    Yes, and believe me, he knows it. :good (He and I are pals on Facebook - not that my scoring is at all biased due to this. :yep If he was losing to a guy like Garcia I'd be offering constructive criticism..)

    He is highly motivated at this stage and inspired by his friend and benefactor, Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    Round 6

    Garcia is moving in and out, trying for single head shots at a time while Smith either slips or rolls with them (not minding the slight contact) and works the body. Very effective counters by Smith, especially to the body with that left hook although he is dropping the arm very low to throw and pull back. Garcia is doing a lot of pushing and grinding against Smith, and gets SMACKED out of a clinch by a double left hook to the face. Garcia is looking a little shaky.

    10-9 Smith, big round.

    60-53 Smith

    "What happened? What's wrong?"

    "I don't have air..."

    "Finish this round. Please, finish this round..."

    "I don't have air, I can't breathe..."

    "Finish this round!! :fire"

    - exchange in Garcia's corner.

    That's when the main Showtime card starts.

    There is a 10-round co-feature before the main event.

    So two more hours before Matthysse vs. Olusegun begins.

    Round 7

    Smith is whipping Garcia with hooks to the body and head and spackling the holes with the rainbow right. Garcia is getting rocked back by jabs and slapping left hooks. Smith has him where he wants him, moving backward in straight lines. Body shots by Smith scoring easily. Garcia leans in and holds. A few weak back taps by Garcia in the clinch. Right hand and a big left hook by Smith, spinning himself off balance as he misses/grazes Garcia. BIG left hook by Smith, this one landing. Garcia is flopping all over the place just trying to hold on and ride it out.

    10-9 Smith

    70-62 Smith
