Don't think the continuous smacking from the corner man is necessary tbh

Smyle has turned up the aggression just enough to take control of the last round and now the beginning of this round. Clarke is still very game though and by no means is he out of it. Clarke lands a nice right hand and Smyle responds with pressure. Good work from both men in this round. Very slight edge to Smyle based on punch volume and aggression.
