Callum Smith was taken to the hospital after a deep section above the eye during the victory over Joshua Batsi in Saudi Arabia.
The former world champion won a unanimous decision after 12 exhausting rounds on the undisputed defense of the title of lightweight in a demanding ponderous defense Artur Beterbaview against Dmitry Bivol.
Smith struggled with inaction and injuries from the time of losing to Canelo Alvarez in 2020, but he went back after years to overtake the Batsi and return to the competition for the title of world champion.
However, he did not leave the fight unscathed, with a huge racker opening over the right eye in the middle rounds.
This required a hospital travel after the last bell, while Batsi was also taken to routine medical controls as a precaution after maintaining many penalties.
Smith dominated vast parts of the fight, but Buatsi made him act extremely demanding, which showed great determination and granite chin to stay in the competition until the very end.
Ultimately, all three judges nodded Smith from the results of 119-110, 115-113 and 116-112 to end the brilliant night for the 34-year-old.
Speaking after the fight, he said: “I was weaker and I supported me a bit when I saw people who say I finished,” said Smith. Sometimes it was humorous and frustrating.
“I felt that I had to prove that many people were wrong today, but it was not a surprising result for me. It was not a perfect performance. I took a few rounds at the end, my vision was a bit handicapped. “
Certainly it was an thrilling fight, and both boxers leave everything in the ring in the competition, which he posted one way and then the other.
Pundit Sky Sports Jonny Nelson noticed: “What a fight between the two British who really left their heart and soul there. Batsi tried to find the right goal and still had to react.
“Callum did properly, constantly fucking, differ from head to body, but the endurance and experience of both warriors was class, tidy class. The difference between the summit of the bill and the two is huge, but this fight was crazy. “
It will turn out if Smith will chase another fight for the title of world champion after the release of Buatsi’s first defeat of his professional career.
He was detained by Beterbaview in the seventh round last year, but in the near future he could look for a rematch, while Bivol may be another potential opponent, depending on the result of the main event today.
The third option may be an immediate extension of hostlites from Batsi, who would certainly jumped on the chance to multiply their only failure if the opportunity appeared.

From your beginnings as youtuber football to describing yourself as one of the biggest names in the world of sports entertainment, KSI is wearing a lot of eyes. The Londonian – together with his crew “Sidemen” – recently mastered the charity match in the sold out of Wembley, which collected over 4 million pounds for charity.
Some of the other projects of the KSI are Baller League UK-Pioneering six-person football competitions, as well as his commitment to boxing Misfits. The promotion organizes fights between youtubers, social media personalities and other significant celebrities.
KSI – whose real name is Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji – he fought in the Missions event himself and was supposed to return to the ring with Dillon Danis in Manchester this weekend. However, less than two weeks of KSI announced the intention to withdraw, leaving Danis furious.
Both are not strangers from the head, at least outside the ring, and the couple have been involved in the war of words for some time. It was during the alleged social media claim about KSI Danis claimed that his opponent was dating the “venerable onlyfans”.
By publishing at X, he said: “How are you a multomillionaire and your girlfriend got only a fan?” Post did not clearly mention the book by name, but due to the proximity of their planned fight, fans believe that the suggested suggestion concerned the personality of YouTube. It is said that the book is in a relationship, but he wanted to keep his partner’s identity in secret.

Anthony Joshua has three possible opponents for the next fight when Eddie Hearn lifts the lid

Anthony Joshua was set in a queue to fight with three potential opponents for another boxing fight, but Promoter Eddie Hearn insisted on devoting time to consider the decision. The 35-year-old has not entered the ring since the IBF heavyweight defeat with Daniel Dubois in September 2024 in Wembley. Joshua hit the deck in the first, third, fourth and fifth round before he was counted by the judge, leading critics to call for retirement. However, it seems that the former world champion is determined to push another fight on the highest scale.
Joshua misses the possibility of fighting Tyson Fury, but the fight never materialized. Then Fury announced his decision to leave boxing after the second defeat with Oleksandre Usyk. Hearn suggested that Fury would be their first call port if he decided to withdraw from his retirement from boxing. But the promoter assumes that his hopes for such a reversal are unbelievable and maybe instead he will have to look for an alternative opponent.
“In the perfect world, Tyson Fury gets out of the couch and says:” I’m bored. I want to throw an ankle from AJ, “said Hearn Sun. “And this telephone conversation would be the most lovely telephone conversation I had in my career, and it can come, but if so, we have to find an opponent. And he is [Joshua] He must have 100 % physically correct, because this is probably the most vital decision and moment of his career, because this is the last [fights]. “
It seems unlikely that Fury, 37 years ancient, will return to his word, and the next move of Hearna may be the search for a rematch from Dubois. However, the prevailing IBF champion wants to make an appointment with a rematch with Utyk, who defeated him in 2023 via a knockout from the ninth round.
If neither Fury nor Dubois would agree, he would leave Joshua with Agit Kabayel, Joseph Parker and Deontay Wilder. Kabayel is a fleeting WBC handle, and Parker has the title of WBO. In the face of his long -time rival, Wilder can represent the tempting option for AJ, but the American has just confirmed the fight against Tyrell Herndon in June – excluding him to be predicted the future.
Supremo Matchroom Hearn is adamant that they did not hurry with the decision and suggested that the identity of the next opponent of Joshua is not as vital as he returns to the ring.
“We are not in a hurry. Another move is so vital for the last chapter, because it is so,” he added.
“We have to do it well, and if we can’t get Dubois or if we can’t get fury, we have to fight someone else. And it can be Parker, it can be cabayel, it can be, I don’t know, wild … no one.”


Deontay Wilder will not retire soon.
Wilder is to fight for the first time since the harmful Fifth round defeat from Zhilei Zhang In June last year, when he will face his countryman Tyrell Herndon in Kansas on June 27 at Charles Koch Arena.
Some thought at the age of 39 and suffered losses, he used to be afraid that the artist with a knockout would call for a career in which he made 10 defense of the world title in heavyweight WBC.
However, the “brown bomber” returns to the action and will want to discover a part of the form in which he collected 42 knockout from 43 duels.
Herndon seems to be a relatively uncomplicated task on paper, and Texans are already suffering from Efe Ajagba and Richard Torrez Jr.

Wilder won only one of the last five competitions, the first round of the demolition of Robert Helenius in October 2022.
The man from Alabama was detained twice by the currently retired Tyson Fury in the trilogy, which will live in memory for a long time, and then was overtaken by Joseph Parker, before his last failure against the mentioned Zhang.
Victory for Wilder can again arouse interest in a duel with the long -term rival Anthony Joshua.
The couple who were associated with the fight since both had world titles in 2018 were close to the sealing of the contract for the meeting in March last year, until the defeat of Wilder with the Parker paid with these plans.

Joshua is currently moved aside due to an injury and was called by YouTuber, which was directed, Jake Paul last week.
For two -time heavyweight master promoter, Eddie Hearn admits that they are playing with him.
“At the moment” AJ is not a world champion, “said Hearn Boxing fans.
“He doesn’t chase uniform fights, unquestionable fights.
“He is looking for the biggest possible fight.

“Would it be against Jake Paul? I don’t know.
“We would do it? Yes, I think he would do it honestly.
“I don’t see the point [in] I am waiting until 2026.
“Jake has no fight. We have no fight.
“If you want to do it, let’s just get to it, but [it would be] quite perilous. “
