Will the Smith brothers crawl back to the primordial soup they came from?

    Fair play to the smiths no real excuses for saturday night. Could have blamed it on the arm or the weight...but mostly just gave canelo his credit.

    Great achievement four brothers fighting at that level. Decent guys overall in my book. My only problem and its probably more gallaghers doing...is their almost trying to sneak their way around boxing. As in their hand picking guys to get to the big fights or big money. Then as a result failing way short in the big ones.

    I think its just gallaghers personality more than anything else...hes a worrier at heart. Too scared to put his guys in 50/50 fights unless the moneys great. Even when he does take them he mostly approaches them with a negative mindset. Was so careful his guys went on something like a 70 fight win streak.

    In the end its hard to fully get behind these kind of fighters. Its pretty smart tbf...but you cant really have it both ways. Gallaghers almost not giving them the chance to get massive support because of it.

    I've been away from liverpool for years mate and don't claim to know them well at all. But can only say what I saw growing up into early twenties hanging about same circles/area as Paul was sound when we were young used to avoid trouble etc when he could and just into his boxing, and the others seemed the same. As will be the same for all inner cities there were a lot of bullies ans arseholes about! But he werent one of them as far as i could see, always sound with everyone. Same with the other 3. Like I say don't know every scrap or situation etc they may have been in, but if they'd have been acting really bad like that would come out. Maybe someone else cam shed more light on that kind of thing if true.

    Tbh think you get a lot of people who are bad gossips and exaggerate every little transgression. For a family of four boxing brothers they haven't threw there weight around at all as far as I can see. They're just 4 regular lads who happen to box.

    As for the original post, odd

    Outside the Queensbury rules, the drab 4 nowhere in the rankings in the City of Liverpool.

    Callum "the plank" smith will retire after a big fight with maybe BJS or a easy champion at 175. He won't be fighting more than 3 fights.
    He is a multi millionaire after the super6 and canelo fight.
