    Kinda wish he won having heard him say he spent 10 months spent getting down in weight only to get eliminated in his first fight. Really nice post fight interview too. Sound bloke. Decent boxer . Skål

    Joe Gallagher being the common denominator.

    R1 10-9 Smith close
    R2 10-9 Smith
    R3 10-9 Smith
    R4 10-9 Smith
    R5 10-9 Skoglund
    R6 10-9 Skoglund close
    R7 10-9 Skoglund close
    R8 10-9 Smith

    R10 10-9 Skoglund
    R11 10-8 Smith
    R12 10-9 Smith
    116-111 Smith

    Just when Skoglund was putting it together with a nice rhythm with his jab Smith would turn it around then was able to hurt and drop Skoglund. Competitive fight

    He has to leave Joe Gallagher in order for that to happen. ;)

    ] Cant say I've heard much of his commentating but i'm sure he cant be as annoying and exhausting as that pile of shoyte I've just put myself through.

    He was the expert commentator with Max Kellerman and Bob Papa back around and through 2008-2010 for HBO Boxing After Dark. There are plenty of fights he "called" on Youtube, he was ****ing dreadful. I mean flatout awful :vomiton:

    I think Skoglund vs Chudinov would make for a great match up. Looking forward to seeing him back in the ring.

    Yer maybe so but Listening to that guy tonight non stop chuntering for 12 rounds was painful listening, this guy just doesn't let the fight breath and he is commentating like he is on the Radio. This was possibly the worst commentary i've ever heard in 40 years of watching Boxing.

    I dont know how good is Yarde since he's been fighting bums so far, but Warren will soon provoque a disgrace, he is making some awful mismatches and as you said Yarde isnt learning anything

    Agree.
    CW division is as hot as ever, can't remember so many talented guys there at the same time.

    SMW is in bad state compared to CW. If completely shot Arthur Abraham and c-level Tyron Zeuge are at top-10...
    JCC jr and Daniel Geale at top-20. Well, the division is wide-open, lacks quality fighters.

    Yes CW is a deep as an ocean packed with really good fighters and big punchers, SMW doesn't impress me at all at the moment. The SMW tournament is very weak IMO.
