The card at Turning Stone Resort & Casino, Verona, New York, USA looks like it will go ahead. Golden Boy Promotions are looking for a replacement. Rey Vargas vs Azat Hovhannisyan is co-headlining. ESPN’s Dan Rafael wrote: “[Golden Boy president Eric] Gomez said Smith’s promoter, Frank Warren, told him that Smith would be unable to fight on the scheduled date due to “some sort of allergic reaction to something.” “Gomez said is working to find a replacement opponent.” WBO Rankings Champion: Sadam Ali 1.

LondonRingRules Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Re: Liam Smith pulls out of Sadam Ali fight --- Vanes has never been KOed and been very competive in his losses, so you may be surprised. He's hungry and that's always the most dangerous kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
