    No offense bro but you have already made yourself a target to a few....don’t give people more ammo to shoot you with! Good luck, I’m out

    I disagree that they beat light heavyweights that were better than Smith but that wasn`t my point you are right to mention light heavies because it`s Smith`s size, reach and power that are unusual for his weight and super middleweight making this a decent question Smith is nowhere near as limited as you are saying and neither was Groves, I know therre were middle weights a lot better than Smith but he`s a much bigger guy, he`s bigger than most super middles, the guy looked huge compared to Groves, it`s not a simple answer to say elite middles could beat good light heavyweight champs.

    I live in Manchester, (I know it's not as bad) and things like that happen around here all the time too, if you're too negative to joke then what do you really have?

    I didn't mean to offend. I apologise.
    I live in Britain too. I know how bad it is.
    I was just trying to be lighthearted.
