Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez vs. Liam Smith Finalized at 154, 9/17 on PPV

So as a mw he avoided the best mw and now going back to jmw, he's gonna fight the weakest champion of the bunch. True Mexican warrior.

[Mitchell Kane]

One pound down or 5 pounds up. Which is more logical?

How about not fighting above 154 if he could make 154.

But that's right, he wanted the weight advantage.

This ret ard!
What's more logic to you?
Draining yourself to lose that 1 pound
Or
Not having to lose as much weight and comfortably making 160?

Dude blows up to past LHW on fight night that should tell you that it's more logical for Can'tNelo to gain 5

Only Canelo fan boys will defend this crappy fight

Not a fan but I'm not upset or bothered by the match up what I find laughable is
1. It's on PPV
2. Can'tNelo would rather drain himself in an attempt to make 154 just to avoid fighting GGG

How much you want to bet GB is praying that Can'tNelo makes 154 so they can tell GGG you want th fight come down to 154??
Mark my words.
Lil g has dem boys shook!

Aaaaand herein lies your problem. Why are we, as FANS of boxing, to be thinking like a PROMOTER?

As a fan, I'd much rather see Canelo/Andrade than Canelo/Smith. And I'd ratehr have Canelo/GGG then Canelo/Andrade.

You'd honestly rather watch Canelo/Smith?

It's not that we 'don't get' why Canelo chose Smith. We get it, doesn't mean we have to like or approve of it.

Fine tough guy -- don't think like a promoter then rather think of it as you being in Alvarez position, what would you do? fight this guy that has no fanbase no title for the 'Fans' -- these people are not going to feed your family or pay your bills WAKE UP! I live in reality : At one point Alvarez was a contender and fought Austin Trout to earn his shot at the : Laras, Mayweathers, Cotto's etc - you seem to not understand that in life we are to progress -- Andrade is a step backwards at this point there's LEVELS to this.

[TheBoxingXpert]

Canelo is such a coward.

[techliam]

Good to see Canelo going back to 154

Now Golovkin-Jacobs should set up a new lineage for those who care about it

Get it signed!

You could see from the recent pictures he posted on Instagram that he was on a strict diet, they probably have a couple new specialists who trim Canelo down and he is on some special diet so he can drain himself down to 154 for a couple hours.

Will probably gain 20-25 lb overnight and be the much bigger guy like he always is.

Smith is the worst titleholder he could have fought.

Why do they even talk about fighting GGG in 2017? They just use GGG's name to sell some PPVs for this crappy fight.

If Canelo can trim down to 154 and feels good they are not moving up to 160 next year.

Canelo only fights GGG if he has problems making 154 or if he is really having trouble against Liam Smith.
