(L​-R) – Callum Smith & Erik Skoglund

Smith (22-0, 17 KOs), fighting at home in Liverpool, is rated No. 8 by The Ring magazine. He is a former WBC Silver and European super middleweight champion who is a rising star.

“A ring is a ring no matter where it is, but course, I’m happy to be fighting in Liverpool,” Smith admitted. “This is my home and this is where all my best performances as a professional have been. I like fighting in Liverpool, and with the crowd behind me, I will have an added advantage.

“There are no easy fights in this tournament. It’s the best fighting the best, but I believe I made the right decision (choosing Skoglund) ໃນ Monte Carlo (at the WBSS Draft Gala). That’s not to say Skoglund is not a good fighter. I think he is a very good fighter. His record speaks for itself, but I think stylistically, he was the right choice for me.

“It’ll be a tough test. ໃນ​ເຈ້ຍ, Skoglund is probably the best fighter I’ve ever faced, and I will need to be at my best to beat him. But every time I’ve been up against it in my career, and every time there’s been that fear factor, it’s brought out the best in me and I’m hoping for the sameວັນ​ເສົາ.”

Skoglund (26-0, 12 KOs) was ranked by all four major sanctioning bodies as a light heavyweight before moving down in weight to compete in the WBSS as a super middleweight. The 26-year-old Swede has been the IBO, WBA International and European champion.

“This is a huge opportunity for me to prove myself at the highest level,” Skoglund said. “Callum Smith is a top-level fighter and one of the tournament favorites. This is what the World Boxing Super Series is all about – ການ​ຕໍ່​ສູ້​ທີ່​ດີ​ທີ່​ສຸດ​ທີ່​ດີ​ທີ່​ສຸດ! That’s why I entered and that is why I’m really looking forward to this fight.

“ສໍາ​ລັບ​ຂ້າ​ພະ​ເຈົ້າ, it’s no problem fighting in Liverpool. ແນ່​ນອນ, I am always thankful for the opportunity to fight in front of my fans in Sweden, but I’m happy not having that pressure on my shoulders for this fight and I will enjoy being the underdog for once.”

The inaugural season of the World Boxing Super Series features two weight classes (ຄຸຍ & middleweight super), 16 fighters, and a total of 14 main events.
