prediction; the plodding stumblebum smith will not land one clean shot on BJS

[Boxing Logic]

Smith's team said he'd have a big fight this year. Bivol's name was even mentioned by Smith. Now they're talking not until 2020 and not vs Bivol, but only vs Saunders?

When are they going to fight Bivol? Hell, do it at 175 in the fall, even if Smith loses he keeps his 168 title, then he can still unify with Saunders in 2020. But ffs someone fight Bivol in 2019 we've been waiting all year (and last year...)

Joe 'The tracksuit' Gallagher.

Type of guy that will come over when your dad is hard at work during the day, phuck your mum and steal her ciggies on his way out the door.

Tell me I'm wrong.

Saunders is a runner like N'dam. Though very skillful defensively, Smith should catch him and KO him.

I like this match-up for both guys, but, alas it will never happen. Somehow, some way, BJS will screw it all up a week before the fight. Smith's folks need to prepare for this likelihood if they sign for that fight.

Agreed. He'll land plenty more than one clean shot before he KO's him. TBH, BJS will spoil the whole fight when he gets arrested days before for egging cars or something.

There’s other belts and good fights in the weight class, why should he call out the heavier fighters?

[Motorcity Cobra]

Why didn't they take the fight when it was offered? Because BJS was on the wrong side of the street?

Saunders sniff Smith!?
