England’s Callum Smith has issued a statement after his lopsided decision loss to Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Smith and Canelo met inside the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas on Saturday night, with Smith’s WBA and The Ring<\/em> super-middleweight titles on the line, and the vacant WBC super-middleweight strap also up for grabs. Despite towering over Alvarez at 168 pounds, and being hailed as one of the Mexican’s toughest tests of late, Smith was ultimately comprehensively thumped en route to a unanimous decision loss.<\/p>\n

After the fight, which reaffirmed Canelo as one of boxing’s pound-for-pound kings and its boldest champion, Smith took to Instagram to issue a classy statement.<\/p>\n
