Absolute beat down. Canelo just walked through everything knowing it couldn't hurt him and ripped off some really vicious shots. If you kept watching the broadcast after the interviews, you could see on the way back to the dressing room that Smith has a horribly swollen left arm from catching heavy right hands all night.

Not much was expected from Smith but getting out jabbed, by double figures, by a guy 7 inches shorter than you is crazy.

Detached bicep was mentioned on DAZN

Think it was well reported at one time that Canelo failed a drugs test and blamed it on contaminated meat (horse? Or did I dream that one up!?)

Yeah it was. I mean it seems to have been swept under the carpet tho. Bellew did allude to it in a tweet after the fight

Perhaps it because he's a major cash cow (or horse or whatever....)

He served a drugs ban ffs! The second GGG fight was delayed because of it.

You're missing my point here. Most people who come back from bans or failed tests always have it referred to. Not so with Canelo. FWIW I think he is a brilliant boxer and deserves the P4P accolades

He's obviously  a drug cheat then....maybe they all are...like the Armstrong years....if you believe Armstrong....

Anyone know what Fury's problem with Sports personality of the year ?

When he got nominated in 2015 there was a fairly decent attempt at cancelling him because of misogyny and homophobic comments he made in an interview.

He calls himself the People's Champion so he didn't want the hassle of that shit coming up again and ruining his image so just wanted to stay out of it as far as I can see. He's a talented boxer and a charismatic guy but he is also a member of the traveller community where these kinds of views are fairly standard I'd say so it's not exactly surprising.

I think he has a bit more experience now though and I doubt he'll be making those kinds of comments in public again.

I would say its a case of who isn't doping, at the very top level truth be told.

There is that ridiculous stat about the top 50 100metre recorded times in history. Every single one was set by someone who later failed a test, except Bolt. And people think he was clean?

Campbell or Garcia?
