All that grunting from Smith didn't help him win that fight.

Like I said, a hometown advantage isn't looked upon as cheating. What's a 15 foot ring among friends? They just weren't Antwone's friends. Who knows what else was "tuned up" for Garcia to win?

aside from th very small ring...wonder what commish Dickie Cole will say...Smith looked like an old/shot fighter @ 25...he needs to reasses things as he can't go on like this...good win 4 garcia who kept slowly coming on...

i dont think an extra 4 inches would of helped Smith win the fight, Garcia dominated him from the 3rd round. Smith didnt do crap to try to fight back. maybe he was too cautious of Garcia's power.
