Comments Thread For: Joe Smith Jr. Eyes Big Fight: Now Everybody Knows Who I Am!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Very few in the boxing industry even gave Joe Smith Jr. a chance of being competitive versus perennial Top 5 light heavyweight contender Andrzej Fonfara, largely due his relative anonymity in the sport. Even fewer believed he would win and it's doubtful that anyone among the crowd he brought from Long Island to the UIC Pavilion in Chicago could have predicted the night would have ended the way it did.

Didn't know anything about Smith going into the fight, but watching him warm up I thought this could be competitive. I just wish the fight could of gone a couple more rounds.

Acctually didnt look like he was in trouble, i think he was setting him up with that right hand, maybe even feinting being hurt, cause as soon as that punch landed and Fonfara went to the ground, Smith ran rapidly to the neutral corner

should stevenson fight him or beterbiev?

Joe Smith was very impressive.

Personally I would like to see Joe Smith vs Slava, and the winner gets a title shot.

Cleverly, Gonzalez or Barrera would be a better match... No need to kill his hype in a hurry because he won't last long ...

A white American boxer who want big fights? Really? I'm shocked to see that, real boxing is not a Rocky movie and white Americans usually don't last long in pro boxing, they can't compete. Not disrespecting anybody, but it's a fact

It's like some decent African hockey player dreaming about NHL

I can't see a white american being an elite fighter now. If it wasn't for Britain and ex-Soviet bloc, they'd be still praying for great white hopes to come

Anyway, good luck to the guy, wish him the best. I'm glad to see a new player in the division that is too stacked with talents already

Stevenson has to fight Alvarez next...so Smith might fight Bieber...or Bieber might fight Fonfara next after he got rekt

I'm glad someone else was actually watching the fight.
