Bellew, C.Smith, P.Smith, S.Smith, Price, Murray, Fielding vs. L.Smith, Farrag and Dickens.
I'm guessing casual scouse boxing fans will be heading to goodison on june 4th. Might be best for W@rren to change dates...
S. Smith won't be on it. Doubt Pricey either, he gets flashbacks fighting in Liverpool.
Big Pricey has seen more canvas than Banksy! I heard there is a few companies fighting over sponsoring him. They're going to put their company logo on the soles of his boots.

I think they are going to find it very hard to secure a credible and available (overseas) fighter from the WBO rankings with the budget they've likely got to play with. Smith would surely knock back the likes of Williams and Patterson as a first defence. Too dangerous for the likely reward.

Sirimongkol would likely be the cheapest overseas option...sell him as a 2 weight former champion with an incredible run of wins.. leave Bunce to gaggle on about his arrest and gay pictures..

In the 80s they'd have gone for him, 88-2, 2 weight world champion, great sell for them. Today with records so easily available on the internet it only takes 2 minutes for people to look him up and see that his world titles came over a decade ago at bantamweight and super featherweight and that that he's fought nobodies in Thailand for the last decade, then completely dismiss any credibility he has as a challenger.

Anything other than a Smith KO would really surprise me. Pishy defence!

I just had an email off B0xnati0n, apparently I completed some sort of viewer survey a while back and have won 2 free tickets to this. Bit of a trek for me to get to, but a free show is a free show.

As has already been said an absolute joke of a defence and a lot worse than Thompson and probably Kelly as well, both they guys had their moments before losing but Radosevic's record is thin to say the least,stopped in 4 by Sturm and a UD win over Lauri :-?

I like Liam i think he's a good fighter,he reminds me of Canelo without the CV or fanbase,stylistically though he has the tough,immovable look about him,he can be outboxed for a bit then usually finds a KO,works the body well and is very strong,he's one of those fighters like Alvarez who looks incapable of being KO'd

Its a shame he's been fighting guys like Kelly Jr and Radosevic because i know for a fact if he was to be put in with a steller name he wouldnt shy away like say a Rose or Purdy,Smith would take the fight to anyone i feel,he looks a stubborn SOB

Next fight maybe eh :roll:

Doesn't sell a ticket though, so unless he's chief support of something like Tyson V Klitchko, how do they find the money for a 'name' ?

Under two thousand is my guess. They won't have shifted more than a few dozen tickets over the past three weeks thanks to all the attention falling on the goodison show.

Had to go through the entire thread to the last page before people were commenting on the pedrasovic fight. I changing thread titles wastes time ffs just start a new thread for a new topic when the actual fight gets announced

way more than 30 seconds.

I don't know why you change the titles. Honestly, is it just to keep "your" thread one the first page? Keeping your name on the front page? It's a forum, threads are meant to be made when new information comes in, not titles changed.

Can anyone tell me who are the mods here? I'd like to try to get this thread title change function disabled. Wastes too much time. Pointless clicking on this guys threads when I don't know when the actual discussion on the thread subject starts
