    I think Ryder will be competitive early but gets stopped late.looking forward to it.

    I like Ryder, always have but the size difference here will be telling, as all of Smiths fights really

    Ryder is tough and game but he's too easy to hit against a guy like Smith. He'll have a go but either be stopped after 7 or 8 or hang on until the end and lose a UD. I can't see past a Smith win, the bloke is a quality boxer, huge for the weight class and too much for opponents that operate at the level that Ryder does.

    Ryder lasts 5 or 6 before being splattered.

    The size difference is far too much for Ryder, he is getting knocked out bad anytime between 1 and 6.

    Ryder to pull off the shock KO win in the 6th to 8th round.

    I think Callum Smith is overrated on here and that Ryder is more than capable of causing the upset.

    Come on man, Ryder struggled with rocky fielding, he has no chance here.

    He has improved alot since then and is coming off 4 stoppage wins in a row. What did you think of his performances in his last 4 fights since the Fielding fight? I would say he has been excellent and is a live dog in this one.

    Smith in rounds 7-8. Ryder will put up a good fight but I think Smith will boss it using his good fundamental skills and advantages. He’ll then get an opening and stop him.

    He does look better at super middleweight, he seems to have more power but the size difference is huge. I just can't see how he can win this fight.
