Maybe God is helping American boxer Joe Smith Jr., although in today's professional boxing light heavyweight class, Joe Smith Jr. is recognized as a weakness among several current world boxing champions. But as it stands, Joe Smith Jr.'s first WBO World Champion Title Defense battle has been greatly reduced, and if there is no accident, in this weekend's WBO Light Heavyweight World Champion Defense Battle, Joe Smith Jr. will easily win and expand his career winning streak to four games.
Why did I make such a prediction? Let's analyze the reasons together.
One. Replace the weak generals in battle
Originally scheduled for this weekend's WBO Light Heavyweight World Champion Defending Title, Joe Smith Jr. is played against British star Callum Johnson, a British boxer with a career record of 20 wins and 1 loss, 14 KO opponents, and is an experienced boxer with strong strength. Previously, Callum Johnson's only defeat was the loss to today's light heavyweight overlord Artur Beitbiyev, and the match against Joe Smith Jr. will be the second time in his career to challenge for the World Boxing Title.
It can be said that if Joe Smith Jr. really plays against Callum Johnson, the outcome is really unpredictable. But earlier this week, Callum Johnson was unexpectedly found to have contracted COVID-19 during a pre-match checkup and had to withdraw from the game and be hospitalized for treatment.
Although Callum Johnson's tournament promoter, Frank Warren, considered the opportunity to challenge the World Boxing Title a rare opportunity and proposed to postpone the tournament, the proposal was not agreed to by Joe Smith Jr.'s team. In the end, American boxer Steve Gubrad was called in to save the game, and substitute Callum Johnson came to fight the world boxing battle.
Although Steve Gefrad's career record is 18 wins and 2 losses, he is not on par with Callum Johnson, who is currently in the top twenty in the world, in terms of experience and quality of previous games.
Two. No time to prepare
In a normal world boxing battle, boxers will prepare for the training camp by one and a half months to two months in advance. During this time, both sides will formulate tactics according to each other's technical characteristics, and then invite boxers with similar skills to the other side to practice as sparring for actual combat training.
However, this time, there were only four days left for American boxer Steve Gebrad to prepare for the battle, and during these four days, Steve Gefrad had to dedicate a day to weight reduction. So, not to mention letting Steve Gefrad conduct systematic and targeted combat training, I don't even think Steve Gefrad has time to analyze Joe Smith Jr.'s previous game videos in detail.
Three. There is a huge gap in competition experience
Although the two boxers differ by only 1 year in age (Joe Smith Jr. is 32 and Steve Gufrad is 31), they are not at all on the same level in terms of competition experience.
In terms of the number of matches, Joe Smith Jr. played a total of 30 professional boxing matches, for a total of 135 rounds. Steve Gerflad, on the other hand, has played only 20 professional boxing matches, for a total of 77 rounds.
In terms of quality, Joe Smith Jr. has played two lightweight World Champion (former World Champion) dimitri Biver (current WBA Light Heavyweight World Champion) and Eder Avarez (former WBO Light Heavyweight World Champion), as well as two former World Champion Challengers. Steve Gefrad has little experience with this, and he hasn't played a three-star or more game even in Boxrec's statistics.
In summary, I think That Steve Gefrader will not pose a threat to Joe Smith Jr. at all in the weekend's game. The tournament ended with Joe Smith Jr. winning and successfully defending his title as World Champion.
Moreover, I believe that if Joe Smith Jr. plays normally, he can beat Steve Gefrad in the fourth or fifth round of his first World Champion defense game by KO(TKO).
