The problem with Gomez is he's a horrible liar. Mayweather? Canelo can't consider Mayweather. Maywether considers Canelo. Porter? He has a fight lined up with Thurman and if he wins he's fighting Garcia and if he loses Canelo would be fighting a Welterweight at 155 (?) coming off a loss. Jacobs. Jacobs can't make 155 and wouldn't even try. Jacobs made the same amount of money fighting Quillin as Khan made fighting Canelo. The only way Jacobs could make 155 is if his cancer came back. GGG. You dropped the belt to avoid fighting him and haven't talked to his people since. I understand the court case is going on but Oscar and Canelo are the defendants. Gomez or Hopkins could at least call Loeffler if they were truly interested in the fight. BJS. A loss to BJS would be worse than a loss to Golovkin. And BJS can't make 155. Cotto. No, just no. So that leaves us with Liam Smith. I would rather see the Lara rematch. They never mention Lara and that was a close fight. Canelo is the money man in boxing but he's vulnerable. We can name at least 5 fighters from 154-160 that can beat him. So he'll always have to pull some type of gimmick to have advantages.Last edited by Motorcity Cobra; 06-11-2016, 10:03 AM.

Canelo is probably the one fighter Smith will have problems with up close as Canelo is a maestro in the pocket. That's not to say his Jab and long right hand couldn't trouble Canelo.
I think he beats the Charlo brothers and the Lara fight would be even. Think he has the potential to unify and move up if he keeps improving ala Crolla.

My respect for him has waned to an extent that I wouldn't give him any of my money. Calling someone out then dropping titles and avoiding a fight isn't something I'd reward. I'm a fan of Canelo but if this is the future of the sport then we're deeper in the **** than I cared to acknowledge.

There's quite a few fighters I'd pick to comprehensively beat Smith: Charlo bros, Lara, Andrade, Canelo etc. Probably Cotto and trout too.

Is your standard for GGG, Wade?
I simply stated a fact and your little twisted ****minion brain turned it into something it wasn't.
Why don't you change your fu(king maxipad you're clearly named after and get a grip?
Everyone wants Canelo to fight GGG. It's not some special opinion. Get his di(k out of your ass, it's forcing you to spew ***** from your mouth.
