Paul Smith didnt look thattt good... he kept throwing the jab then overthrowing the right hand and clinching. same thing over and over.
whatd you guys think? and who won?
the show made it seem so much better .. granted hard shots were landed back and forth at times
but Smith simply won the decision on agression, and because he was doing more.
just on that fight in my opinion
Smith should go to 160 ... he looked a little flubbery around the gut
he would get torn apart by anyone who can pop at Super Middle.
moving to Middleweight would be in his best interest.
because regardless of how he let Banks get to his head or not .. he damn near lost to a counter puncher with 17 pro fights
*eeking out a Split decision is kinda worrysome. look how Pepe was hyping up Paul Smith before hand "if you don't win a world title before you retire, I'll kiss you ass"
or something along those lines. i know it had World title in it .. but not sure about the ass kiss bit.
yeah i was going to smith but i actually had banks winning too i was trying to find rounds to give to smith but i think i could only give hi mthe fourth where he wobbled him
banks got robbed IMO...i knew banks would win when i saw oe of smiths previous fights...he is way too inactive for a 5 round fight...his style is basically to walk you down and punch in mid range but his punch output is too low for it to be effective, he is very defensive too, he stops in his tracks in the middle of a combo if you punch him once and has to start walking you down again, which makes him very inconsistent....his power is the only thing that can win him rounds with this tactic only when he wobbles the other guy like he did in round 4, but all oters he didnt do ****...even though banks wasnt doing much himslef...
