    Great last round for Smith, really showed his determination...

    Think he's done enough to take it. 7-5 maybe

    Fair play to Smith. I thought he was near to being stopped in the 10th.

    Round 9 Smith 10-9
    Round 10 Buatsi 10-9, close
    Round 11 Buatsi 10-9, close
    Round 12 Smith 10-9

    Both men throwing one twos, Callum marching forward, looping in hooks. Callum with hooks to the body, massive head shot, Buatsi almost goes down. Callum is reinvigorated, battring him, Buatsi fires off a few rights. Callum on the ropes, Callum countering well off the backfoot. Callum knocks his mouthpiece out again. They hold, lots of roughhousing. they trade overhands. Left hooks from Callum. Callum rocks him with a left hook, Callum teeing off on his skull. He's a mess. One two from Callum at the bell.

    117-111 Smith

    I have a feeling we're going to get a draw. I don't think either guy won enough clear rounds to claim that they clearly won the fight.

    Smith took round 12 and stemmed the tide.

    Great work by both men

    Buatsi has an absolutely ridiculous chin. Not many LHWs in history could take that kind of punishment and not touch the canvas.

    IMO, Smith won. What a well contested 12 rounds.
