    I think Beterbiev would have been a better matchup for Joe Smith Jr. Bivol will outpoint him easily.

    Great fight.
    I think its kind of bad timing for Smith, but can't look down on him for wanting to get back in the mix.

    War Irish Bomber, and yes Joe is a legit threat and stylistically a dangerous opponent if his jaw holds up.

    Poor Joe Smith is in for a sustained beating.

    Should be a really entertaining one. I like Joe's Cinderella story a lot, but he's in for some rough time. Bivol will outbox him, wear him down and KO around round 8.

    Bivol wins easily, then hopefuly, for his sake he has Canelo lined up at 168, othewise his career is going nowhere on DAZN.

    What makes you think that? Bivol has the tools to make this emberassing for Smith. Outside of a lucky looping shot landing, what game plan could he use to hang with Bivol?

    I'm hearing Callum Smith either at 168 or 175 is the plan

    Smith Jr. is a very live dog here. This is a high risk/low reward fight for Bivol

    Joe has that ole punchers chance, which is usually about 10 % against a better boxer
