Canelo having 2 or even 3 fights in line for a PPV to make more money.
