Paul Smith Vs Paul David

[hurlock]

paul's due a good performance, hopefully from doing 24rds in his last two fight's have eased him up a bit & we will see a more polished smith on the night.

david is a fit & tough guy i dont expect him to get blown away & i dont expect smith to go in gun's blazing.

Paul will break David in two, Paul is better in every single department!! I expect a stoppage and Paul to look good... As for ticket sales Paul is top seller...

he seems to pack out stadiums pretty easily, he needs to show some class in this fight, his last 2 performances wern't great but he got the wins regardless. Paul David is not a man that makes a fighter look good, i expect it too be close inb the first half of the fight then smith to take over and stop him late.

david is decent ive seen a few of his fights on the froch undercard and he is alot better than his record

I think Paul David can win this. Smith should be a Middleweight and David is a huge Super Middle. Smith hasn't got the style to beat a fighter that much bigger/stronger than him. add to the David is also quite tricky.

Bomber, you planning on fighting Danny McIntosh anytime soon?

Would love to, The ball is firmly in his court...

[Bomber 1]

bomber i think david's 'gameplan' will make that very difficult, he'll be moving fiddling and holding for all he's worth IMO

I think he'll try to that too but he'll get nailed everytime he trys it, Paul is a clever fighter far cleverer than people actually give him credit for, I think David will be in for a nasty shock...

I agree to be honest but its naturally the next step to take, before moving on for the european which i presume will be vacated by Clev

it will be once his title shot is guarenteed

[SweetLikeSugar]

Bomber, do you think you'll be fighting on the undercard or does it depend how you get on on Friday?

[15829]

after the last 2 local derby fights there will be alot less pressure on smith which i think will allow him to box with more freedom, think smith wins late on with the ingles pulling david out, cant wait for this

[Smigga]

I think Paul David can win this. Smith should be a Middleweight and David is a huge Super Middle. Smith hasn't got the style to beat a fighter that much bigger/stronger than him. add to the David is also quite tricky.

Dodson is/was the biggest super middle in the country. He certainly wasn't stronger than me. As for the tricky, we'll see won't we.
You're never in a million years going to respect, appreciate or like what I do - Anyone who reads your sh*te on that sh*thole esb will see that.

I actually think this is a fairly decent fight myself,Paul david whilst he isnt an elite level fighter by any stretch of the imagination,he is actually a pretty decent boxer!Quite slick and a nice jab,etc.Its definietly in my opinion a harder fight for smigga than Darren mcdermott was (no offense intended) What about you Paul?Do you think this will be a harder job for you than Mcdermott would of been?I know Mcdermott packs more power that David but David is the better technician i think from the fights ive seen of him.

Reading this thread reminds me of why I rarely post on any forum any more, and it reaffirmed to me that rob talks shite most of the time

I hope we get to see what Smigga can do, but as people have said, David has the ability to turn fights ugly.

A few people like to write Smith off, and believe he's found his level at British, but I truly believe he can go much further.

As a fan, it can be frustrating to watch Smith because he really can box. Some of the stuff he does is beautiful, it's just we don't always get it for a full fight. Some of his shots are lovely and one day, I think we'll get to see a Smigga masterclass where everything goes right on the night and he shows what he can definitely do.

There is definitely another couple of gears to Smigga, and when you consider he's already a British champ, he could definitely win a version of the World.

I think the fight is a harder one than the Darren McDermott match - however what I simply cannot understand about all this is we all agree Smigga is a good fighter - some say world class - I have always disagreed solely as a result of Smigga not proving himself against any viable world class opposition.

I respect Smigga is a good fighter - but to go straight from a domestic class showdown to world level is a tadge worrying.

I wouldnt mind seeing Smigga against Karoly Balzsay,Was the WBO champion till he lost the belt to steiglitz but was outboxing him until he got stopped apparantly.Would be a good test I think.

[hurlock]

the way young ingle was talking to david in the corner in his last fight, told me he aint the most confident when he's in the ring.

i dont know if this will be the equivilant of moore v facey, but could be possibly if smith use's his pedigree & takes his time setting his punche's up as he does get a bit smash & grab at times imo.

& how smigga can come on here & read stuff on himself i dont know??...doe's it give you fuel smigga??

No it doesn't. I don't get in the ring thinking about proving boxrec doubters wrong. ANY doubters for that matter. Negative motivation is no good - tried that in the past it got me nowhere.
I know what I can do, people around me do, it's just putting it all together at the right time, right place, right opponent and right world title hopefully, that will then convince the doubters that!
