    Whose performance were you more disappointed with? Smith or Loma losing

    Loma / P4P #1, Ring, WBA, IBF, WBO on the line, let’s go of the first half, risking assuming Lopez would tire out, or he respected Lopez’s power? Blames judges, says there was an injury that affected his performance

    Was Loma expected to win?

    Smith / Ring #1, WBA+WBC 168 on the line, doesn’t engage much like Loma, only starts to take chances after Round 8? Fans see an injury during a fight. Accepts defeat, says Canelo’s jab surprised him, but that’s his power wasn’t all that.

    Was Smith expected to win?

    Loma - threw first half of the fight, respected Lopez power too much

    Smith - was too afraid to get countered, respected Canelo’s power too much

    I don't believe Loma was P4P#1, those that did are probably a little more disappointed with his performance. I still picked him to win a tough decision. It took him until the 7th/8th to truly get going and when he did, he was genuinely trying to win the fight. It was too little, too late but he gave everything in the last 5 rounds and fought like a man who believed he could win.

    At no point during Canelo-Smith did I think Callum is here to win, he's trying everything he could to win and he truly believes he can do it. After about 3 rounds I realised that he's not here to win, doesn't believe he can and probably won't try to. Yeah, he threw more punches in the mid-rounds but he did nothing to change my mind. Like Andrade said after 5 rounds, 'Callum's not here to win.' Which was probably the most accurate analysis of his performance during the fight.

    Voted for Smith because he didn't come to win, nor did he show that he had any belief that he could. At least Loma genuinely tried to turn things around.

        Definitely Loma, I don’t knoo why he waited so long to get going, he would have won if he started a few rounds earlier..

        Smith was plain out classed and knew after a few rounds he was levels below

          I never expected either guy to win honestly. Although I did pick Lopez and Canelo to win by knockout. I was wrong on both fights but I will say that I might've been right if Smith or Lomo had engaged a little more than they did. Both were in survival mode the bigger portions of their fights.

                Lomachenko. He literally gave away the first half of the fight.

                I never considered grossly overrated Smith a threat to Canelo.

                  Definitely Loma. He was supposed to take that youngster to school. It doesn't really bother me that he lost, what bothers me is that he barely threw a punch in the first half of the fight. For somebody that they call The Matrix and Hi Tech he wasn't very impressive early on. Had he actually used his hands more the fight could have been way better
