    It's disrespectful. Smith had to listen to it all in the build up to the first fight how Junior would only have to fight at 50% to beat him. You'd expect him to be humbled when he'd been chinned and learn from the loss but he's carrying on with the same rhetoric.

    I don't think him answering him and disagreeing with him means he's "rattled"

    Somehow I doubt it.

    Allen put in less than 6 rounds over 3 fights in 3 and a half years before this big payday.

    It's possible that Allen becomes a career gatekeeper after this fight. If he's smart, he'll learn how to nurse opponents to their UD victory a la Wach.

    Allen wasn't medically cleared to fight at one point and you want him to go to war?

    Not a chance man. To be a gatekeeper you have to go in with fairly decent opposition each fight. Each and every time Allen has gone in with someone remotely decent he's been battered.

    Whyte - Gassed after a few rounds against a rusty Whyte and took a beating
    Ortiz - Took a beating
    Yoka - Took a beating
    Price - Left the ring on a stretcher
    Usyk sparring - Out on his feet in sparring

    If he starts fighting decent boxers two or three times a year he ends up with brain damage within 5 fights if what he said about himself his true. You can't play boxing, especially heavyweight boxing, it ends badly.

    A gatekeeper for area level?

    He was for me definitely outpointing him last time until the end. Eubanks main hope is to take him out, cut out the Jones stuff and return to his old style
    Not this year but if clear I thin k he will box early next in a warm up . Then a big one summer 2024

    The showdown with Nelson was weird it was basically Nelson and smith interviewing Eubank.

    I actually can't believe we're still talking about Dave bloody Allen. I was hoping to never see or hear his name ever again.

    I agree just pointing out he has been in the ring a few times since he last appeared on Sky.

    Adam Azim is going the distance with Fanyan. Fanyan is technical and durable. I feel like Adams speed will be too much for Fanyan to handle and he'll shell up from the first round. Based off Adam's last fight idk if he will be able to break his opponent down to get the stoppage. Adam UD win.
