    Smith needs to throw more when he steps up the levels I have said this before. If not he won’t win enough rounds against high-quality opposition.

    Round 1 - 10-9 Smith
    Round 2 - 10-9 Smith

    Most fights don't need a second feel out round. Apparently, this one did. :(

    Crowd in full soccer mode, making up for the lack of entertaining product they're watching...

    Smith sucks. No consistent jab and footwork is poor too.

    Dalton Smith has an elite toolset but it's his implementation that can be questioned at times. It's like he's looking for the perfect gaps to capitalise too often instead of being proactive and forcing the gaps to open.

    Smith's risk averse low output style sends me to sleep. Looks classy when he lets his hands go but he does so sparingly. Azim throws more punches in a round than he does in six.

    "A sense of confidence from Dalton Smith!" Well.... I mean, he's fighting a guy with 0 KO's, I'm pretty sure even Gamal Yafai would be confident if he had a opponent like that..:sisi1

    Dalton Smith should seek a Nyquil sponsorship.
