    Hilarious listening to Jim Watt talking about Smiths win as if he was Sugar Ray Leonard himself,to be fair decent win for Smith,one thing is for certain he will give a good account of himself against Abraham

    Smith won and looked well but the guy he was fighting looked really poor,Jim Watt was wanking all over Smiths performance as if Smith had destroyed a world class boxer..

    Smith is a good pro but no more than European level at best, sky's usual over the top praise of a fighter they want to push on us

    God it will be so funny to see what excuse Sky come up with when Smith is destroyed inside 5 rounds by Abraham, probably will say Abraham is p4p level!

    I didn't think they over egged it that much.

    Just said that he did a good job on the fella which he did.

    They didn't start screaming how world class he was or how world class the opponent was.

    Infact they put him into perspective by saying he was always going to struggle in a era where Froch, Groves and Degale were around.
