    As long as William doesn't get cut badly again, I expect him to win on points despite tiring towards the end and losing some of the later rounds.

    Williams isn't strong enough imo. He looked superb early doors against a version of Smith that underestimated him. I'm not a big fan of beefy and feel his use of the head was disgusting in the first fight. That being said Williams was all in at the time of the cut and lockett withdrew his man to save the inevitable stoppage

    Im going smith k.o
    Its a funny thing tho. I went to the last fight and was supporting smith if anyone. Then when i got there for some strange reason i ended up cheering williams on.
    I think smith will be a lot more on the ball for this rematch tho

    I dont think lockett withdrew him fearing a stoppage. Williams eyelid was slashed in two nearly. thats a very dangerous cut. Lockett did the right thing. What he did wrong was not call the doctor over.

    So long as Smith doesn't start headbutting again then Williams schools him on points, exactly like he was doing the first time round before the head butting.

    The cut was extremely bad and very dangerous, there's no way any trainer of note would let his man carry on with his eyelid hanging off.

    People seem to be forgeting until the butt even though Williams shape was breaking down and Smith was looking strong he still won the 7th and 8th and 9th was 50/50 before the headbutt.

    Don't believe Williams gassed just Smith was getting stronger from a slow start

    I absolutely agree that the cut was bad and warranted pulling him out. But the referee should of called for the doctor not lockett. We all know what would of happened then. The main thing is we get a quality 50/50 rematch. I just feel Smith will be a different fighter this time around

    Worrying thing is Williams threw his arsenal at Smith and although he sucked a lot of it up he didn't look phased. He actually looked like it was at a level that he enjoyed.. I thought Williams was more powerful than that

    Just shows how powerful canelo is he easily dispatched Smith
