        My gut feeling is Beterbiev 8-10, but he suffers from more injuries than Mr bump these days. We'll see.

          Beating Beterbiev would be big. The Russian will be tough to the end--he is a fighter and won't leave quietly. Smith is good but will he get the job done? We will see.

            Smith has looked somewhat revitalised at 75 but his appalling showing against Canelo leaves a lot to be desired.

            But once again Beterbiev got put over by his stablemate Johnson with the catch and counter left hook Smiths is much crisper and arguably he's a bigger puncher and most certainly a better finisher.

            So if Beterbiev finds himself in a similar position he won't recover.

            But the odds of that are relatively slim, I personally have beterbiev 4:1 on but all these surgeries and injuries could catch up overnight.

              Worth putting on a bet for a Smith win by TKO. The problem for smith is he is a good fighter, but Beterbiev is a very good fighter, anyways looking forward to it.

                Looking very tough for smith getting his hand raised tbh but hey we've seen lots upsets throughout boxing history...you just never really know.

                  “Don’t sleep on _______.”

                  Beterbiev demolition commences. Every time.

                    It's a tough fight that's for sure. Beterbiev is getting on though and he takes damage when he fights. It's a bad combination. Sooner or later he'll find himself one fight too far. Might be this weekend. Might not.

                    I hope we get the Bivol fight before it happens.
