Team Smith ducking the BJS fight.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

I know for a fact Smith wanted to take this fight but greedy people are standing in the way. I’d confidently pick Smith to beat BJS but his team can’t stand the idea of sending one of their fighters to the other side of the street even though it’s a far better deal than anything else he has on the table.

Expect Smith to have more meaningless fights, probably on undercards. All his momentum from the WBSS or whatever is left of it is being wasted.

I'd have picked Mundo to beat Saunders tbh.

50/50 deal seemed fair. Gallagher said that Smith is the A-side, but really it's not like he is a big star himself. Disappointing, maybe they are setting up a fight with Jacobs later this year or possibly early 2020?

He should go after Eubank. Winnable fight, and if they make the fight it will likely be for the lineal title as TBRB has them #1 and #3, but Zurdo Ramirez is #2 and he's moved up. Plus Eubank has a minor belt if Smith wants that.

Then Smith would hold the WBA (Super), WBC Diamond, IBO, Ring, and lineal super middleweight titles.

Could you elaborate a bit? This is easily in my top 5 desired fights right now

Might it be a case of Smith's team wanting to stay in the running for the Canelo Golden Ticket?

That is too bad. Smith is a damn good fighter and I think he would easily beat Saunders.

For any other fighter people would be screaming DUCK for sure and I like Callum but that BS Excuse that Eddie Hearn gave today made Callum look WEAK (which he is not)

What was the excuse?

A good friend of mine went to school with some of the Smith brothers, he told me around a week ago that Callum 100% wanted to take the Saunders fight but his management was standing in the way of it happening and they were trying to resolve it. It’s now clear to me that his management have blocked this fight from happening.

It’s terrible! Smith could potentially be the best fighter this city has ever produced but he’s wasting his prime years fighting blown up Middleweights on undercards.
