    He kind of reminded of me a young Klitschko towering over Groves in his last fight. Anyone know whos he's fighting next?

    He became a champion and started fighting a lot less.

    Relax. His only claim to fame is beating whats left of the vet George Groves, he's hasn't done anything. Mundo vs Zurdo needs to happen.

    Also, he should call for his mandatory challenge to Dirrell for the WBC title. If The Dog has anymore bite left he doesn't need Haymon to baby step him through some British slapper. Michiganders don't need protection, people need protection from us.

    I don’t think we can expect much from a TBA on June 1st. It’s clear that it will be a first time easy defence.

    It’s a TBA one month away...it’s not looking good

    a HW groves would have koed Wladdie, bad comparison.

    More like Mark Breland over Lloyd Honeyghan.

    Smith has decent fundamentals and is a very good finisher.

    Seems a but slow at times but the guy has talent

    Smith would destroy him, Dirrell's heart isn't in it

    Zurdo has vacated, so that fight might not happen at 168. Interesting if both move up tho

    Dirrels are weak, proven many times before, more so andre then anthony. Smith smacks up Anthony dirrell, they are extremely overated fighters.

    Pretty sure he knows that and was just being sarcastic.
    Andre "KO me and you get DQ'd" Dirrell has already quit boxing, and his brother Anthony "All bark, no bite" Dirrell hasn't shown anything lately that would indicate he would have much of a chance against Smith.
