SMITTYOUT

2010-01-18T15:31:00.001-08:00

MOSLEY VS BERTO OFF, Berto who is Haitian obviously distraught over devastation of earthquake in Haiti last week. Does this pave the way for Mosley vs Mayweather? I think so. SMITTYOUT.

2010-01-14T20:55:00.001-08:00

Please help the people of Haiti. Do what you can, a little can be a lot to those struggling for survival. SMITTYOUT

2010-01-13T18:51:00.001-08:00

Very proud and honored by the fact that I will be inducted in June into the Florida Boxing Hall of Fame
SMITTYOUT

2010-01-12T20:32:00.001-08:00

handling of this should say enough. Yes Ari Fleischer who was press secretary to President George W. Bush. Now theres a guy who told the truth. NOT. SMITTYOUT

2010-01-12T20:31:00.001-08:00

Gotta chuckle listening to Mark McGwire in total denial about steroid effects on his career. The fact that he hired Ari Fleischer to help him with his media

2010-01-11T19:00:00.001-08:00

what will be interesting will be if this will have any effect on how boxing goes about its future blood testing for steroids. SMITTYOUT

2010-01-11T18:58:00.001-08:00

Very interesting that following the most talk we have had about possible steroid use in boxing maybe ever, we have today's confession from Mark McGwire

2010-01-11T00:45:00.001-08:00

This is now become more about Bad Blood than Blood testing, I will explain in later today with a Smitty Shoeshine entitled Bad Blood at inthiscornertv.com SMITTYOUT

2010-01-11T00:43:00.001-08:00

Pacquiao vs Clottey March 13 in Dallas, Mayweather vs TBA March 13 Vegas as MGM Grand, what a let down for boxing and its fans.

2010-01-08T17:42:00.001-08:00

hopefully these two and their camps can get the acts together and JUST FIGHT, damn

2010-01-08T17:41:00.001-08:00

So my SHUT UP AND FIGHT shout out to Floyd and Manny was not enough, looks like we will have to wait till fall for the fight to take place.

2010-01-04T15:10:00.001-08:00

I suggest they not only have a mediator but a psychiatrist and a psychologist their as well, cause they are crazy if they don't make the fight now.
SMITTYOUT

2010-01-04T15:08:00.001-08:00

Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao will meet with mediator tomorrow to try and salvage their fight that is threatened over blood testing.

For any of us associated with the 1972 UNBEATEN MIAMI DOLPHINS, once again, for the 37 year in a row, LET THE CHAMPAGNE FLOW. Still the only Unbeaten NFL TEAM.

Check out inthiscornertv.com and my latest column about what Floyd and Manny should do, which is"SHUT UP AND FIGHT" HAPPY HOLIDAYS SMITTYOUT.

2009-12-19T20:32:00.001-08:00

Well is anyone is going to go unbeaten like MY 72 Dolphins it will have to be Peyton Manning and the Colts. It's been 37 years. SMITTYOUT

2009-12-17T20:19:00.001-08:00

but only one will prevail, if one of them goes unbeaten it will be of all places my hometown of Miami at the SuperBowl. Wow, it's looking like it may happen this year Smittyout

2009-12-17T20:18:00.001-08:00

Colts, and Peyton Manning and that other guy Brees and New Orleans are really looking like teams of destiny

2009-12-17T20:17:00.001-08:00

Well for all of us 72 Dolphin-ites, I think our 37 year run of perfection is in HUGE TROUBLE, Spell it

2009-12-12T22:46:00.001-08:00

Bradly over Peterson as I thought very very good fight, Malignaggie my pal Paulie poetic justice in rematch with Diaz, as for Vitali Klitischko over Kevin Johnson, horrible, terrible, fight. SUCKED. Wow Im so so happy im from ALI, FRAZIER, HOLMES, TYSON, HOLYFIELD, LEWIS, AND THAT I KNOW ABOUT ALL THE GREATS. HBO ANNOUNCERS THAT DID NOT FIGHT, OTHER THAN MERCHANT HAVE NOOOOOO CLUE. SMITTYOUT.

