    Callum Smith vs Anthony Dirrell

    With Jack moving up to 175 Smith will most probably face Anthony Dirrell for the vacant title

    Who wins ?

    Smith. Dirrell is the more accomplished boxer in many ways, but he also has no heart. Smith to end him within four.

    If my American chums on here think Callum is like his brothers (I.e. world-level gatekeepers but nowt more) then they are in for a rude awakening. Unlike Dirrell, who is going to sleep.

      It would have been more interesting if it was Andre instead of Anthony .

        Jury is still out on Smith, if he's as good as they claim, he'll breeze by Anthony. If he's mostly hype, I see Anthony stopping him. Dirrell has a big punch, but not great at setting it up, nor a high output.

          Anthony, not Andre

                Callum hasn't really been tested yet. He's a bit skinny and may not absorb punishment well, but he has the power and the range to put up a great fight vs. anyone.

                I'd love to see Zurdo vs. Callum someday.

                  Andre is the one that runs around...I don't see how that is more interesting.

                    Its a good fight. I think Dirrell could win tbh.

                    Dirrell faded late against Jack, but Smith seems to lose all creativity and looks like ****e if the fight gets past the firstfew rounds.

                    Callum can be awesome in the opening few rounds though. In most of his step up fights he has really done a number on his opponents. Rebrasse aside.

                    Both have talent but both are flawed. Could be an entertaining scrap
