Comments Thread For: Hearn: Oleksandr Usyk, Callum Smith Double in U.S. Still The Goal

168 is crap though. best US fighter at 168 is Benevidez and that fight won't get made.

No interest in seeing Hart/Smith so I guess Smith/Dirrell is the fight? if so....pass lol

dirrel hell no! smith needs to move up to light heavy weight

Just do a double header with them in the UK...makes way more sense

Curious to see who Smith ends up fighting, not a lot of good options in the WBA rankings. Figured if it's in Chicago you could go with Feigenbutz or Chudinov to bring in some of the German or Russian populations respectively. But after seeing ODLH signed Bazinyan, maybe they bring him down from Canada for this one

Usyk yes. Everything about him resonates potential star power.

**** Smith though lol. He won’t put a single ass in a seat on this side of the Atlantic.

And Usyk will you believe ? I’d love for Uysk to gain as much momentum as Golovkin did but I don’t see a Ukrainian in the States doing any better than Kovalev or GG.

Usyk has that star power IMO. He’s just so damn lovable and silly in his interviews, and so talented in the ring. If promoted properly, I think he can be a sensation.

And let’s be real, do boxing casuals even know the difference between Kazakhstan, Russia and Ukraine? It’s all just “EE” to them (even though Kazakhstan isn’t even eastern or European)

Cobbler's! Smith makes weight @ 168Lb with ease & as Ring mag champion needs to unify with the IBF & WBC belt holders for now.