Steve is really one of the my last links to Smittys Sportstalk, and Smittys Ringside Seat. We used to also at times watch my now beautiful 18 year old

2009-12-07T10:14:00.001-08:00

Long before my TV Show and Webstuff I started in radio in Ft. Myers Florida in 1985, one of my first employees, co host, sales and marketing person and MY FRIEND Steve Zimmerman just passed away.

2009-12-06T14:18:00.001-08:00

Unbeaten team. I hope not being of the 72 ilk but it would not surprise me this year. Manning and Brees are playing brilliant football. We'll see how it plays out in the end. SMITTYOUT

2009-12-06T14:16:00.003-08:00

Especially my friend Paul Warfield. I feel the way Indy and NO are playing and the way the continue to finds ways to win, or their opponents find ways to lose, that this might, just might be the year of another

2009-12-06T14:16:00.001-08:00

I think all of us 72 Dolphins folks maybe in a bit of trouble holding on to our long time unbeaten streak. I was a ball boy for that team and still remain close with so many players.

2009-12-06T10:54:00.001-08:00

Chris Arreola on the same card look very sloppy and as usual out of shape in beating Brian Minto. Arreola is just above an average heavyweight period.
SMITTYOUT

2009-12-06T10:52:00.001-08:00

of Martinez off his southpaw style. May Williams a southpaw himself really had problems coping with Martinez. The two should rematch when they heal up, they and the fans deserve it.

2009-12-06T10:50:00.001-08:00

Paul Williams and Sergio Martinez put on one hell of a fight last night. Williams got the nod but it could have gone the other way or been a draw. Paul exposed to being hit especially with the Rt hook

2009-12-05T18:46:00.001-08:00

trainer and pal of mine Freddie Roach. Off to check out the HBO fights and Paul Williams. SMITTYOUT.

2009-12-05T18:45:00.001-08:00

It took him but 72 seconds to knock out Dmitriy Salita. Nice Job Amir, we look forward to doing an entire show with you soon. Also good job to his

2009-12-05T18:43:00.001-08:00

Once again hanging out with Smitty proves good.
Amir Khan who is featured at inthiscornertv.com got the job done swiftly earlier this evening in England.

2009-12-04T09:17:00.001-08:00

over the years have so changed the course of boxing history. I will begin soon to illustrate some of what the extra 3 rounds has meant to the sport. SMITTYOUT.

2009-12-04T09:16:00.001-08:00

Floyd and Manny could make over 30 million apiece for this fight maybe more, boxing fans and even these fighters deserve the extra 9 minutes that

2009-12-04T09:15:00.001-08:00

Now lets really get the debate going. Go to inthiscornertv.com and vote 15 rounds that made all the greats legends or 12 rounds 9 minutes shy of true greatness.

2009-12-04T09:14:00.001-08:00

So we have had some nice initial conversation about my proposal for the Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao fight to be 15 rounds instead of 12.

2009-12-03T14:42:00.001-08:00

It is a special fight, a super fight, the rules of the game for this one should be special. 9 extra minutes for the fighters and the fans. What do you think???????

2009-12-03T14:41:00.001-08:00

Floyd Mayweather Jr. VS Manny Pacquiao should be scheduled for 15 ROUND. 15 rounds like Robinson vs Lamotta, Pep vs Saddler, Ali vs Frazier, Leonard vs Hearns

2009-12-03T14:40:00.001-08:00

I want EVERY Boxing Fan or person to have their say on this next statement by ME James Smith aka
Smitty

2009-12-02T19:12:00.001-08:00

what do you think? Mayweather vs Pacquiao almost, I said almost a done deal, SMITTYOUT

2009-12-02T19:11:00.001-08:00

the heavyweight crown at age 45 but Bernard as great as he is aint no BIG GEORGE. It should now be Bernard vs my buddy Bad Chad Dawson,

