Waste of every ones time. Totally predictable .

Did Eddie just say he's deserved his world title opportunities?!

I'm almost tempted to sign up to Twitter to tell him he was shite.

He's WOOOOORLD level.

The smith brothers are the king of the 6 rounders. Moore's commentary is utterly nauseating.

Stephen Smith deserves another world title fight? Based on what? FFS stop it!

Based on the fact his surname is Smith!!!

Give me 4 months to get to Smiths weight and I'd beat him, and the last person I knocked out was in a kebab shop in Malia back in 1992..(great punch though)

In 35 years of following boxing I may have seen a worse fighter than Stephen Smith's 'opponent' but right now I can't think of one. Now I may be slightly pished but WTF?!

The fat waste of space ducked Fielding and ducked Martin Murray because he will only fight for world titles.

As for getting these opportunities it's the sport of boxing to blame. He knew that if he fought at any weight against Eastern European nobodies he would get another chance at a "world" title.

The issue is he legitimately thinks he is world class. Probably still does. He got smashed to bits by Abraham in the rematch but was adamant he deserved another chance despite not having a win above British level in his career and not having a good win for 4 years.

Easy an Argie who fought Kevin Satchell and Jamie Conlan hands down the worst I have seen.

Davis,Lomachenko and Berchelt will annihilate him.

Corrales from what I have seen would school him easy

Miura would knock his head of his shoulders.

I'm confused by the whole obsession to get title shots for the Smiths. Are they particularly popular, and does that explain the drive to get them big fights? Paul's got that commentary gig too.....

There seems to have been the least push for the one who looks (to me at least) by far the most promising.

Thing is if he went in there and won against a Jorge Lara, Kenichi Ogawa, Edner Cherry, Masayuki Ito, Jhonny Gonzalez, Miguel Roman or Robinson Castellanos then started talking about world title fights no one would have a problem, but his last win of real note was back in September 2015, against Devis Boschiero in a career best performance IMO. Since then he's had 2 world title fights and lost them both. Get another win at that type of level then start talking

Sosa was not world champion don't forget.

I had Zeuge winning an awful dreadful dull contest 120-108, thought the last round knockdown for Smith was wrong but apart from that it was hard to pick any positives, I don't mind Smith too much, I knew this wasn't a title fight so treated it like so, as for Smith he was pale in comparison from the 1st Abraham fight, he barely threw a shot all night, Zeuge was poor but done enough to win every round, when Smith did burst into action late on Zeuge had no problem slugging, problem was when Smith went back into a shell, Zeuge just picked away

Shite fight, Smith will know he needs to hang them up. he cant pull the trigger anymore and that was his only hope

Dreadful non-event of a fight tonight. We all predicted it though, I had it 119-109, gave Smith one round, think it was the 3rd when he actually had a good spell. Zeuge did what he did, which was just outbox Smith and he was a level above Smith the majority of the fight. Smith is just slow, painfully slow, never has been fast but with the years he's got worse.

Here's to the next Paul Smith world title shot next year....

Anthony Fowler's been on the devil's dust if he thinks that's true!

I'll be honest I thought this might be competive going in with Zeuge outpointing Smith and even though Smigga was poor, Zeuge was less impressive, he has an opponent who brought nothing and couldn't land any significant , he showed at times when Smith got adventourous late on that he could stub him out, I'm disappointed that he bored his way to a win, Zeuge's been getting shown over here from when he first turned pro, always exciting and always threw shots with bad intentions, he's tidied himself up a bit but needs to learn how to deal with opponents and not carry them

Zeuge isn't good at all. George Groves would smash him. Callum Smith would beat him too and I don't rate Callum as high as other people do.
