Another Stateside card this weekend. This was originally set for Feb but had to be rescheduled when the Covid got a hold of Vlasov. Smith is coming off of a brutal tko over Eleider Alvarez and the vacant wbo trinket is up for grabs. A win for Smith here positions the legit big bomber perfectly for a possible all title unification at 175 with another Arum fighter, Artur Beterbiev! I'd pay for that. Vlasov looks to flip the script.
Co main has heavyweight Efe Ajagba taking on 15-4 Brian Howard. Look..I like Ajagba but I don't know what they're doing with these recycling center type match ups for him. He's only 4 yrs in and most young'ish Hvys are guilty of some padding but if ol Efe struggles too much with a guy who's been ko'd at both 190 and 175 well they might want to put Ajagba in a protective bubble. Chance to shine hear for him and up his finishing instincts.
