    Ste Smith close points win. This is a quality match up if it is actually going to happen

    :huh Come on!!

    This match-up has to be some sort of sick joke...pitching a 10 fight, 2 year pro against someone as experienced and seasoned as Simpson. Smith should at this stage should be looking at fighters like Joe Murray or Bhatia. Simpson wins this at a canter

    The Appleby performance won't happen again. Love how people underestimate Simpson.

    sometimes boxers cant win, criticised for not stepping up early enough, and then when there is a hint of someone doing that, the brakes come on.

    If this is true then fairplay to Smith, think its a little early myself, Simpson is a quality operator and in good form.

    EDIT - This can't be true Smith's a FW fighter! Step up? Pah!

    a cant see this happenin be a gd fight if it did but think its to early in smiths career can see him having a few more fights before he gets a fight like that probs another 4 or 5

    If this is true i favour Smith purely because i trust Frank not to put a top prospect in with somebody who could beat him at this stage of his career lol. Really though i think Smith is pure class 10 fight novice but i think he might show his pedigree here

    It wont happen. Thats a fact. Remember Smith's a Warren fighter.

    I'm not having a go at Smith here, but whoever the match maker is needs a ****ing kicking. If its for the Commonwealth strap then it once again demeans a once proud title.

    Stephen Smith is a worlsd class prospect and will proove it agaisnt Simpson.

    this is simular to when Clev faced Oakey. Smith will take a close UD and people will start to realise how good he is.

    Warren showing some balls with this one, i was expecting Smith vs Bhatia or Trusscott.
