Comments Thread For: Groves: That Wasn't the Best Callum Smith I've Seen; Was Flat

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

George Groves wasn't particularly impressed while watching Callum Smith secure his spot in their World Boxing Super Series final. England's Groves sat ringside Saturday night to watch his British rival fend off a tougher-than-anticipated challenge from late replacement Nieky Holzken in their WBSS super middleweight semifinal in Nuremberg, Germany. Liverpool's Smith won by large margins on all three scorecards (118-110, 117-111, 117-111), but he often had difficulty dealing with Holzken's right hand and was forced to hold the former kickboxing champion several times during their 12-rounder.

I don't see anything that Smith does better than Groves, I had high hopes for Smith but his last two fights show he hasn't progressed much beyond fringe title level.

War Groves!!!

Smith had a great amateur background and I won't be surprise if he outboxes Groves to win by decision.

So did Groves. Smith is literally untested and I won't be surprised if he folds after Groves lands a few jabs and right hands.

Groves have faced better opponents than Smith.
