Good fight for him i doubt he get over the humbling by Charlo to become a world champion hope he does but it was bad ko I doubt he got a chin

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

Oh no....Ishe fighting - snoozzzzzzzeeeeee!! How he still gets televised fights defies logic...at the top of the all time most boring fighter list with Rigondouex.

His fights against Harrison and Jrock actually weren't that bad.

But he's a good litmus test for these youngsters that get stopped and are trying to rebuild themselves back up.

Lubin is a guy that will go for the stoppage, but Smith isn't a guy you want to load up too much on as he is tricky enough to make you pay for it. This is a good fight for Lubin for sure. If he passes this test, then he can face a stiffer test next time around before getting back in the mix with the top dogs at 154.

Trainer is right, perfect fight for the perfect time! If you can't handle Ishe or Trout, you should probably reconsider your career moves! You don't have to get a KO, but you must NOT lose!

I hope Lubin learned his lesson and don't come in wearing all that Spartan gear like he did when he got knocked out by Charlo

Bounce back dude don't make me look bad...... AGAIN LOL

Lubin will win but will look bad doing it....Ishe in there not to excite or entertain...just to go the distance...

That's fine, it would be a good learning experience for him to go some hard rounds against a trick veteran who will be doing everything in his power to survive. This will be better for him opposed to just fighting a guy he will stop in two or three rounds.

agree....just hard to watch Smith do same thing rd after rd with no passion and seemingly no desire to ko his opponent or launch enough offense to win. Like watching a 10 rd sparring session.

Hope this dude can comeback and prove a lot of people wrong. Maybe it was too soon for him to fight Charlo or maybe he's just not that Good. Guess we'll find out.
