Good scrap. Capable, evenly matched fighters who never let up. A promising future for the Liverpool beanpole Smith who really throws himself into those body shots.
He’s definitely a fine body puncher. Can you imagine a fight between him & Gilberto Ramirez? It would be body punching galore.
Abrahams gonna sit down on his face with those power shots tho
I believe that the fight was a bit closer than the final result. An exceptionally good fight to watch, apart from the punching you could see the thought processes of both fighters. It is pity ( And luck for Smith) that Rebrasse does not own a heavy punch.
very nice fight!! Rebrasse is a really tough boxer but Smith was excellent. Now I want to see him in a world title fight
A really good fight with both contenders showing excellent boxing skills. Callum has a very good jab that he used during the full fight. His body punches mainly to the liver were excellent and he is capable to combine very well head and body punches without excitation. The French has a very good defense, his guard was always up and he is taught, resilient and put a big pressure during the whole fight in spite of receiving several power punches from Callum.
It was a fight very good to calibrate the Callum’s boxing capabilities and prepare him for future and taught fights in view of fighting for the title.
