It looks like Callum Smith is now also in the running to be Canelo's next opponent. He is a more accomplished fighter than Plant but he his style should be more favorable to Canelo. Having that money for the UK broadcasting rights will probably tip the balance in favor of Smith being the next opponent.
Canelo has to focus on this fight first, and I believe he will do his usual hard training to win convincingly on whoever his opponent is. He is giving chance to a non popular fighter but with great record and he always fight big names in boxing, so much respect for Canelo here as he has already proven himself that he is a legit warrior. Mayweather even rank him in the top 3 best boxers in the world on the video I saw, so that's a great recognition coming from the cash king who knows how the business runs very well.

He should be more focus he has a long lay off and this is his first fight after he become a free agent he needs a dramatic win probably a knock out, since he is on his own now and he is now the one managing his contract, he should stay in the super middle weight division, because this is the weight where he is more comfortable,now that he is a free agent there's a possibility of a third GGG fight since GGG is now a champion again.

I don't know if this fight will push through as there are another name floating around, Callum Smith. https://www.badlefthook.com/2020/11/11/21561767/canelo-alvarez-next-fight-set-callum-smith-texas-december-2020-dazn-boxing-newsCanelo Alvarez to face Callum Smith in December, DAZN could still carry fight
The Canelo Alvarez sweepstakes may be quickly over, and a fight that has been a lot of fans’ desired bout for the Mexican superstar may be happening.
ESPN’s Salvador Rodriguez reports that Alvarez will be facing Callum Smith in December in Texas. There had been earlier speculation that Caleb Plant could get the call, and Billy Joe Saunders’ name was brought up again, too, but it looks as though it will be Smith.
The date will be either Dec. 18, 19, or 20 — that’s Friday through Sunday — and the location will be in Texas, either AT&T Stadium in Arlington or the Alamodome in San Antonio. Still, doesn't change the odds, it will still favour Alvarez no matter who he faces right now. We will just wait for the official announcement though.

Thanks for this information mate, will just update the OP if there is already an official announcement of a Canelo vs Smith fight. They way i look at it, seems that Smith is likely to be the opponent of Canelo this December but still the same, Canelo have the advantage of this fight.

I think it will be an upgrade if Callum Smith will be the opponent of Canelo instead of Caleb Plant. Smith has a good left hook and I would say has more power than Caleb so it will be a good match for Canelo and is very tall as well. So let's see, but I do agree, Canelo will take over in the middle rounds and maybe go for the knock out.

He is certainly going for a KO as his stats are telling. 36KO out of 53 fight, that's a huge KO percentage, so it's likely to happen. The odds here that would interest the bettors are the KO odds, as if we only choose who is the winner of the fight, then definitely we won't get a good betting odds for Canelo.

I agree, it's a better version of Caleb Plant as Callum Smith has that nasty body shots are well and has knockouts his opponents with that one single blow to the body or accumulation that made the quit against him. So it will be a good and competitive fight for Canelo, but he has the experience, face the best while Callum has fight B-level fighters. But we can't blame him as the division is not that stack up with good fighters.

It Callum Smith will the the likely opponent then good for him. As I champion, he needs to make some money now and the Canelo sweepstakes will bring him that, Lol. It used to be the Pacquiao sweepstakes, but now Canelo is the biggest attraction. So even if he losses this fight (most likely), it will still be a win-win situation for Callum and his team.

He has to improve the defense too because so far if he only focuses on the early matches then the opponents in the final matches will take advantage of the golden opportunity to knock down Canelo, so in my opinion don't give even that little to the opponent because this is a golden opportunity for Canelo in his career.
In my opinion Canelo needs to improve the way he begins fights because for what I have seen he starts very slowly and for the most part he loses the first rounds and it is not until the middle of the fight that you begin to see that he gets on rhythm, and while he has been able to get away with it because he's a very heavy puncher that slowly but surely keeps draining the stamina out of their opponents if the fight gets to the final stages most likely he's going to be down on the judge cards and that puts additional pressure on him to perform. However there is no doubt in my mind that he is one of the top fighters of the world, he just needs to polish his style a little bit more and he could become one of the greats.

Right and that's why it is a better match-up for Canelo, a taller fighter, with a good power in his left and also a body puncher. So this is going to be a close fight, probably will go like the GGG or Kovalev fight, go to distance and we can only say that Smith has a good chin as well because it never has been broken. So difficult fight for Canelo and I think he will go on the defensive in the first couple of rounds, try to measure the distance and then step up the heat in the latter rounds, so KO/TKO round 10th-12th or UD.

I think it will be a close fight also. People might think it's easy because Smith struggled against John Ryder in his last fight but it happens sometimes when you fight a lower level opponent it is hard to be motivated and you have a bad night. There's a reason why David Benavidez's promoter had avoided putting him against Smith for as long as possible even though he is owed an opportunity to fight for the WBC title after winning the World Boxing Super Series.

Smith got cut in the eye, that's why he struggled against the underdog Ryder but still he won a close fight in the judges scorecard. I think it was the first time that Smith got cut or at least have to fight with a disadvantage to survived. But with Canelo we do hope that it will be different and make it very competitive and close. And this is what Canelo wants he usually won in close fights or at least when he breaks down his big opponent like in the Kovalev fight. And for sure Smith body will be tested by Canelo's powerful body shots to slow him down.

To be honest. i have not followed the career of Smith yet and me living in the East side of the globe has just heard for the first time his name when he is paired with Canelo. You are right, fighting a lower tier boxer won't motivate you to train harder, that's the problem most boxers had. A fight with Canelo could be Smith's career paycheck i believe so better train hard for this one. BTW, OP already updated.

You should watch his high lights in Youtube and I'm sure you will find Smith a decent challenge for Canelo as he is tall as has the reach advantage. Yes, it will be his biggest paycheck, as Canelo is the new cash cow, with or without Golden Boy. And as I have mentioned, big big challenge for Canelo and good that he is fighting the best in his division but I think Canelo will get the nod here from the judges.

Canelo is a good boxer and even has been offered huge money in the contract signing of his career in becoming a pro boxer. Not only that, Canelo already prove its worth in every game he played. He is explosive and good in offense and defense. But I do like more on how offensive he is like dominating always in the ring. One of the best fight I had been watching and having a draw result was when he match with tripple G. I thought he gonna face Tripple G head on but he changed a little bit in his fighting style.

This is not a surprise... Canelo is still the most favorite boxer. Of course, if we look into their stat no wonder that gamblers will likely to put on him. The odds will tell whos gonna have a big chance to win, no doubt as well as we know Canelo performance from his previous fights with known and heavy puncher boxers as well.

No doubt, Caleb is the underdog here with only 20 fights, but he is taller and has longer reach. In other words, Caleb is bigger, and perhaps this could also potentially lead to an upset match, just like Lomachenko. The good thing is, middleweight is the natural weight class for Canelo.
If he can show different moves like Crawford, he might have a chance to win this fight because even though his opponent has some advantage due to the massive experience he gains from his last fights, new strategy and timing will get him a big score if used well in the ring. Sometimes it works well like what we have seen in the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Oscar Dela Hoya where the fans thought it would be a one-sided match but Pacquiao came up with a strong strategy and manage to win the fight with his strategy.
