Joe Smith Jr. to fight Umar Salamov and then Daniel Jacobs

According to ESPN.

After everything Smith has been through he does deserve a relatively easy title defense but still...

Rather see a rematch of Vlasov or unification.

Also hard pass on Jacobs fight.

I'd be extremely surprised if Jacobs get Smith. Arum isn't going to run the risk of a free agent winning the belt. Salamov and Beterbiev are in-house match-ups.

[AKAcronym]

Jacobs better not perform against Smith like he has in his past couple fights. However technically limited Smith may be, his power isn't to be messed with, especially for someone not naturally suited to LHW.

What a garbage two fight deal.

Top Rank diet...

Jacobs hasn’t looked good since 160. He’s not beating Smith

[ShaneMosleySr]

Smith better hit him because he’ll get outboxed if he doesn’t.

Beterbiev vs Joe Smith, Zurdo vs Bivol lets go already 175 WTF are they waiting for?

[GhostofDempsey]

Will be a good fight with Jacobs providing Joe gets past his mandatory. Danny is looking for a title shot against what he sees as the weakest link at 175.
