Former WBA super middleweight champion Callum Smith’s fight against Carlos Galvan wasn’t placed on the main card for some reason, despite him being the best known of any fighter and the most talented. Smith-Galvan is scheduled for eight rounds, and is seen as a tune-up. It’s expected to be a one-sided fight with Smith destroying Galvan, but still, that match is more appealing to the average fan than any of the undercard fights.
