Ishe Smith vs Gabriel Rosado?

I think Rosado beats him in a tough hard fought fight, and it'll go the distance.

Favor Rosado

Rosado / Molina both beat him

I think Rosado wins but it would be a good fight. i'm thinking cotto looks to fight him next

I think Rosado wins but it would be a good fight.

Really??? Rosado was the Mandatory for the IBF belt @154 but decided to go up to 160 for a bigger fight vs Golovkin. The other guys are good opponents but to say they deserve it more is nonsense! Yeah really, everyone of them has a better resume than Rosado and Angulo has a KO win over Rosado. Kirkland beat Angulo and technically Molina. Molina has questionable losses (Kirkland, Chavez Jr), Lara has fought Molina and Vanes to a draw and was out and out robbed vs Williams. The only one that is even in question is Vanes, but he is undefeated and his resume is at least as good as Rosados. What is it about Rosados resume that makes you believe that he deserves a title fight over these fighters. Getting butchered by GGG?

Smith can only fight journeymen from now on. I fear for his mental health if he step up his competition, he's been thinking of pulling a Valero then he acted mentally unstable after winning the belt from one of the worst belt holders in the history. K9 without that belt, was just a gatekeeper/journeyman kind of fighter. Any decent guy with a 5-20 record will put K9 in place, he only had the barking thing going for him, apart from that, he stinks

I've given Canelo crap for fighting soft touches in post after post. But it's been a long time since the IBF 154 lb belt was contested between two quality fighters (04 Winky/Mosely). What's good for Canelo is good for Smith. He should fight Lara, Vanes, Molina, Kirkland, or Angulo. These guys deserve the opportunity way more than Rosado Rosado won The IBF title eliminator in September but moved up to fight GGG. He definitely is deserving of a 154 title shot.

Rosado has more tools at his disposal than K9 does. Rosado has good pop and Ishe doesn't. Rosado is pretty good on the inside and Ishe isn't. Rosado is a better finisher as well and is more eager to let his hands go. Rosado TKO10.

Rosado beats Smith but saying that it will be Molina given the chance to fight since he is the top contender and Smith has said he will give the likes of Molina and Rosado a chance to fight him.

I think rosado will win. Smith sits on cruise control in his fights, he just doesn't have that push to actually win fights

that being said who wins Rosado vs Smith? Not really seen much of Rosado so hard to say. Probably lean on Rosado from the little I've seen.

Good even match Rosado would prolly edge a close decision, really 50/50 fight to me.

Ishe's not keeping the belt long. Any top fighter beats him. He's passed his prime, he wasn't even good in his prime. He should retire now he's won the belt. This is the highest point he will ever be in his career. that being said who wins Rosado vs Smith?
