    Your question is irrelevant and has nothing to do with how the term smashed is usually used in boxing. Garcia did smash Barrios though. If you think haney did the same to norman then get glasses.

    Barrios seemed to be stuck in the mud the entire fight. Stood in front of Ryan and let him get his shots off. Fair play to Ryan he did what he needed to do

    No doubt an improvement from his performance against Romero.

    He’d shoe shine his way to a scrappy points win not destroy him.

    In perspective, he fought probably the weakest WW titlist since Andrew 6 heads Lewis.

    Barrios has been waiting to lose to someone since he's held a belt. It was a win that gave him a belt and rinsed away the Rolly loss (it really didn't that was a horrible loss) in the eyes of some. His performance wasn't all that great, it was better than Rolly but.............yeah. There's some styles that would always simply end up with Ryan on top, there's other styles he would look horrible against. This fight was the former. The WW division is pretty horrible right now though so "res ipsa loquitur"

    He looked good vs a very average Barrios
