His first title defense was a fourth-round stoppage of Jaime Cox in the opening round of the WBSS, followed this past Feb. with his aforementioned win over Eubank (26-1). In addition to Chudinov, Kar Ka. 1 -tournament seeded Groves has defeated world champions Glen Johnson da kuma James DeGale, “It has been a long preparation for the fight. I am fit, I am healthy, I have put in the work.
“This will be the toughest test yet in the tournament, but I am boxing better than ever, and I don’t see Callum posing a threat, I expect another comfortable win. We are preparing for the very best Smith possible. We know what to do and I am capable of it, I just need to get it done.”
Smith (24-0, 17 Kos), 28, won a 12-round unanimous decision from previously undefeated Erik Sjoglund (26-0) in the WBSS opening round.
