Damn man, Joe Smith Jr has tremendous will!! I cant believe his management would take this fight right now smdh. I believe he still needs a few more tuneups before going into the deep end. I also believe Bivol destroys any version of Joe Smith Jr. I would love to see Joe land a few flush shots just to see how good Bivols jaw really is. Ill be there to see it if it really happens!! Lets go JOE!!!!
Thanks mammoth. totally different subject.. i can not find odds for jacobs devry anywhere at all.. i think its so weird. id like to know who the betting favorite is.
I have no clue, bro...
Bivol is gonna flatten this guy, totally different levels
All Joe has is a puncher's chance, which will never come unless Bivol gets overconfident and sloppy there
That's the rumor.....

Damn now that hbo is out of the boxing business, i wonder if this fight still gets made. Does anyone know what platform bivol will fight on now? Any rumors out there?
i would think hearn will snag him up and he will fight on dazn. Just a hunch

Bazooka Joe has more of a chance than given credit, remember he fractured his jaw early in the Barrera fight which kept him from mounting any offense afterwards!
When he did mount offense, he was making Barrera very gun shy and hesitant while taking shots an eventually getting dropped!
We don’t know how good Bivol’s chin is, for all we know it could be made from Taiwan and Joe could knock him out if he catches him with a straight right!
But yes, his management is garbage!
You can't go by other fights with fighters with completely different styles like Chilemba and Smith because styles do make fights. I'm not saying Smith beats him but I wouldnt write him completely off against Bivol. Bivol beat Chilemba but looked sloppy not like the hbo crew made it out to be.
I agree with this to an extent. While I believe Smith would be better served taking a tuneup, don't count him out in this fight.
Bivol clearly beat Chilemba, but Chilemba was landing a bit more frequently than the HBO crew were acknowledging.
I feel Bivol's defense is going to have to be more on point in this fight, otherwise, he might have some serious problems.
Last week the rumour was it was going to be a Bivol and Munguia double header, Munguia now saying he wants to end the year in Mexico. Maybe Bivol gone DAZN, Hearn saying his last 2 cards of the year will be headlined by 2 new signings.
I wouldn't be surprised. HBO should let Munguia fight scrubs in Mexico and only bring him back against better opposition.
Poor Joe. I wonder what kind of card they can even come up with for this though? HBO ain't got much for fighters.

Smith has b@lls 4 sure. I think this is a terrible matchup for him. Bivol is way, way too technical for him. I think Smith Jr. could hurt him but I can't see him landing the shot. I just hope it doesn't hurt his overall will. Kuddos for daring to be great.
Completely outclassed Barrera and chilemba, two guy's who give pretty much everyone tough fights. I don't see how joe even makes this competitive.

Joe doesn't strike me as a fighter who will improve all that much, if any. He has to grab the money fights where he can and if he is willing to assume the risk, more power to him.
this
joe is taking any tv fight he can get....for the money
I think Smith has a chance in this fight I don't think Bivol is as good as hbo is trying to make it seem.
