Comments Thread For: Callum Smith Mulling Several Offers From Hearn's Rivals

[BangEM]

The Smith brothers are better off without Hearn tbh.

Liam Smith was promised big fights but he keeps getting matched with Uber drivers since he joined Matchroom. And Callum Smith should be out there getting big fights since he has the talent to beat everyone in 160 and 168, and he’d be a handful for the top guys in 175.

Callum Smith is going to pbc. Hearn hasn’t done anything to elevate his profile. He’s to worried about signing American fighters

If he is a free agent then why not? Not sure why more boxers aren’t going that route. Whyte did it recently and he is allowed to speak to whichever promoter he feels like working with, that helps cuts out those little politics. If he sees more opportunities elsewhere then why not?

Look lets be honest no promoter is going to be able to please all of his clients that is almost impossible given all the fighters in this sport and THEY ALL want big money

Eddie might be signing too many fighters than he can handle

Being told that WBA super middleweight titlist, Callum Smith, is fielding offers from various promoters, is miffed with his current situation. Wants big money opportunities #boxing

I said this months ago, Smith has been discontent for a while. Joe is a bigger problem than Eddie though IMO.

LMAO at people who think BJS has a chance against Callum Smith.

BJS almost got beat by Eubank Jr. and the only half-decent boxer he beat is Lemieux, who’s Lucian Bute 2.0 with more power and a better chin.

Honestly, I think Eubank Jr destroys BJS in a rematch and Callum Smith sparks him out in 10 rds.

I agree. I have seen them both fight and I think Smith would easily KO Saunders. Saunders is mostly big talk and very little noteworthy action. All he has done in the last few years is outpoint guys GGG had already knocked out. His big win is on points over Lemieux with a bad left shoulder and he has gone down hill since then. He got a gift WBO 168 pound title by beating a lousy fighter nobody ever heard of. I do think Eubank beats him and Smith KOs him. All Saunders talks about is fighting GGG and Canelo but he never talks about fighting Andrade or Jacobs to deserve those fights if he beats them. Callum Smith is a damn good fighter in my opinion. He knocks guys out with head punches and body punches.

I think people just overrate those gypsy boys unnecessarily because of their style.

BJS hasn't even beaten anyone but people act like he's a world beater. He won a split decision against a pedestrian boxer like Eubank Jr., who was confused for the first 7rds and didn't do much. And everyone thinks he's the best thing since slice bread.

I believe George Groves can come out retirement and beat BJS pretty easily. BJS is another gypsy con artist like Tyson Fury who's looking for a big payday. He ducked Andrade, yet people think he's going to be competitive against Callum Smith. Smith is too big, too strong, too powerful and too skilled/composed for BJS. He'll cut off the ring, break him down and knock him out in less than 9 rds.

PBC is like a black hole - no one is going there, lol.

[SN!PER]
