Steve Kim and Dan Rafael are anti Al Haymon. Disrespectful in the whole build up. The only thing they should do now is eat crow and be humble.

Too bad fonfara found his guy so early in his quest for a another belt fight though ... Not Champ worthy by any means... Pascal should jump on the occasion and rebuild some confidence...

Knocking down 2 other ridiculously overrated, mediocre fighters with empty resumes (Stevenson and Chavez Jr) made people think he was great?
He's the stiffest, most predictable 1-2 fighter I've ever watched.
Tall and lanky but rarely at more than elbow distance. No combinations. No head movement, no lateral movement. See with your eyes not your ears.

Fonfara never was a defensive wizard, so this isn't a stretch... unless you look at the unknown factor of Smith and automatically equate that to 'bum'... which is ridiculous. Unknown means unknown. Doesn't mean bum. I wish Smith well in his upcoming fights. As for Fonfara, he'll still be a draw in Chicago because of always being in fun fights.

Man i hope that a bunch of you been watching joe smiths club fights and realized that he was way underrated and the power is serious! +1200. Ridiculous. Gotta love it. I'm happy for him And for everyone that made some money on that. After really watching his YouTube fights it was a no brainer to put money on him.

Smith's counter looked like it caught Fonfara right in the temple and nearly switched his lights out just like that.

I was there everyone started crying when Fonfara got KO'ed. I couldn't believe it myself. Almost didn't seem real. Fonfara was never great defensively. As a matter of fact, he has terrible defense, but he's tough as nails so I'm still surprised he got KTFO like that.
Smiths power is real, but I'm not sold on him. Mainly cuz I can't judge him off of the fact that it's his first true test. Granted, he was a huge underdog traveling to Chicago and scored a huge KO, but it was 1 round. I want to see him go the distance with a top guy before I say he's a top fighter in his divison.
