Don't buy anything right now

If I were you, and based on what you like to photograph, I recommend waiting a little while longer to see if Canon releases a RF mount APS-C camera.  The RP and R are not good for moving targets and especially BIF.  Their AF systems aren't up to the task and their burst rate is abysmal.  The R6 has adequate AF and burst rate but its 20mp sensor means you will need longer, heavier, more expensive zoom lenses to get the reach you will need for a full frame camera.  APS-C's 1.6x crop factor and pixel density would much better suit your needs and I expect Canon's first R system APS-C camera be basically be a R6 with an APS-C sensor and a lower price.
