Josh Warrington v Mitchell Smith @128lbs

Not even entertaining the idea of the fight at a catchweight, if Smith wants to run his mouth about Warrington then he should go down in weight and fight him. I like Smith as a fighter, looks a decent prospect but he is an absolute bellend, an seems to have some very strange obsession with Warrington.

 

Mitchell is the better kid -I think he will handle Warrington
Who will generally fall a bit short of World level due to his lack of power

 

Mitch by tko round 8

 

Smiths obsession with warrington is strange his boxing up at super feather and has a world ranking with wbo. Tho his only won a domestic title at english level with out defending it he dropped it. Wen i asked him why he fought Tuberion at super feather he said he didn't want to lose his world ranking. Warrington wont move up his not the biggest feather then u hav promotional issues just cant see how this fight can get made. Ste wood (josh manager ) responded on twitter to smith offering his own super feather john boy quigley for smith. He didnt seem to keen saying quigley was boring and rubbish. Quigley 12-0. Then smith is matched with jupp 15-2 i think. Surely if smith wants to go down to feather why not match him their and go after british title winner of walsh samir wud b a good start and step uo

 

Agreed. Warrington makes fw with ease and could probably do sbw if he was to use the dehydration method so its unfair to do this at cweight. Also iv had it on v.good authority that smith wouldnt be able to make fw. So i doubt this fight will eved get made.
Also just my twopeneth. Im not sold on smith hes deluded about his own ability and he hasnt been in with anyone yet although i do believe the jupp fight is the beginning of putting him in with there with a more live opp. It was interesting that he relinqished the english when townend was made mand.
I would say that hes been brought along well by frank and thats how it should be

 

Spot on mate. Wen our kid fought josh, josh put a couple of pound on over night not alot really imo he cud deffo do super ban at that time and possibly still cud.. As for smith dropping english wen townsend was mandatory i was surprised tho on a good run and can punch townsend had already lost 3 times.

 

Ye mate josh refuses to do the intense dehydration game and if he did do it he would have no problem making sbw.
Your right it was a bit of a suprise but what other explaination is there when smith dropped the belt it wasnt as tho he was holding a load of belts at the time. Id like to see him fight andy townend it would be a real good test for smith. Townend has 3 loses but his form of late is spot on and his k.o rate is far better than smiths who alledgedly has the hardest punch in boxing.
Smith does annoy me the way he goes on about josh hes a mouthy punk who hasnt really proved anything yet but i suppose to be fair hes a yung brash kid whos trying to make a name and living for himself.
Lets see how josh deals with brunker next week. This is certainly a tough opp for josh but im predicting a late stoppage or pts win for warrington.

 

Do you know josh well?. I think josh will beat brunker points quite wide margin think it will tough early but josh take over midway thru. Smiths power is decent but he didn't stop cope who townsend blew away. Its wen he steps up we will see wat his power is really like. Townsend got lee glover that sud b a decent fight.

 

warrington a good fighter and a nice lad, smith a good fighter and a proper dinlo. think warrington beats brunker, but smith and selby both have the beating of him, especially selby.
