Smith has extremely wide shoulders and is a deceptive opponent for anyone. I think his reach throws a lot of people off, opponents think they are out of range and then he comes down with a right hand. Did you guys not notice the punishing blows smith was landing throughout???
I think fans get tunnel vision when certain fighters fight. Not sure how anyone had hopkins ahead at the time of the KO. Smith was out landing, the aggressor, and landed some nasty power shots that had Bhop looking different.
Can someone shed some light on why Hopkins camp thought it would be best to fight a 28 year old coming off a KO off a top 5 light heavyweight?
Someone in his camp needs to be fired, this was not an ideal opponent for a 51 year old.
