At this stage, with the evidence provided,I would suggest that Smith will be as good as the man who knocked out George Groves in front of 80,000 people.... Can't remember his name right now

My immediate reaction was to assume everyones favourite commentator was talking pish,so i googled it.
And found this thread. No evidence of a TMNT called anything like callumundo

Callum-fckin-undo? There was no such turtle when I watched it 25 years ago. Maybe he's a new one they added I have no interest in knowing really it sounds rather strange.watsupdoc87 wrote:there was no callumundo, there was leonardo my favourite and donatello, michaelangelo and raphaelpalooka wrote:It's in Boxing News this week, he was really into teenage mutant ninja turtle as a kid and one of them was called Callumundo (apparently).reggaereggae wrote:He seems very decent and a great boxer.

A quote from an interview with the Liverpool Echo last year explains all:ShadrachSimmo wrote:Callum-fckin-undo? There was no such turtle when I watched it 25 years ago.

“The truth is, it came from my dad, because when I was a kid I was into the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and I had the backpack that looked like a shell, all that.
“The Turtles were called things like Michaelangelo, Leonardo and Donatello – so my dad started calling me Callumundo and it just stuck.”
