    Looking forward to this one, I'm picking Beterbiev to win via late stoppage, but I'm not at all discounting Smith's chances. Beterbiev just had surgery to his jaw, which is never a good thing, but has downright disasterous potential when you're in with a guy who has heavy hands himself. Smith does have the longer time out of the ring by a few months, but Beterbiev has been out nearly a year himself and factoring in his age, I'd say the rust is about even, if not slightly worse for him.

    Regardless of how it lands, should be a pretty fun matchup while it lasts. Here's hoping the winner of tonight's contest next steps in the ring against Bivol for all the marbles :ggg

    Do you think Sanchez can pull off the upset?

    It might just be the fight night hype getting to me, but switching my pick to Smith by KO. Beterbiev has been on the decline, I think it’s finally the day where he shows his age.

    Absolutely, I picked him in the League. Although if it goes the distance, I'll be quaking in my boots.:lol:

    Callum Smith I give a huge chance of KOing a younger fresher Beterbiev, just based on styles. This older version, no one is sure what he has left against an undrained Callum, who might have more one punch KO power at 175 than he does, with that mousetrap of a left hook of his, this match could be the toughest of Artur's career. While certainly a risky as hell pick, I like the way Callum has been talking all week and the confidence he's been showing. Callum Smith KO in 3.
