Pretty lousy looking card tonight but you never know. There is no depth to it though. I imagine more time then usual will be filled with analysis of tomorrow night's big event.
In the main event is upstart Kevin Martin whom I have never seen. So that's that. I'll be looking for an American who might have a shot at the title. We saw Chazz on Wednesday, Estrada before that and going back a little bit saw Travis Walker this year too. We'll see where Martin fits among them.
Across the ring is Terry Smith. About a year ago, it seemed everything was going right for Smith. He was coming off an exciting victory over Kelvin Davis and poised to make a final run at the heavyweight division. But then he ran into the jabs and right hands of Rob Calloway who reignited his career with a shocking win from the underdog role. Smith was seemingly shocked as he was outjabbed and hit consistently with straight shots as he lost to the smaller man. Since that loss he has turned in a decision loss to none other then Robert Hawkins.
Now he appears to be not a gatekeeper but rather a stepping stone for the younger Martin. While I haven't seen him in action, Martin only has 6 KO's in his 18 wins so it looks like we're in for a night of the always exciting 10 round heavyweight decision.
