Smith landing here and there certainly not doing bad in terms of shots landed but Bert has snapped his head back heavily with a few jabs and when you can do that to someone it’s a good sign.

likeing this from smith. bit of head bit of body. probably not winning rounds but making the older fighter work and easing into it.

Beterbiev is so freakin' strong. Smith is beginning to look like he really doesn't want to feel the power any longer.

Yeah to me this looks similar to the Yarde fight in some ways. Looks like the Brit is having enough success to be hopeful but look at the state of Callum’s face already.
Never seen him slightly marked up before I don’t think.

hm....cal taking a beat of a pounding in the third. bert is really precise tonight and not throwing wide shots like he did at times vs yarde. extra composed

smith semi lucky not to be stopped there. went crazy long without swinging there...
Did think callum landed a double left hook that slightly stiffened beter bs legs. providing some hope... if true.

Smith now targeting the body a lot. Seems to still have his power as he just landed one of those left hooks and it jerked Bertebievs head.
