As per Canelo:

Quote
"He is a fighter who comes forward looking for a fight, who does not give you a chance to breathe, to get your rhythm going. He is a fighter who has many qualities, a lot of power too, but we are ready for this and for more. I think at these levels we have to fit in with everything with the experience we have and it will be a great fight. I'm ready for this and these kinds of challenges are the ones I like in boxing to keep going and make history," said Canelo.

So he knows whats coming, so he already have plans to offset Smith's reach and height advantage. And we are glad that he is willing to fight anyone whether in his division or go up again like the Kovalev fight. So I'm not seeing Callum winning, we haven't seen the best version of Canelo yet.

I'm also loving the fact that Callum Smith is the underdog because I will give him the a good chance to upset Alvarez. Don't underestimate Smith here, he is too big for Canelo and has the punching power to crack that granite chin. Sooner it later it will be broken and I think Callum Smith will be the one. If there is already opening on sportbet.io, I will have Callum by KO/TKO or ML.

Good choice but the seeing the last fight of Callum which was not impressive, i will bet for Canelo. Smith bing too big for Canelo, can't be KO'ed and that is why i will go for Canelo via unanimous decision if the odds is attractive enough. I have now the impression that team Canelo have chosen Smith for his December return because of the latter's not impressive performance on his last outing which can be considered as cherry picking lol.

I would love to see the trilogy as well with GGG I think this is the only worthy fight for Canelo as this point.

You are not the only one a trilogy for these two warriors will bring a lot of money to the fight.

Everyone wants to see it.

I feel GGG's time has passed. He was an old man now. It's been over 2 years since Canelo fought him. It is time for everyone to move on and give someone new an opportunity. You can argue GGG deserved to win those fights but we will never see those circumstances again. GGG is more aged now and he's had a few injuries which have sidelined him. Maybe if he beats someone like Charlo it will be an interesting fight again.

New twist new spice for the boxing fans, who knows how this fight will went thru,
For most Canelo have a great advantage but for those gamblers who loves taking
the risk it's serves as good opportunities to bet in and try to find luck since Smith
also have the titles on his belt something to consider though experienced wise
Canelo have a lots of it and their age are not far from each others.

It is a shame to me that I havent heard anything about Callum Smith. By looking on wiki, he seems to be an outstanding boxer, but not the level of Canelo imho. It wont be a tough fight for Canelo. I think he will win in 5+ round with a tko.

I tried checking their records but it seem that Canelo has been listed as Saul Alvarez so I am a little curious why there is a little change in their names.

They both hold a world middle title and their previous match like last 7 games of both of them are win and there is no losses so I guess  this will be a good fight. But Alvarez has advantage in terms of experience as he has 56 fights while Smith has only 27 fights. But the advantage of Smith is that he is undefeated, I will be looking forward if he can use it against to Alvarez in their upcoming fight.

I know Canelo is a fan favorite, and probably considered a legend by most, however I feel a lot of fans are ignoring the fact that Callum Smith is an accomplished fighter, and has every chance of walking away with the result. As its been mentioned all around the world, we could see something like the Loma result, because people simply expected him to win regardless of the opponent. Do I think Loma will win if/when they fight again? I'd probably have him as my favourite yeah. However, I'm definitely not as confident for Canelo, than I am for Loma which tells me something. If I were to make any predictions it would be that this fight goes the distance, and it'll be narrowly decided on points, but I have to hand it to the underdog Smith can definitely hold his own against Canelo.

Callum Smith is good with his left hook and straight but can can he connect that big left hook and straight punch, knowing that Canelo is very intimitating with his jab and right cross, I'll go for Canelo he has fought a lot of great fighters and conquered all of them Callum will just become another feather in his cap, I still love to see trilogy with GGG, many of us do.
Canelo's jab won't be effective I would say because he is facing a taller and lengthier guy. So if ever he jabs he will be counter all day with left hook from Smith. It's just the matter of Callum having a good timing to caught Canelo coming in with his jab. Of course, Canelo's experience will still prevail although he is at a disadvantage because Canelo not only has the tools but better ring IQ.
Even if his opponent has some edge in some aspect of the game but since his IQ is high, I think Canelo would still find a way to win, he is a warrior and he is not afraid to fight toe to toe with any opponent and I respect him for fighter GGG despite of the controversial result.

