They live, We sleep
I didn’t realize that it got postponed. I am also picking Smith. I think he gets to Alvarez.
I’ve just never been high on Alvarez. He caught a shot Kovalev but was losing up until then and then got beat easily by a shot Kovalev. Before and after those fights I haven’t been impressed either.
Smith is by no means great, but he has shown that his power is fight changing and I think that Alvarez will quickly fight hesitant and lose because of it.
This really does have fun fight written all over it. I like the pop and pressure from Joe as a fighter and at times Alvarez seems 36 going on 46. But I have to lean towards Alvarez who looked good dissecting an admittingly green Seals last out. Kovalev got him but have to think he'll be the technical boxer this time around vs the onrushing Smith. Then again Smith is an ever present danger from opening to close and still has the massive brass he showed fighting on with a broken jaw a few years ago. I'll change my mind in the morning
Definitely feels like their styles will gel, which will now have the opposite effect and be a shit fight
Think I'm edging towards Alvarez for the victory, possibly by stoppage, but it really wouldn't be a surprise if Smith got him out of there either.
