Terry Smith vs Rob Calloway on ESPN2 Tonight

Terry Smith SC Rob Calloway
Tracy Sneed SC Brian Norman
George Tahdooahnippah SC Clifton Blake
Jeri Sitzes SC Ada Velez
Don Jones SC Jim Franklin
William Grover SC Jerod McMillan
Yankton Southern SC Chris Hill

What a pointless main event. You have two opponents with inflated records facing each other where the winner gets nothing. Instead lets see Terry Smith against an Eddie Chambers or a Nipples Arreola. Also, if Calloway really wants to stay at cruiser, he should face BJ Flores or Matt Godfrey. Smith will win tonight in a decent fight that goes to decision, then Calloway will bitch about fighting above his best weight, and no one gained anything. Good job espn, good job.

On a personal note, i'll be up in Maine all weekend, so I won't be here until late Sunday, enjoy this and the big HBO card tomorrow.

The greatest thing about Rob Calloway is his haircut

Teddy was giving this the hard sell Wednesday night, talking about how Calloway, "isn't your typical midwest guy, meaning he's not just someone who's gonna take on soft touches to inflate his record."

Since when does Teddy Atlas carry the company line, he's normally a straight shooter.

Teddy's gotta at least TRY to get someone to tune in. This fight might as well be an exhibition.

it goes to show that fights aren't fought on paper. I can't believe Smith lost the fight.

smith couldn't afford to lose this fight, not at his age and coming off a fairly big win; might have effectively closed his window at getting any sort of big money fight or a position to have a title fight.

just a bad all round loss for him and one more example of why he never got over the hump to be even a fringe contender
