    Huge from Smith. I think he may have won the fight with that knockdown. Beautiful counter punch for the KD.

    Such a good fight, didn't expect this at all.

    I'll throw it out there now, I'd take Eubank Jr and Groves to beat Smith, Groves by KO and Jr by decision.

    I said Smith wouldn't make it to the finals a few times, Groves all the way.

    Skoglund needs to go for broke here, use something other than the jab.

    Smith is just another Smith clone, who can throw a hook.

    What Skoglund did in the last round, was what he needed to do in rounds 8-10, let Smith off the hook just jabbing and playing it safe.

    I think the KD won it for Smith, very close fight overall and very entertaining.

    Smith by 2 points or a point is fine.
