    Good fight, I had it 117-111 Linares. If they do rematch then Crolla can surely only win by stoppage. I'd probably fancy Zlaticanin to knock Linares out at some point if he was ever to face him.

      Yeah Liam Smith goes from fighting an onion farmer from Montenegro to fighting Canelo in a PPV fight in America in front of 40,000 people. I still don't know how that works.

      He would have had to be a phenom to make such a leap in competition. He did alright, ffs.

      Maybe some yanks really rated Pedrag Radosevic.

          I think so too. The division is wide open for Mikey to get back on top if he wants it.

            It quickly went from 'GGG Vs Brook is a circus fight that is a disgrace to boxing' to 'Brook got exposed against GGG'.

            And, 'Who's Liam Smith' to 'Smith got exposed against Canelo'.

            They want it both ways.

              I am looking forward to someone claiming Lee Haskins was exposed in the future.

                    UK fighters have been winning for nearly 2 years straight against guys who were supposedly step ups, remember Brook-Porter?

                    Yeah we lost a couple of bouts, but we'll be back. Can't say the same for the shitshow that is US boxing right now.

                      Just come back from the fight. Great performances from Linares, he is just a beautiful boxer to watch. The Crolla fans around me were somehow surprised he didn't get the win
