    Golovkin out boxes him to a wide UD

    I think even this washed up version of Golovkin beats Smith from pillar to post and gets a UD.

    prime Golovkin beat's Smith but now it could be very close. I say Smith via close decision

    GGG UD.

    Excellent fight, Smith is a very good fighter, GGG is slipping but he's still elite but 168 will ask different questions at his current age and Smith is a monster.

    I'm still reserved in my judgment of Smith who I think is very good but pretty basic and I thought he looked nothing special in the two fights prior to GG and he only did to GG what I believe GGG would have done.

    Still an excellent fight.

    If both wins, why not to make the trilogy fight at 168?

    GGG is really suffering making 160 now

    As 3G's my man, it's hard for me to pick him in this matchup. Smith is a good, big strong fighter. And NOT 37 years old either.

    GGG by a UD
    GGG is in the down turn but still has enough to teach Smith a few boxing tricks:boxing1

    Smith is too big and strong for GGG. I got Smith. Won't be shocked if he stopped GGG either.

    If he was going to take it, he would've moved up years ago when fighters were ducking him. Smith would ragdoll him.

    I was very impressed with the way Callum dealt with GG. In the end I fealt GG just realised there was no way he was going to win and thought it better to take the loss whereas a few years ago, he'd have done anything to keep himself in the fight. Callum constantly made GG reset and the constant feinting unsettled GG almost from the get go.

    Given the huge size advantage and GGG's obvious steady decline, I see this as a 50/50 fight. Callum upped his game considerably for GG and would do so again for GGG. God I hope this fight gets made.

    Ffs GGG isn't taking this fight.

    This is low financial reward, and he has proven he is all about the $$$

    Smith will decapitate him
