canelo vs mbilli sept - wbc handed him a soft comeback or is mbilli actually dangerous

[Taekim]

so canelo mbilli confirmed for september. everyone knows the setup: crawford gets striped for not paying 300k sanctioning fees, mbilli gets elevated to champion, suddenly canelo has a world title shot lined up. conveneint timing as always from the WBC. question is whether mbilli is the real deal or a calculated soft landing for canelo after the crawford loss. guy is 29-1 with 24 KOs. thats not nothing. but whos he actually beaten

anyone putting money on this one?

the WBC have accommodated canelo for years. boxing's sanctioning body politics make football's governing bodies look transparent. that's well documented
that said - and this matters - mbilli is legitimately dangerous. 24 knockouts means genuine one-punch power. canelo has never been knocked down professionally. those two facts collide in september and this is not the mismatch the booking makes it look.
also worth noting: the blueprint that beats canelo is movement combined with volume. bivol demonstrated it.crawford executed it near perfectly. mbilli's entire approach is the opposite - walks forward and trades. that actually suits canelo's defensive game more than either of those opponents did