2009-12-02T19:09:00.001-08:00

So Hopkins did his job winning easy decision. Says he wants to be heavyweight. Well he will soon be 45. Now Big George Foreman won

2009-12-02T17:12:00.001-08:00

Jones Jr as I have always said, Roy was a Great Athlete who could box. Bernard who lost to Jones via u dec back in 1993, Hopkins is a great FIGHTER.
Back with Hopkins report later. SMITTYOUT

2009-12-02T17:09:00.001-08:00

YES Jones KOED in 1rst round by Green. Well there goes his fight with Bernard Hopkins who fights tonite. The big difference between Hopkins and

2009-12-02T17:08:00.001-08:00

People as me did I think it was a dangerous fight for Roy Jones Jr against Danny Green. My answer was with Roy's chin YES. The answer turned out to be

2009-11-28T20:50:00.003-08:00

Smittyout.

2009-11-28T20:50:00.001-08:00

Nice performance by Lucian Bute, stopping Librado Andrade with a couple of well placed hooks, first upstairs than the coup de gras to the body.

2009-11-28T20:09:00.001-08:00

Guzman may have won 3 or 4 rounds at most. Terrible judging. Hopefully the Bute, Andrade fight will be better judged.

2009-11-28T20:08:00.001-08:00

Obviously they can't add or judge in Quebec Canada based on what they just did to Ali Feneka calling his fight with Joan Guzman a draw.

2009-11-21T20:25:00.001-08:00

Andre Ward looked very good, in defeating a very bad looking one dimensional Mikkel Kessler. Ward looked like the Gold Medalist he is NICE JOB.

2009-11-16T00:32:00.001-08:00

THIS. MANNY HAS GAINED 40 LBS AND GOTTEN FRICKEN HOW EVER YOU SPELL THAT BETTER. MORE LATER. SMITTYOUT///

2009-11-16T00:30:00.003-08:00

Pac Man vs Pretty Boy. ONE THING I WILL BREAK HERE FIRST NO FIGHTER THAT I KNOW HAS DONE

2009-11-16T00:30:00.001-08:00

Just did my pal JT the Bricks radio show, number 1 sports show in america, and we talked about how there is only 1 fight

2009-11-15T00:58:00.003-08:00

Earlier in the day we had a very interesting conversation with newly crowned WBA Heavyweight Champion David Haye that you will be able to see soon at inthiscornertv.com

2009-11-15T00:56:00.001-08:00

Cotto was only trying to survive about the last 5 rounds it seemed. Had a nice chat with Freddie Roach that will be at inthiscornertv.com tomorrow.

2009-11-15T00:55:00.001-08:00

Well it's time for PacMan and Pretty Boy Floyd wouldn't you agree? Very good performance by Manny against a tough but totally outgunned Cotto.

2009-11-14T09:29:00.001-08:00

Who is your pick tonite? Mine is Pac Man in 6, for my complete breakdown go to inthiscornertv.com.

Just hours away from Pacquiao vs Cotto tonite at the MGM Grand here in Vegas. Spent the day yesterday with Sugar Shane Mosley.

2009-11-07T23:32:00.001-08:00

but for the tattooed, muscular, stiff, caucasian persuasion, Fedor along with Anderson Silva are the best. SMITTYOUT

2009-11-07T23:20:00.001-08:00

Fedor wins stops Rogers in round 2 with sloppy but big right hand. Fedor is a better case Chuck Liddle. MMA, so not on a level with boxing. So watered down athletes.

2009-11-07T20:24:00.001-08:00

I will be back to give you a post fight report on Fedor vs Rogers. SMITTYOUT

2009-11-07T14:57:00.001-08:00

Haye good defensively but did not throw enough until the final round. This will make for some good stuff now in heavyweight division.

2009-11-07T14:56:00.001-08:00

Well as I predicted Haye wins decision and is new WBA Heavyweight Champ. It could have been a draw or one point either way.
