Comments Thread For: Joe Smith Eager To Get Impressive Win Over Sullivan Barrera

[kingmaker]

well, you can say he should accept the fight with beterbiev but, the fact of the matter is when you lowball someone, chances are you don't want that fight. So you see it could be the other way around...

The fact of the matter is that it was Duva who was trying to lowball that purse bid. They lost 251000 to 181000 can't blame the other side if they put up more money than you.

Shabranskyy beat Yuniesky Gonzalez and was undefeated with 14 KOs in 17 fights going into the bout with Barrera.

shabranskyy was no good.

When did his stock fall so much. He was good enough for people to claim that Ward was ducking him just before the first Kov fight.

Plenty of talk on blogs here and elsewhere that that's a b.s. story anyway, so I'll stick w/my original comments, thanx.

You admit that you value blogs over professional reporting but you're the one who can't take me seriously ? It's been talked about in the montreal media also. I can't say what Smith jr. feels about the fight cause he hasn't said much, but his management made it clear that they don't want that fight right now.
