Am hearing rumors round the boxing circles that these fights are in the pipe line

Yep, De Gale can beat Smith easy, he may run out of gas but I think he would land so many telling blows early I doubt Smith would be in a position to make it count.

First 6 rounds all De Gale and last 6 rounds would be like Smith v Quigley

 

The Bellew-Fry fight seems the most likely to happen to me. The others are more than 6 months off IMHO.

 

Maybe a little early for him, no?

 

From a talent point of view DeGale is streets ahead of Smith, but he isn't anywhere near ready for a title fight over 12 rounds, he'd be blowing out of his arse after 6:deal

 

Possibly, he defo aint ready for a decent 12 rounder I just dont rate Smith at all and Jim Mac would have De Gale as ready as possible in the gym.

De Gale is also alot bigger so would not surprise me if he stopped him early.

 

DeGale vs Smith cannot happen within 6 months, due to DeGale needing to get accustomed to 12 rounds (he has only done a 4 rounder so far!) and Smith would not be willing to fight at 6/8 rounds and give up his title.

 

Smith will defend his WBO Title against DeGale in a year to 18 months time I reckon, all being well.

 

maybies aye maybies naw

 

de gale with all due respect to him, is untested, and wont be properly for about another year o so, smith would not step in to the ring with him at all in the next 2 years. plus both are FW fighters, and he would never let this happen.

By the way, as good as degale is, wouldn't live with smith or other top british smw at the moment in time.

 

your definately hearing wrong with Fury-Price, minor chance it could happen in more than 18 months but no chance it happens soon. Bellew-Fry is believeable but DeGale-Smith will probably have to wait too.

 

I thought Bellew has said that he wouldnt fight Fry because they're good mates? Maybe I dreamt that.

For me, if it happened right now;

Smith
Fry
Price

If it happened in a year or so then I think only the last one would have the same result.

 

Yeah, some time away from Price-Fury I think.

 

bollocks though degale and bellew could win em in 6 months. fury and price would be interesting.
