    This should of been called
    ‘Guaranteed carnage’.

    Amazing fight though my most anticipated fight of the year.

    Good for Beterbiev.

    He should be undisputed by the end of the year.

    You know, that poster is pretty creative. I dig it.

    Nice card, this should be a fun one. If I lived in the NE I would attend.

    "What's your prediction?"

    "Prediction?"

    "Yes what's your prediction for this fight?"

    "PAIN"

    Winner fights Canelo after.

    Canelo is better off fighting Beterbiev. Easier of the two.

    Another great matchup. Upcoming we got Spence-Crawford (hopefully), AJ-Usyk, Donaire-Inoue, kambosos-Haney,
    and Charlo-Castano could be good, then Benevidez-Lemieux should be a banger.

    And of course, Mayweather-Don Moore should be fantastic and well worth the $199PPV.

    Arguably the most exciting and mouth-watering match up which can be made in the sport right now

    Beterbiev is past his prime at 37 y/o and Smith is smack bang in the midst of his

    But stylistically it's a delicious match up

    Two of the most devastating punchers in the entire sport

    Both have crazy engines

    Both can throw all night and I mean bombs all night

    Both can punch holes in castle walls

    Both tough and very physically strong indeed

    And both have hurt, dropped, stopped or KO'd almost everyone they've fought

    Everyone in Beterbiev's case as obviously he sports a KO 100%

    He's also dropped everyone he's fought

    Smith has either badly hurt, dropped, stopped or KO'd everyone he's fought since moving up to the world level

    Done the same to at least 15 of his last 16 opponents and it might even be all 16

    Listen to what Otis Griffin who has fought a lot of good guys says here about facing Smith

    He said Smith is a moose and that it hurt! when he hit him and when Smith was leaning on him it felt like he was pushing on a wall

    Another great match up to look forward to, along with a nice co-main event.

    surely Beterbiev will be on all p4p lists after he KOs Smith

    100 % KO ratio and unifying 3 world titles deserves respect.

    Joe does not survive this.

    Sorry Smith Jnr fans but he was only ever keeping the belts warm for Beterbiev.
