Makabu Beats Mchunu By Controversial Split Decision. But Will Canelo Still Fight Him?
Reports from watchers is that Makabu should not have had his hand raised. Regardless, he did.
The question is, will Canelo's camp want to book a fight with Don King in the mix? Is it possible that Makabu's performance turns Canelo off and makes him want to go another route?
We analyze the other possibilities, from 168 through cruiserweight, and why we think that Joe Smith Jr. (WBO @ 175) makes the most sense (for those that don't recognize the name, Smith is the one who in 2016 literally knocked Bernard Hopkins out of the ring and into retirement, causing B-Hop to claim he "Pushed me out the F'n ring!" (Yeah, with his fist).
Many will say "Smith can't get ready that fast!" If Makabu was next, it'd be the same thing. What's the difference?
