I've got it 118-110 Billam-Smith but could be a round or 2 closer, Bregeon a tough nut to crack, decent jab when he used it wasn't looking to hold, the ref was a bit lenient with him, he was sneaky with the right hand as well, Billam-Smith struggled to find the distance, he landed the better shots and the harder punches especially to the body, that was what won the scrappy rounds for me, Bregeon tired down the stretch and Billam-Smith began to get to him and finally looked like maybe getting the KO, Bregeon solid though

Eddie should keep the frenchie's number, what a good 12 round step up opponent for prospects

Good engine and not too much power. Mind you, I could probably say the same for CBS
Didn't make for an exciting fight with all his holding but was one tough bastard .
No but a durable soft hitter is invaluable for prospects. Hard to find one that can do it for 12 strong all the way.

Billam Smith seems to have hit a wall with his progress, lacks head movement and he looks shattered but isn't. Kind of weird how that is.
He started off first couple of rounds with improved head movement but reverted to type and went back to zero , his footwork is more of a worry for me , plodding forward , relying on his strength .
He has that tired look but actually has a good engine and don't see stamina an issue .

Zero chance Chriss Billam-smith is ready for world levle, but nothing wrong with that, Euro is perfect for him right now.
Richard Riakporhe, Then Massy, then Fabio Turchi, Then Macathy. try get that done next year, If he gets through that massssive If, its world title time. by then okolie and breidis should have moved up, and then its go time for world titles, ready or not.

Harper doesn’t look at the races. Very slow and lacking strength.

They seem to have a simmular enough ability to box. But Baumgardner looks wayyyyy more athletic and way stronger. Harper will need to tactic her way throgh this.

Jesus thank god the ref saw that. She was definitely out.
I ended up betting £50 on a Baumgartner win by stoppage after round 1.

The American lady looked really good in fairness. I’d like to see Shannon Courtney step up and fight her.
