Smith is surprisingly good on the inside for someone so tall at SMW, the key is his ridiculous reach as when he can't get through a tight guard, he just goes around it. This has been shown in the majority of his stoppage wins in which he has ripped the wind out of his opponent with a vicious hook-come-uppercut (been hearing it called a screw-shot a lot recently) to the floating rib. Groves got a similar stoppage in his QF fight against Cox; when it lands right it buckles the legs completely for highlight-reel KO. If there is a stoppage, this might be the way it happens. I only hope it doesn't end up finishing due to Groves' shoulder coming back out.
