Is it safe for me to cancel my Amex Bonvoy card now?

I received the Amex SPG card back in February. Got the 100k Marriott point bonus.

I want to get the Chase Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit card to get the 50k sign up bonus.

I understand I must first cancel my Current Amex Bonvoy card and wait 30 days before applying for the Chase card (per the below)
  • are a current cardmember, or were a previous cardmember within the last 30 days, of Marriott Bonvoy™American Express® Card (also known as The Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express);
Do you think Amex will claw back my bonus since I am cancelling within a year? I've been actively using the card, so its not like I abandoned the card once I got the bonus.

Anyone cancel the Amex and get the Chase card recently?
