    Happens to the best of us. I’ve resorted to now setting an alarm for the main event.

    I'm the same, struggle to stay up. I just put it on and nod off hoping I wake up at the right time. Luckily I woke up in round 1

    Defo,Callum Johnson and others as well, they're all worried though that if they're beaten by British rival there's no world title push in view

    He knew his boxing and provided great humour on here.

    One of the good guys and sadly missed.

    I enjoyed their posts too. A real shame that DramaGrass got him banned.

    Like many, no idea.

    They just end up with claret one day and never seen again.

    Yes Beterbiev really coped well with the shorter reach.

    Smith gave a better account of himself than the Canelo fight. No shame in losing to the better man if you give it a go

    I was very stupid haha.

    Before I get roasted, I wasn’t saying I thought he’d win because he is great. I have said a lot on here, he is achieving what he does due to hollow bones. I thought I’d seen enough in Beterbiev to think Smith could hurt and capitalise though. Credit to him, he is a machine.

    My stick wouldn’t come on until back end of round 5 so I only saw the end anyway!

    Beterbiev reminds me a bit of Foreman in the fact his punches are the short clubbing thudding hurtful ones that do a lot of damage.
