I think Smith is weight drained at the weight because he fought in spurts and lay on the rope far too much. Whenever Smith raised the pace and threw combinations you could see he was the better fighter and a class above. Unfortunately he did not do it enough and if it was under different circumstances then he would have lost that contest.

Callum Smith should really move up to light heavyweight, but he has the dilemma of waiting for Canelo (or another big fight) when he really should just move up into the next division.
Callum looked drained at the weight he was flat 6.2 12stone that extra 7 lbs would benefit him maybe he could not get up for the fight that performance was pretty poor.!
But we are doing Ryder a disservice not praising his performance sometimes in Boxing we see some shit results that was one.!
