    Lubin should clearly beat Smith.

    Didn't Lubin recently lose to some journeyman by brutal KO in R1? Smith can do it.

    I'm sorta surprised Ishe is still boxing. He had a great amount of potential, but just never made that leap. Fought too much like a sparring partner.

    Dave Moretti clearly likes Ishe Smith as he was scoring the Harrison fight in favor of Smith although i do no think there is any possible way to score it like that. Harrison won clearly and could have stopped Smith but he didn't want it. On my card Smith won three rounds out of 10. Smith is solid and he will put up a fight but Lubin should win this quite comfortably, probably by late stoppage.

    Smith is an OK fighter but whom has he beaten? Galarza? Bundrage?

    Why? how many times have you seen Ishe fight? And of those, how many times did he win the fights he was supposed to? Right now, the best one could call Ishe at 154, is a gatekeeper. Now, as a fan of Ishe, I would love to see one last excellent performance from him. But sadly, he's never had that killer instinct needed to be a top level boxer. Too much a sparring partner.

    The gentleman I was quoting said he expects lubin to stop smith obviously you can't read I said I would be surprised if it did happen because that's something I don't see happening Smith is very durable never been stopped

    I don't think Smith has any chance. He's the opponent because he'll never find Lubin's chin.
