Re: WW3 Manchester October 10th RBR
Smith is patient and boxes from a solid base, I like to watch him box - he is by the numbers but is strong and correct.

Re: WW3 Manchester October 10th RBR
WOW what a fight and massive ballz to keep going from Thomspon but Smith is a effing bull,i loved that,to and fro,the shift in the tide,boxer vs brawler,great fight and massive bombs thrrew
Smith started slow and Thompson was boxing his ears off at times as well as outfighting Liam but you always felt Smith was gonna catch up with him,a bit like Louis-Conn 1,more than once i thought Thompson was about to go down but he didint and came firing back but you just knew Liam wasnt gonna let him hear the final bell and that right hand was brutal
Liam is gonna struggle at world level against boxer types but his relentless pursuit will help pull some wins out the bag
Well done Liam

Yes Andrade was stripped because he didn't fight for so long as loads of fights fell through inc Liam Smith .LancashireLoyal wrote:is that the same belt that Brian Rose fought Andrade for?
Andrade fights again next week and wants it back.

Re: WW3 Manchester October 10th RBR
More of a Gallagher/MGM decision according to Gallagher himself, Smith went along with them as the money wasn't great, they didn't feel he was ready to make that big a step up and fight Andrade.handsofstone wrote:Wasnt it Liam who refused the Andrade fight?Naandrew wrote:Yes Andrade was stripped because he didn't fight for so long as loads of fights fell through inc Liam Smith .LancashireLoyal wrote:is that the same belt that Brian Rose fought Andrade for?

Was Gallagher he said himself in an IFl interview that Liam wasn't ready due to the opposition he had been in with was about 6 months ago I reckon.handsofstone wrote:Wasnt it Liam who refused the Andrade fight?Naandrew wrote:Yes Andrade was stripped because he didn't fight for so long as loads of fights fell through inc Liam Smith .LancashireLoyal wrote:is that the same belt that Brian Rose fought Andrade for?

Re: WW3 Manchester October 10th RBR
Andrade might aswell travel better than not getting a fight. If he cant sell tickets then he will have to travel!
Re: WW3 Manchester October 10th RBR
Will the WBO put him forward as mandatory? More likely that a beatable Top Rank fighter gets it or someone else Smith won't be troubled too much by. Only way I see Andrade being mandatory is if Smith defects to Hearn.digzee wrote:Andrade will have to travel for the short end of the purse so will he want to?hitman_hatton1 wrote:andrade still boxes smith's head off.ThereByTheGrace wrote:Fast car Eddie must be fuming!

Always thought the OTHER Magdaleno was the better fighter, but this one is getting a second world title shot before his brother's had his first

Yeh he should have to work is way back to become mandatory, it could be a year before the fight gets made so plenty of time for Beefy to get some defences in

Flanagan won that incredible Lightweight tournament with Anthony Crolla, Gary Sykes and Derry Mathews in it. God I would have loved to have seen that!
