Wow. Fair play Smith. Man can punch! Left hook to temple countering right hook did the damage.

Smith was winning comfortably prior to the stoppage. He had Groves number.

Didn't expect Groves to quit. He was gutsy. He got caught good though.

I was gone through most of it, but I saw the last few rounds. Looked like Smith was giving him a thorough ass kicking. He definitely was there at the end. Great win for Smith.

This fight was on Friday!?
No one thought to mention that beforehand?
Boxing is the worst run sport that has ever existed.

Smith was excellent. He boxed rationally, he placed the crucial shot well, he developed the success handily.

Excellent finish,
Is it me but was that last punch not highly illegal.
Not going for the controversial angle but surprised no one has mentioned it.

That final assault in the corner was a thing of beauty. Very well timed, and measured attack to close the show. A vicious right driven into the body, uppercuts, sweeping right hands up top...all well timed, and pretty accurate.

Well done to Smith ,they generally get a bad rap the Smith lot , but Callum always comes across really well and well deserves this win .
Groves should probably jack it now after being a great servant to the sport .
