    And why wouldn't he? Groves is getting an opponent who is straight up down with no special effects, and doesn't appear to be able to adapt tactically and switch up his attack or his tempo when things aren't going to plan for him.

    He could have been this version of Smith even with influenza.

    I know, precisely the point. Groves has swept the division because the elite guys left.

    I also like a beer but may I suggest you put the alcohol down and get a good nights sleep.

    Never got the hype regarding Smith.

    Very motivational fight from Holtzken

    Holtzken just took a dump on British Amatuer boxing. He was suppose to be severally outclassed.
    I had it 8-4 Smith

    Holzken arguably won as many or even 1 more round against Smith than Eubank did against Groves last week. :lol: Huge moral victory for the guy. He can come again... Chudinov fight is even more appealing now tbh.

    Nieky very aggressive lands one two, Callum jabbing away, Nieky lands looping right hook, oe two snaps Callum's head back, Callum lands uppercut right cross combo, Nieky walks right through it, Nieky lands right that shakes up Callum, he pins him on the ropes, Callum slips away, Callum lands one twos Nieky lands looping hook to body. Nieky pins him along the ropes wals away with 4 punch combo, Callum soaks it up.

    119-109 Smith

    118-110 and 117-111 are fine as well.
