    He does not have a great future at 168 or any other division in boxing. Guy is a serviceable boxer who will never get a top 10 win.

    I hate that grey haired ****er, but you are right.
    I ain't ruling out Paul Smith winning a world title, 4th times the charm.

    Another nail in the coffin of our sport. Holzken is a blown up welterweight shot kickboxer who stepped in at 5 days notice and is 0-3 in his last 3 kickboxing fights. Smith looked about 4 weight divisions bigger than him too.

    I used to dislike Smith but I became a fan after he beat Williams properly in the rematch. Made weight and beat him clearly when he could have easily avoided the rematch.

    Will be supporting him if he has to go stateside on May 5 to fight Ali.

    We should all pack it up boys. Boxing is the laughing stock of the combat world.

    I'm not in the least bit angered or disappointed by it I'm actually delighted it happened just as I was when Sugar ''Money'' Mack exposed boxing for the sham of a sport it is.

    Fairplay to this guy going the distance, i didnt give him any chance at all and expected a Smith blowout early doors. Credit to him.

    Holzken is a G.

    He's also rather easy on the eye.

    I expect the bookies odds to shift massively in Groves' favor from now on.

    I feel ashamed and embarrassed to call myself a boxing fan. Imagine if Holzken had trained for Smith for a couple of weeks, let alone had a full camp to do it.

    Naz signing the praises of Usyk, reckons he's going to ''wipe out'' the HW division.
