    I've got the wee man at football training so hopefully it runs even later than planned.

    Howard foster in charge so an early stoppage is on the cards

    Bizarre seeing this fight so early on a card with no atmosphere

    Buatsi seems to have the snappier jab in that opener, Smith seems to be pushing his

    that said smith landed some lovely hooks to head and body

    Smith is ridiculously overrated and will get beat here. Wouldn't be surprised to see him stopped.

    This is a cracking fight so far

    deserves to be more than 12 people in the audience watching it

    Possibly the money makes up for lack of atmosphere. These guys are fighting for 7 figures and the winner is almost guaranteed another massive payday. Would imagine Turki is dishing out premium gifts too. Pure prize fighting.
