Him and groves to clear best fighters in it and delighted eubank is in it cos see him get knocked out by either of them

[Citizen Koba]

Probably a smart choice. Not only has he been messed around plenty already, but recent events should have put any foreign fighter on notice that going to the hometown of a Haymon fighter in the US right now is a risky proposition at best.

Good decision. This will definitely determine who the best SMW is next to Degale. I look forward to see him vs Eubank and Groves. Very surprised by his heart.

So who is Dirrell fighting for the vacant WBC Super Middleweight title? Will it be Yildirim or Benavidez?

Too bad jack isn't in this

Props to smith for joining this! Dirrell brothers are a bunch of acting phonies.....

he moved up to 175. I think he is fighting nathan cleverly for the wba belt on may vs mac undercard

That's the 1st thing I noticed as well. All these whack home cooking referring and judging. No FKN way Easter won every round. Or that crap 9 rounds to 3 for Horn.

Or even the ref. In Kov./Ward 2. He wasn't gonna help Kov. At all

And the judging in Their 1st fight.

Dirrell in his hometown LMAO... How dumb they think Smith is???

so who is dirrell fighting for the vacant wbc super middleweight title? Will it be yildirim or benavidez?
