  • Don’t forget Zurdo is fighting on Friday night too! Great weekend for us fight fans!

  • Pumped to see the Canelo fight. I really like this fight after a layoff. Callum was a guy most Canelo dis-likers said he was avoiding. I expect a tough fight from Smith.

    • That was before Smith getting beat-up in his last fight with John Ryder. Canelo team notices Smith has lost a step. We all know this is how Smith got the call.

  • If Golovkin struggles against Szeremeta, could be a clear indication of what we saw with Derevyanchenko, he is diminishing at a fast pace.
    If he still very capable, he should finish Szeremeta almost the same way he got rid of Grzegorz Proksa.

    • The only way lately the diminishing GGG still looks good is if he has a weak opponent in front of him that he is able to pressure and walk through.

  • I don’t see Smith beating Canelo, but it won’t be a walk on the park for him, because Smith got some remarkable attributes, among them his power and size.

  • Cinnamon will win on points. Unless Smith can score the knockout the score cards are already filled out even now.

    I’m convinced that you have to knock out this red headed slut to win.

  • I’m predicting smith handles canelo with ease. In fact, i don’t expect it to be that close from a fight fan’s perspective. smith is bigger, highly skilled, packs power and poise. canelo will have no advantages except for the judges. That said, I expect the judges decision to be very close, probably a win for canelo or a draw.

    I never even heard of this guy ggg is fighting. sounds like a tune-up for ggg.
