He's not a massive fan of pressure from a good fighter.
Forget Canelo. Canelo's Canelo!
That Ryder fight was not close. Smith is not effective going backwards. He got done on the inside and moved around the ring at will. Ryder is a fairly low output fighter but he did absolutely everything he would have hoped to do.
Smith never discouraged him with a jab or put a dent in him or managed to get to Ryder's body.
He fought Canelo off the back of that!?
People were surprised he was so meek against Canelo? He was bang out of form and he is levels below anyway.
He has world class power but not a world level jab and at that sort of level his best punch is a left Hook to the body or head landed inside despite his frame. Is he gonna take out Beterbiev in one shot?
No.
Could he land to the body fairly often? I think so. He could land a fair few big shots.
I am sure he will be a decent threat this time.
