    Wow Carl's chin was so epic, you can see he went unconscious for half a second, woke up before he hit the canvas and recovered immediately!

      Better than ever? He's noway near the fighter he was under Booth. He's just fighting lesser opposition.

              That Pascal fight was a underrated classic too imo, what a ****ing war that was, no idea how it went the distance... both were landing absolute bombs on each other.

                Forgot about that ... pascal was massive at the weight and still couldn’t nail Froch down

                  Fair play to Smith. Kept nice and solid, didn't let George get his right hand off and hurt him every time he landed. Nice finish too. Smith looks quite basic and text book but does everything very well.

                    I was really high on Smith in the amateurs and early on in his career but the last couple of years he became so basic largely down to his trainer and level of opponents, he really impressed me last night. His judgement of distance and timing was excellent, he reminded me why I was a fan of his years ago.
                    Groves looked a little washed IMO, the same dynamic movement and explosive hands don’t seem to be there anymore, his legs looked noticeably slower as well. But credit to Smith regardless, very impressive performance.

                      Yeah, 💯 with you. Joe Gallagher being in the corner limits him somewhat, but fair play, Callum did great. Shame the SMW division has lost a bit of spark recently and the horizon isn't that exciting now.
