    Smith now fighting Thompson rather than Soro. Does he win the vacant title? :think

    Not gonna get an easier chance than this for a world title. John Thompson would struggle to win a British title if he was from here

    Anyone seen Thompson fight? Is he any good? Is he British/Euro/Fringe world/World Level?

    Looking at his record he hasn't even been passed 8 rounds yet, and only had one fight scheduled to go 10 rounds.

    It fairness it's not Smith's fault Soro pulled out, who is a legit top 10 guy.

    Thought he didn't pull out it was a case of the fight being announced before terms were agreed??

    Was a poster produced?

    Don't know a lot about Thompson other than he's never been twelve rounds and looks in good shape.

    Smith should stop him I'd imagine looking at the levels.

    No, Soro had a falling out with his manager or promoter.

    Got to give ****** credit, has got Flanagan and Smith shots neither deserved against fairly poor opposition in both cases.

    He has the WBO in his pocket, not hard to work out why.