There is a sort of prediction that Callum might upset Canelo this fight,

https://www.oddschecker.com/us/insight/boxing/boxing/20201118-canelo-vs-smith-odds-bettors-believe-callum-smith-can-upset-canelo-alvarez

Might this will be successful revenge or just a failure. Doubted that Smith can do this, we know Canelo, a heavy puncher, it close to realize that this might just a shit talk from gamblers to create some hypes.

I will still pick Canelo, no changes.


This is Canelo's weight class so I doubt that there will like Lopez-Loma upset here.

I've check one sports book, the odds are not yet there, but I will echo the sentiments that Canelo will be the favorite. No offense to Callum, he is good but not in the level of Canelo. Next for Canelo should be Billy Joe Saunders and then Caleb Plant to unify and clean up the division, oh wait, GGG is still in the background.  Smiley
Canelo has the upper hand wherein he is stronger and more favorite player by a lot of crowds, my chicken will be Canelo because of his counter punching and there was a popular title where he considered as the king of counter punching. Canelo moves is so smooth and I do not think that Smith can beat Canelo even though that past performance of Callum smith is so good wherein he knockout a lot of his opponents. Watch the highlights of Canelo Alvarez and you can see the he has the upper hand wherein there is a high chance that he can win the fight. I'm excited to see the fight and I will probably watch it and avail pay per view because I want to make a bet and I love to see the match live for me to become more intense watching it.

Still Canelo is the Favorite in this fight proving that this division is His territory and He is still dominating this not until he Goes in another division.

comparing their performances in the past games giving more advantage to win.

But of course nothing is certain in sports specially gambling because there is a Heavy punch that at any time can Land in timing and make boxer down.

No doubt, Caleb is the underdog here with only 20 fights, but he is taller and has longer reach. In other words, Caleb is bigger, and perhaps this could also potentially lead to an upset match, just like Lomachenko. The good thing is, middleweight is the natural weight class for Canelo.

If he can show different moves like Crawford, he might have a chance to win this fight because even though his opponent has some advantage due to the massive experience he gains from his last fights, new strategy and timing will get him a big score if used well in the ring. Sometimes it works well like what we have seen in the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Oscar Dela Hoya where the fans thought it would be a one-sided match but Pacquiao came up with a strong strategy and manage to win the fight with his strategy.

Canelo is a good boxer and even has been offered huge money in the contract signing of his career in becoming a pro boxer. Not only that, Canelo already prove its worth in every game he played. He is explosive and good in offense and defense. But I do like more on how offensive he is like dominating always in the ring. One of the best fight I had been watching and having a draw result was when he match with tripple G. I thought he gonna face Tripple G head on but he changed a  little bit in his fighting style.

I think it will be a close fight also. People might think it's easy because Smith struggled against John Ryder in his last fight but it happens sometimes when you fight a lower level opponent it is hard to be motivated and you have a bad night. There's a reason why David Benavidez's promoter had avoided putting him against Smith for as long as possible even though he is owed an opportunity to fight for the WBC title after winning the World Boxing Super Series.

To be honest. i have not followed the career of Smith yet and me living in the East side of the globe has just heard for the first time his name when he is paired with Canelo. You are right, fighting a lower tier boxer won't motivate you to train harder, that's the problem most boxers had. A fight with Canelo could be Smith's career paycheck i believe so better train hard for this one.

BTW, OP already updated.

You should watch his high lights in Youtube and I'm sure you will find Smith a decent challenge for Canelo as he is tall as has the reach advantage. Yes, it will be his biggest paycheck, as Canelo is the new cash cow, with or without Golden Boy. And as I have mentioned, big big challenge for Canelo and good that he is fighting the best in his division but I think Canelo will get the nod here from the judges.
