That'd be like 242 pounds wouldn't it?
252. 3lbs short of peak Steve Austin

Actions heating up in Round 3. Smith keeps getting them right hands through.

30-26 Smith

Hard to imagine a weight cut like that hasn't weakened him, he hasn't shown it so far though.

I’m so glad Adam Smith told me that Dawson is wearing grey boots….

I might be the only guy on here that doesn't hate Adam Smith. I mean....I don't like him :lol:

But he doesn't bother me that much compared to you fellas.

Aww Steve, your probably not going to make it to the main event with the sound on ... :verysad:
Already got it turned right down. Wish I could find a version in Chinese French, or something :lol:

Ah he just never shuts up. Has to fill every single second of airtime with utter bullshit in that rasping, overenthusiastic storm of sentences.

Smith won all of the first 5 rounds I thought, Dawson may have edged the 6th by coming on good at the end. It was another close round though.

I thought Smith took the 7th, but the steam is noticeably coming off his punches. He still landed more than Dawson though. So it's his round.

Dawson needs a KO to win in my view.

Yeah it's one of those fights that is more competitive than the scoring might suggest. Smith is winning a lot of the rounds, but he's having to work hard for all of 'em.

I noted that the steam had started to come off of Smith's punches, but it looks like you could say the same for Dawson at this point. They're definitely both feeling the pace in there, but Smith continues to get his punches through with more consistency.

I got Smith 98-91 I don't know wtf the comms are thinking bigging up Dawson - he's rubbish.

He won a couple of rounds when Smith rested a bit and got complacent is all.

I got it 9 rounds to 1 for Mitchell Smith. I don't know what the hell they're talking about in thinking it could be debatable on the cards.

It would be ludicrous to give Dawson more than 3 rounds max which would still have Smith the clear winner.
