    If barker comes through his next euro defence he might get a shot at pirog for the WBO so if it becomes vacant I'd like to see smith vs the winner of M.Murray vs N.blackwell for British, commonwealth and European

    Thing is, only people that rate Smith are his staunchest supporters/family members.

    Anyone neutral seems him for just how below average he is.

    Yeah I remember that. It was a bad decision by the ref but you cant blame him really. Paul did most of the work but Bendall looked a lot more in control and a lot cleaner.

    I think that loss prompted the move to super middle, but smith will be more effective now he is back in his more natural weight class

    The thing is that Paul has had to do a lot of his training himself in the past few years. Its been a lot easier for him to make SMW but now that Gallagher is there pushing him along, motivating him and giving him proper work in the gym his enthusiasm and motivation will rocket and he will make MW. Its been a lonely time in boxing for smigga in the past few years.

    Tony Hill is my hometown fighter, I reckon he's below average.

    Training along side other champions will always help too and there's a fair few in gallaghers gym, and smith still managed to win a British title in them circumstances I'm sure with Gallagher in his corner he can at least win European, good luck to him.

    To be honest im not really a boxing fanatic. I like a few boxers and know of the fighters around them in their division if ya know what I mean. I loved boxing when Calzaghe and Hatton where still going but now im slightly losing my taste for it. Its annoying how fights are made nowadays. It all seems to be about the money. Unless theres a fight that im really interested in I dont really come on here :D
