Smith looks spent and left eye is tattered. Vlasov 10th really walking him down here.

Just watching this fight this morning...
3 rounds in, Smith cut and getting tuned up apart from the occasional hit&hppe right overhand.

Re: Joe Smith Jr v Maxim Vlasov 4/10 ESPN
Talk of Smith Jr vs. Beterbiev seems ludicrous.
Six rounds deep, Vlasov seems a well schooled guy, a lot of amateur pedigree/schooling on display, but not a puncher, or even a particularly strong guy.
Smith doesn't really seem to have any solution other than the right hand.

Re: Joe Smith Jr v Maxim Vlasov 4/10 ESPN
Smith Jr had Vlasov hurt in the 7th, catching him with a counter hook over Vlasovs uppercut. He went down to the body which might not have been a bad idea at all.
Big round for Smith Jr.
Commentary a bit ittitating making is sound as though Vlasov is on the way out though. Clearly he's not as he has Smith Jr. on the back foot in the 8th again.

Re: Joe Smith Jr v Maxim Vlasov 4/10 ESPN
Vlasov fresher down the stretch, threw more and hurt Smith Jr in the 9th.
The 10th was all Vlasov, Smith Jr looking tired and just trying to lumber through.
11th
Smith Jr obviously got lit up in the corner, came out very eager. Andre Ward stating he thinks this was his last stand... He's done enough to take this round, maybe hurting Vlasov to the body.
Vlasov hamming up the knock behind the head to grab himself a break.
12th
Smiths eye looked nasty in the corner between rounds.
Vlasov ahead 105 104 on Wards card.
Smith Jr definitely more active early and Vlasov glancing up at the clock, but scoring some cleaner shots.
I actually though Vlasov won the fight.
I thought he did the better work, maybe eight rounds to four...
Maybe that was a bit harsh on Smith, but I didn't see. A whole lot of clean scoring from him.
